My Canon FF DSLR's handle low light better and are also faster at focusing. That being said, the XP1 handles low light extremely well and has a more pleasing noise structure reminiscent of grain...

Nice shot! Iceland has some of the most beautiful landscapes I've seen and you captured it wonderfully. If you don't lose a few cameras over your lifetime trying to get "the shot" you're probably...

Quite true. If you are insuring some expensive camera gear and your not a professional, it can be beneficial to alert your insurance company to some of your possessions. When it comes to fires....

I've heard all of those, and more than once!!!! Hilarious!!!... or sad. Funny thing is, is that no matter how far along you are in your photography career, you still get these.

More importantly, were you able to save your SD card?

You can also look at it as a starting point at which individuals can customize it to their own tastes. Personally, I just use a half case, a soft release and a piece of electrical tape over the...

I imagine the paper also owns a pretty good selection of professional camera bodies and lenses that journalists will also have access too. I'm sure the newspaper will continue to hire freelance...

The cycle starts out with cutting the salaries and laying off the highest paid creatives in order to survive a financial crunch. The result is a lower quality product. Repeat this cycle a enough...

Mike,
You have a point. The decision makers are always higher on the totem pole than the people who do the grunt work. When it comes to lay-offs, who does management look to first. Not themselves...

I don't think shooting with an iPhone would be an issue for an actual photographer. It's a great photographic tool in the right hands. Giving one to a writer and expecting decent content.... you...

That's the real issue right there. Too many people dismiss the importance of a skill set just because it's in a creative field.

I think this is one of the attitudes that are killing newspapers or more so, newspaper companies. Moving towards web based news vs. print is one thing. Lowering quality because you think the news...

I have an X100 with a lens hood and a knock-off of the OEM version. Essentially the same, but made from PU leather. The lens hood is useful, but not essential. The lens has pretty good control of...

You probably could damage your sensor by pointing it at the sun through a lens for long enough. Sort of like burning something with a magnifying glass. Of course taking a long enough exposure of...

They either got the dates wrong or the model.

I'd also say none. I really like the way Fuji renders colors and no other camera brand I've shot matches up without a little RAW post work. If I had to pick a second, I'd go with the original Canon...

I generally don't use the hood or filter. If I need a hood, I use my hand. The case keeps the camera well protected. I just throw it in my bag, hang in over my shoulder... and not worry about it....

Depends on what you shoot. If you mainly shoot people, then you don't really need it since you're going to have issues with motion blur below 1/60 which is before camera shake becomes a problem...

What speed is your memory card? On my XP1 it is painfully slow if I put in a slow memory card. I've seen a similar phenomena when using a 15mb/s card, but with my 95mb/s card everything is much...

Never had any issues with dust. No dust is one of the advantages of a fix lens camera since most dust is introduced when changing lenses.
