24mp would just make my PC chug along much slower with little practical difference in the outcome of my photos. I don't print posters. ...but it's hard to fight progress....

It's one of the unwritten features of that camera: it makes you want to take more pictures.

I feel I've been taken to Pepperland on a yellow submarine...

Wow, people are already getting defensive about their EM-5s... A new camera ought to be better in specs than its counterparts. If it wasn't "better", what's the point of making a new camera? The...

The "design" you refer to is what is known (to the academic community) as adaptation. This is related to the interactions an animal has with his environment. The idea goes that, through many...

Paintings, yes. Drawings, yes. But photos, not so much, because they're really just a snapshot of one particular moment with no beginning or end. A painting is different because the artist can...

A picture can't tell a story all by itself (perhaps if you use multiple exposures, say, of a person slipping on ice, etc...) What a picture does is complement a story, and fuel our imaginations...

I tried 3, and I didn't like it. I can't quite put my finger on it, but for me it just seemed like I didn't have as much control. I don't consider it an upgrade of any significance. What I...

most people pose with their family members (or a clown, or a character, or something) in front of the camera. I would think that photographing a racecar, or some very fast moving object >15mph is a...

at the low end, the best value is put squarely on the DSLR. It's a lower price, comes with an adequate kit lens that introduces you into your brand's world of lenses, PDAF, all kinds of features,...

that's pretty cool. I wish they could do this in America: open interesting galleries and use them as interactive promotional vehicles for cameras.

What advantage does a smartphone have over a DSLR? It's definitely not IQ, nor sensor size (and all the advantages a large sensor brings). It's all about size, convenience, and the ability to share...

I'm thinking it may be something along those lines. As these are numbers of units shipped, it may be a problem with the retailers moreso than with consumers. I wonder if maybe too many products...

I wouldn't call it "creepier", but more like "archaic"...

security purposes...copyright security more like it.

FF is tempting--damn tempting--but for a middle-class wage earning photo enthusiast it's still too expensive for an incremental improvement in low light and DOF. Might be fine for people who make a...

I figure because it's cropped so much the noise reduction might be making the colours look less than perfect--especially on the face. Nevertheless, I think the point is made that images from this...

The capture software may also be enhancing some colours or other aspects of the photo (especially if the resolution of the photo is smaller) and making it more attractive at general...
