One explanation is the following: While doing focus adjustment tests (nothing to do with any AF problem, but trying to optimize all my lenses to my camera), I noticed that correcting a small AF...

Sorry, but it's a paper magazine and it's in French... they ran the DxO tests and the main drawback is IQ at tele end, the tripod collar is not that great either. I'd be waiting for other tests and...

The new 80-400 has a great VR and was recently tested by a reknown photo magazine, at 80 mm, it's truly excellent, unfortunately, IQ decreases with focal and is just average at 400 mm. It's an OK...

I hope you will have a wonderful time in France. Just my 2 ct: both Paris and Nice are very large cities and for street photogrpahy, the 24-70 should be fine, you will hardly need any other lens...

Peter,Thank you sooo much for yor kind advice, whta would be the best setup to get something close to a beauty dish ?Again thanks

I hear you, but I found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Mount-To-Bowens-Mounts-Ring-Adapter-Studio-Flash-Strobe-/300788835530?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item46086964ca It looks like a...

Just ordered 3 of those units for my portable studio (I wanted something cheap since I lost 2 Elinchrom recently... one broken during transportation, the other stolen from my car :( I'm prett sure...

I mean you can remove dust in post on a single pic fairly easily, now, try that on a video... DPReview007 wrote:

I own Nikon but use Canon at work (I work as assistant in a studio, shoot weddings etc...) Up to iso 6400, both D600 and 6D are extremely close, D600 is a hair better at low iso, above iso 6400,...

Make sure gps is well disabled in the menu before switching off the camera. You should be aware that the gps remains fully active if enabled even when camera is off. This is required to avoid...

DxO is a good source for reliable reviews, see here: http://www.dxomark.com/index.php/Lenses/Camera-Lens-Database/Nikon/AF-S-NIKKOR-24-120mm-f-4G-ED-VR/(camera)/440 Make sure you click the...

Forgot, make sure when click the "Resolution" tab that you also select various field positions to see how the lens performs at center, thirds and edges

The 24-120 was tested on DxO and given its range, it's really good BUT it shows a visible weakness around 85 mm... Just click this link, then click the "Resolution" tab if sharpness is what you're...

You make a good point here, but one thing that is really wrong with DxO ratings is the fact tthey're using max values only for their scores. The other thing about the weighting is that it does not...

This is bad news for Canon, Sony sensor technology is a step above what Canon offers for now...Canon used to be the leader in sensor technology until the D3 was released, not only Nikon has taken...

Anyone knows how to use speedlite af assist without firing flash (5d2 + ex 430) ?

I just switched from Nikon to 5D2, but for other reasons (I come from D90, it died and I wanted to go FF...)I have extensive experience with the D700 and find it a wonderful camera, there's very...

Beats me, now I wen through th emanual and now I just don't know waht setting I should change to restore this feature, I really want this AF-ON button to focus in LV mode, anyone else?

Hiya all,I'm a long time Nikon user and still shooting with a D90, had a 2nd hand D700 real cheap cuz LCD was cracked but it died 2 weeks ago and the major repair is too expensive to be worth it. I...

I don't deny that the 5d3 is a wonderful camera in almost every regard (I'd love to see a Nikon FF with Exmor of same pixel count and fps) but the 5d3 sensor, while being great, is lagging behind...
