Yea, I have seen some of the ancient photos from 100 or more years ago before, they are incredible.  I also have a photograph-calendar of some of Ansel Adams most famous landscape photos and...

Thanks, apafio, I will check out the work of those photographers, it sounds like the type of thing I am looking for. That said, I am also particularly interested not just in photos from that era...

So, basically, until I became more interested in photography a few years ago, I wasn't even AWARE that there was such a thing as high quality photos from the "olden days" (I'm in my 20's).  I was...

Well, from what I've seen they have been improving EXTREMELY rapidly, and are continuing to do so.  Personally I would ALREADY prefer the best of the current EVF's to an OVF, because I think their...

I've never understood why NOT having a mirror would make autofocusing WORSE.  I always assumed it would be the exact opposite.  I would've though that by not having a mirror in the way, you could...

Ah.  That sucks.

Maybe I will invent a Standardized method of testing I.S., using some sort of elaborate vibrating/shaking/wiggling machine that has several different settings do mimic different types of shakes. ...

Preferably Nikon, Canon, or Sony, since they have ff cams in their lineups, and Canon and Nikon in particular already have a nice big, high quality lens lineup.Btw, that reminds me, does the...

So, basically what I'm referring to is like the Panasonic G5 or G10 or Gh3 or whichever was the one that had a DSLR-style body but without having a mirror flipper thing and optical viewfinder, but...

Yea, I think the key word(s) in tkbslc's post was "at best".Cuz it's like, of course there is a "within reason" aspect to it.  Like, for example, just because it gives you *at best* 3 stops worth...

It is indeed "dangerous thinking" to some extent, lol.  But that's how I roll, livin' life on the edge babyyyyy hahaha.  I mean, not really, but I know what you mean.  I can see it now:  The major...

Yea, you're right, this concept would actually be great for surveillance use. Basically just never have to point and optically zoom in on anything and instead just have very wide-angle photos and...

Okay, so as we all know, point and shoot cameras tend to have MUCH much much more pixels per sensor-area than larger sensor non-point and shoot cameras like m4/3, APS-C, or full frame cameras such...

I think I'm gonna go on a hunger strike until Nikon releases an optional version d7100 that has an AA filter.

With the d800 vs d800e articles on here as well as other highly respected photography...

Uh didn't dpreview compare the two cameras specifically to see the pros/cons and which one was better in which shooting situations/overall/etc, and they said that the d800e (the one without the...

huh?

They seriously aren't even having it be like a 7100e and a d7100 where you can pick whether or not to have an AA? Are you freaking kidding me? Wtf!? According to articles on here as well as...

Okay, I looked at the 2nd link, and although that one isn't exactly the type of comparison I wanted, I think I still got a decent feel for the severity of the impact of the smaller sensor of the...

Yea, I know. For 90+% of my photos, there probably wouldn't even be any background blur, at all, for the types of photos I usually do (landscape/cityscape/etc), but occasionally i like to have an...

In one of the DPReview Group Tests of various high-end point and shoot cameras (i.e. RX100, XF10, XZ-2, etc etc) they had this chart thingie where they broke down, in numerical format, which...
