I was wondering whether standardised RAW support (DNG?) solves that problem for many. Any thoughts on that?
-
What else have you tried? It's always good to get a bit of context/perspective to 5 star reviews. I find 3 star reviews more informative than 1 or 5 star.

And Gimp is relatively slow. Photoshop will use all your cores.

Gimp's not a patch on Photoshop. I've used both and would dearly love to be able to afford Photoshop for my own private use. To those who understand the importance: Gimp is not yet more than...

Does photoshop 7 have nested and non-destructive layers?
-
I often use Irfanview (though usually I use GIMP) and have it matched to the smartcurves adobe-compatible plugin (it's here : http://members.chello.at/easyfilter/curves.html ). I get a very...

Where's Serif Photoplus? Photoplus has nested and non-destructive adjustment layers, as well as full on editing capabilities and macros/batch processing. It used to be unusably buggy with...

Bokeh can certainly be measured and quantified. Look up circles of confusion +bokeh if you are unsure on this point. The dpreview review mentions that it has bokeh issues. "It is a 135 format...

Not on APS-C. Must I really be spelling that out on dpreview? Or perhaps this is an example of a fullframer reaching "less than fullframe does not exist" nirvana.

The Sigma has bokeh issues. For a 50mm (equiv) lens, that's simply inexcusable. And the Dpreview article has, as usual, inadequate bokeh testing and sample pics. For some kinds of photography,...

Trouble is, it's not garbage and it's the only show in town. :(

Have to agree with that. Gimp is nowhere near Photoshop. No nested layers, no non-destructive adjustment layers, 8 bit etc
-
Photoshop is a monopoly and the nearest thing to it was Serif Photoplus, not Gimp, but it Serif obviously didn't eat their own dog food, as the saying goes, since despite the nested layers,...

Photoshop is a defacto monopoly. But that doesn't mean they can do whatever they like since they risk motivating the development of a cheaper or free competitor. The problem with this cloud...

'massaged' is just a nicely expressed way of saying over manipulated. So are you saying that you disagree with that analysis? It seems to me to be a good point.

I made a counterpoint to the over-excited people here who are not familiar with Sigma zooms. Sure, they may do a good job but it remains to be seen and I'm not hopeful. As it happens, rounded...

Thankyou for your kind reply.

Sigma zoom bokeh tends to be harsh. And the performance of their normal zooms is fairly poor. I won't be making any changes to plans based on this announcement.

It should still be considerably lighter and smaller than the equivalent fullframe.

Media is a distinct entity, distinct from day to day living. It should, like any human/on-animal activity, be subject to responsible (and limited) restraints in the service of the greater good and...
