I totally agree with both of you, and to expand on that: I have always used a significant amount of ambient background/fill light with off-camera strobe lighting, but the D3 and subsequently D3s...

I give Nikon enough credit to assume that they would not post a bad conversion to their samples page. But really, and I have used a non-AA Nikon camera extensively, I have never seen moiré appear...

LoL. Moiré denial bites the dust with that one! Note the false geometric patterns in the gold area. That is the worst part of moiré that you can't get rid of with any convenient tool. You pretty...

As an event shooter, I hope you're being sarcastic. Super high resolution at an event is an asset but also a liability. Just as often it will be essential to have a lower resolution higher ISO body...

Exactly! Any number put on how often moiré occurs will be anecdotal by nature and specific to the sample in question... You could easily have a shoot in which the occurrence is more or less by a...

No, it will just happen slightly further away from the camera for a given object/pattern. It happens on the 22-24 MP sensors of current Canon and Nikon's, so with only a 50 percent linear gain it...

Thanks for bringing that up. I can't believe I didn't think to mention it. I use the CLS at pretty much every shoot, and it is so much better than Canon's version that it's not even funny. Better...

Yes I also love this lens, but I can't resist answering a few of the common non-answers here: First, it is not "just a few steps," because at many types of event (wedding and concert pits, for...

Not always. The only shot I take that absolutely must be macro at a wedding is the ring shot, and with the right composition I can get away without the macro. The old 70-200 VR1 with true 200mm...

I definitely notice it! It's a major pain in the @$$ when doing detail shots, because you get far less magnification and will need to also carry either a 1.4x TC or a close-up attachment lens or a...

Another ignorant statement. If you watched film at all, you would know that existing film systems often feature shall DoF shots with the /focus pullers/ (actual people *not* an AF system) moving...

We already did that, so there is no point. It is true that photographing below freezing is difficult, so it is understandable that you could not be bothered, as you clearly have no dedication...

Miniaturization as a trend cannot defeat basic geometric and physical properties/laws that affect photography. In your fantasy world of embed-only cameras the imagery will be crapified by those...

Those are fantastic. I really love the framing on shots 10 and 14 especially. -- David Hill http://www.sanfranciscoweddingphotographer.com San Francisco & San Jose, CA | Austin,...

We still print quite large. Big prints may be a bit out of fashion, but books and albums still sell. A two page spread in common sizes means that you are printing 21 to 25 inches wide. -- David...

With regard to the rigs and the ergonomics, keep in mind that DSLRs are primarily being championed for video by those who shoot cinematically. The original newsgathering focus got lost in all the...

It's not a stretch at all. Why don't you ask many of the respected cinematographers who have snuck 7D and 5Dm2 shots into feature films that you have probably seen in movie theaters by now. They...

That's funny. To me 10K images would be more like a day of multiple sporting events, but I won't pass judgment. I will however give you my typical numbers: with wedding day coverage ranging from 6...

Yes, if the light is terrible I try to get a minimum of 1/250 for walking down aisle by bumping the ISO anywhere up to the 50K level as required. 1/320-500th much better when the ISO is reasonable....

Excellent point, and I totally agree. I especially noticed that on the 1dm3. I thought at the time the 1dm2 had been smoother looking. Lots of commentators like to say the Nikon look is more "film...
