Dazed and Confused

Out of interest, do you think Sony is the first to do this? I'm getting the impression that a lot of people do.

I think this might be one of those 'Google was the first search engine' or 'the...

But that's not a different concept, which is what everybody seems to think is the innovation here - it's just a slightly different design.

It's like people waiting until the second DSLR to come...

How does it differ from using a GoPro Hero 3 and the free app for remote viewing, release, etc on any Amdroid or iOS device?

Surely the Sonys can't be that different, apart from the fact they come...

"the Nikon 17-35/2.8 for example, the Tokina 11-16/2.8 is another one."

But that's my point - those aren't standard zooms. They're both wide zooms - the first for Full Frame, the...

These comments have made me realise that lots of people don't understand what the 'standard' in standard zoom means....

@JDThomas

The Nikon 17-35mm f/2.8 is a full frame wide zoom, not a DX standard zoom.

I do not understand why everyone is stating that the limited zoom is not a 'con'. It is. It just may not be...

Viewfindr.com seems to fit the bill.  It's new, so doesn't have loads on there yet, but it seems to do exactly what you want - places nearby, different types of places (street art, birds,...

Why does f/6.9 sound good on paper? Because it's a bigger number than f/2.8?

Do you really think that consumers are that stupid?

"I bought the car that's 0-60 in 12s, as it's a bigger number...

Opportunity missed - if it was a 61x zoom I'd have bought it.

It does have a cap - there's a switchable one built in.

How do I know this? Well, handily there's a direct link to a review of the lens on this very page.....

Am I alone in not using a body cap?

I always have a lens on my camera when it's in the bag. I reach in, take out the camera, and remove and pocket the lens cap as I lift the camera to my...

I saw a 3 year old using an S31 on holiday. Initially I thought she was way too young, but she really new what she was doing

Picked it up, switched it on, took a photo, switched to review mode to...

Thanks for that. I was struggling with the subtlety....

I admire your perseverance, DPReview, but I fear that you're banging your head against a brick wall.

Marrakech in 2010 - no issues at all.  Didn't hear a single 'No photo', or get any demands for money.  I didn't take any portriats, however - just architecture, zoomed out 'group' shots, objects in...

The article says "This is a fairly large open compartment for personals like clothing items, lunch bags and other gear." Isn't that perfect for "a jacket, cap, water, maybe a lunch, sun screen or...
