vime1971: Well, challenge's over and I wonder: is the 4th place "white goat" really a white goat? :D Never seen one like that (and I saw many goats in my life)... Anyway, congrats to everybody...

Yep, these are deers, not goat.

I like the shot, but it's too bad for the watermark in the middle of the shot, i'll remove 1.5 points for that...

gl2k: Nice cam but Canon seems to be years behind Sony when it comes to sensor technology. Compare the noise of the Canon with Sonys new NEX F3 in RAW mode.

Ijustloveshooting, maybe it's the right time for you to get a eye surgery :)

Lan: "Fans of LCD image composition, who will be disappointed by the slow AF, and anyone who wants filter effects at the point of capture."

You're quite right, I am disappointed by anyone who wants filter effects at the point of capture ;)

Seriously though; is it me, or are those some of the worse JPEGs in the class? The RAW files show lots of detail in the medallion, it's almost completely missing from the JPEGs.

I agree, those jpg (at hi iso) are terrible !
Chasseur d'image Magazine make the same statement, they give a note of 3/5 to the camera, they said something like "one of the worst jpg quality ever"
The thread on Chasseur d'Image's forum about the test & jpg (in french, sorry.)
http://www.chassimages.com/forum/index.php/topic,156777.0.html
BUT, the tester says too that the sensor is very good, and raw are excellent.

On Corn challenge (10 comments in total)

Corn is not mature at this date in Europe, it's too bad to limit the contributions to images shot after the annoucement. I have some nice corn shots... But from last year !

Exposure compensation, +1 ?
For a nightshot, isn't it better to use a negative value, like -1 or -2Ev ?

It's strange, but it's a 200iso shot, and it looks like there is some noise reduction.

On Sony DSC RX100 Hands-on Preview preview (540 comments in total)

I need a compact camera with a wide sensor, but i didn't need 20mpxls...
Too bad, it looks like a nice camera.

In reply to:

dbo: When Nikon released the 1 series I thought why Sony (who produces the sensor of it) doesn't talk about a high end compact - although I know that Nikon has for those sensors 1/2 year sole commercial explotation rights when using it.

Now i know. Rhe RX100 looks great, offers featurewise almost everything we need (at least on paper). BUT - no external flash possible, and the integrated one looks awkward than the NEX7' one.... (meaning more or less useless)

Unfortunately Sony goes for this "hierarchy Pixel amount", so it was in their understanding to put more pixel on it than the HX20 has. 14MP would have been a perfect choice.

Presumably it will anyhow for sure have a better picture quality than any other compact cam. Maybe the G1X will be close or better but for this camera class performance is a big issue and there the RX100 is far ahead.

Nikon 1 sensor is made by Aptina, not sony.

On Pentax launches smc DA 50mm F1.8 for APS-C cameras news story (108 comments in total)
In reply to:

locke_fc: What I don't get is why all manufacturers insist on releasing 50mm lenses for APS-C bodies.
The 50mm has all reason to be for FF, as it approaches the normal angle of view. In APS-C though, it's pointless. The equivalent 75mm is neither here nor there: too short for portrait, too long for walk around and general purpose shooting.

So why this fixed mentality that APS-C needs a fast 50mm? I don't get it. Anyone looking for a portrait lens on cropped sensors would better served by a 60-70mm lens.

75mm is a nice focal for portrait.

In reply to:

waxwaine: Where are those people claiming for a old 50s digital SLR like OMD5? Saving for the US1400? Better get a K-30 + Q/ limiteds.

Of course, you have tested both cameras, and you know than OMD-5 is better.
There is no k-30 with definitive firmware available for the moment, but you know than the OMD will be better.
the power of auto-persuasion.

In reply to:

Couscousdelight: Why is that lens so big ?
Where is is gain in size offered by 4/3 format ?

what's the advantage to buy a 4/3 system if the lenses are the same size that APS-c or 35mm ?

Ok, my bad, it is smaller than a aps-c standard F2.8 zoom.

I take my time to check some full size images, and, sorry for Leica's adepts, but there is nothing worthy the price it cost.

Any modern 24x36 do the same.
