  • Commented on Just Posted: Fujifilm X20 review news story

    Are you for real?

    Even if the photo quality was only as good as a camera phone (which it's not based on the last test of camera phones done on this site) then the X20 is still not DOA. It has...

    You've just got to use M mode if that's what you want to do. I don't know why it behaves this way, and it is a bit annoying, but at least there is that work around.

    Not if you use M mode.

    Don't forget that the X20 is much brighter through its zoom range as well.

    I enjoy the X20 and agree with the review. While image quality at higher ISO speeds is nothing to write home about, the rest of the camera (ergonomics, optical viewfinder, great lens, solid build...

  • Seems to me that I'll be waiting a bit longer until I can truly leave my camera at home for day-to-day shots. I will continue to carry my well loved Canon A570 IS with me wherever I go.

  • I love that he's "only" using a 40D to take these amazing photos. It just goes to show that it really is the photographer and the technique that makes most of the difference.

  • Firstly, that was a very nice gift for your daughter.

    Secondly, calm down. You bought a camera. You made the decision you felt was best for you. You are happy with that decision, so why do you...

  • I'm disappointed by the lack of detail in JPEGs and built in flash.

    I'm just not comfortable enough to shoot RAW exclusively yet, and the small flash on my 7D makes a great fill flash.

    I guess...

  • Ulfric is right. If the word ends in an S, you do not add and apostrophe S because it would be awkward to say.

  • @highwave: There's nothing wrong with the RX100's lens. It, like the Canon G1 X, doesn't focus well at that close distance so they seem soft, however, real world results are much better.

  • The new G does very well compared to the competition. I was expecting a greater difference between the RX100 and the G, but that's not what I'm seeing.

    All of the cameras are great, and I'm sure...

  • @chafouin: I admit, I don't shoot RAW, but please don't take my enthusiast card away. I love photography, I just need to get more comfortable shooting RAW.

  • @Combatmedic: You're right, and I don't print very large, but I'm a pixel peeper, for better or worse.

  • I had the XZ-1 for about a year, and while I loved the lens' sharpness and wide aperture I was never pleased with photo quality above ISO 400, it looked more like a watercolor painting than a photo...

  • I actually enjoy the comments section. I've learned some new facts and gained perspectives I didn't have before.

    As for the ignorant and the trolls, I just skip them.

  • I agree, my SD850 IS took much cleaner images at low ISO speeds than the newer compact models. As such, I've stayed away from compacts completely, except for a waterproof model, which is only good...

  • So happy about the auto ISO maximum setting. The 7D is way too happy to use ISO 3200.

  • Thanks everyone for your advice.At the end of the day I decided that I'll probably have the 7D for a few more years at least, so I picked up a used EF-S 10-22 off of eBay for $635. Now, I will...
  • Replied in Thanks!
    Thanks for the advice. I'll look into the Sigma lens, although I do admit to wanting to stick with Canon lenses I'm open to other options.I will likely sell the 7D when I go FF, which is why I'm...
