I tried using pinpoint focus, but I found the view would "zoom in," acquire focus and "zoom out" upon AF acquisition. I found this zoomed in view to be quite grainy when shooting in low-light...

I took out a GH3 w/ 12-35 2.8 for a 5 day event in the last few weeks. Since I am a dyed in the wool FF or near FF (APS-H) shooter in the past with a bulk of L or L mk.2 zooms in tow, trying to...

Carry both.. depends on your frame of mind on the particular day you plan on going shooting. If I'm working a 16-35/24-70 is a must as a missed shot or a moment lost is unacceptable. I tried a...

When the newer .18 micron Canon sensors are abound, and the DXO comparisons are rebalanced accordingly in Canon's favour, then will this be definitive? I notice Nikon isn't being compared, because...

I agree that m43 does compromise on image quality, ISO performance and AF performance. The m43 system is definitely lightweight, but not low cost. Many of these bodies are priced in a premium...

I see many images highlighting the ability for the D800/E to recover such dramatically underexposed images. Since DR and Resolution are the easiest to directly measure, these become the calling...

I sold my 24-105 up here in Canada for about $775 used with a filter a few weeks ago. I used the 24-105 a lot, especially on location as it covers a large range of lengths without needed a lens...

I shoot less than 10% of my images like the ones below, as I am at f8+ working with strobes, but the merits of FF of achieving DoF cannot be ignored. The B&W images are 85mm 1.2 @ f1.6 and f2.2 and...

This is also what keeps m4/3 out of my bag as well. I am still waiting for a pro-body m4/3 as well offering comparable c-af to my Canon kit, iso 100 and 1/8000 shutter speed among other things...

I put up an earlier video of some Twixtored RX100 footage. I went back and re-did a new one. After a day of mounting/unmounting the camera from booms, sliders and trips to the pc to download the...

I had just gotten the camera yesterday.. Didn't even wait for a full charge. Recorded 3 clips and was interested to see how it fared after a twixtor treatment. There is some warping present on the...

I was just there this afternoon :) Looks like I had to add my own version. I'm from the Canon camp, so I had to choose my background accordingly. Chee is separated nicely from the background.. It's...

Thanks, I know about that already. That was the same as previous bodies. But that would mean having to store those on a separate card and load them each time.Eventually I'll find a compromise to...

One thing that I found very different and annoying is the loss of the 3 banks for saving custom functions on the 1dx. In its place, I have 3 custom shooting modes C1, C2, C3. This is less than...

I should probably do a better search before asking this, but I noticed a strange occurence after mounting the new 40mm 2.8 STM on a new 1Dx body. After awhile, the camera would start to act...

I think this is a fair comment. I've run the gamut in mirrorless systems. From the E-Ps to the NEX 7s to the X-Pro 1s and pretty much everything in between. At the end of the day, I usually find...
