Try pushing the shadows and you will see the difference.

There have been some threads recently on Panasonic and Olympus camera businesses being unprofitable and concerns they would shut down. The same is true of Sony, actually some analysts and investors...

I like this one a lot, but not entirely sure it is my personal favorite. However, based on reactions in forums it appears to be most people's favorite of my shots. G1/14-45

No, registration distance has no effect on corner sharpness nor on the angle of incidence of light at the corners.  What does affect that is exit pupil distance. Which is not related to register...

The sensor must always remain in the plane of focus, thus it can only shift vertically, horizontally and rotate.  Any of the other three axes of motion would result in a change of the plane of...

CNC's and the like that have "7-axis" or any other such number are moving more than one object.  So, for instance, there may be movements of both the bed and the tool, which can add up to more than...

You will have to actively go out of your way to have it not corrected.  All JPEGs are corrected in camera and every commercial RAW converter out there will correct it as well.  Unless you use...

It's a fun little lens.  The common criticism is that it isn't that much sharper than the 14-45, but of course the zoom is a lot bigger. I'm sure you are aware, but just in case, be sure to buy a...

I made a post specifically about landscapes above, but I wanted to add, if I was going to move back into DSLR land for me it would certainly be a FF and not a APS-C.  APS-C DSLRs have advantages...

I've ranged all over the place, both when using film and when using digital.  That said I did use both film and digital SLRs in the past before m43 existed. When I switched to m43 I had been...

Very nice shot!  A nit-picker would call it an environmental portrait, not a landscape ;) Yes, FF is going to give you better DoF control - we all know that, and your shot is a good...

The 10-22 is an excellent lens and a must have for most Canon APS-C landscape shooters - though consider the Sigma and Tokina alternatives as well.  Problem is that UWA lenses are a perfect way to...

I've never seen a FF take a better landscape. A bigger landscape (print size) yes, but better no. Unless you are printing very large regularly FF won't help your landscapes.  FF for landscape is...

+1 to all of this.

I am not all sure he's relying on that myth, he was just explaining how DoF works under the constant magnification constraint. Whether shallow DoF is desirable is another question neither of us...

Good point.  Though I was more thinking of the 35-100/2.8 as 100/2.8 prime combined with other primes.  But upon further reflection, since he says he sold his 45 and 75 that pretty much answers...

By that logic the 100-300 at the 300 end is the best portrait lens :) Thanks, that's actually a useful experience you relate. One question, at least for portraits are you finding you are using the...

Thanks for the information on the fringing.  I remember having seen someone else demonstrate that but I forgot to mention it in my post.  Good example photos as well, and thanks for pointing out...

As micksh6 already explained it would be you suffering this condition, or more specifically you are confused about the context and practical applications of DoF. Of course it is, for the same...
