  • DxO Film Pack is an awesome product. As with any program, the more you work with it and master it, the better the results. I no longer miss the Pentax K1000 film camera I used for over a decade. ...

  • Some additional options:

    FREE:

    Faststone Image Viewer -- its versatile interface makes using it a pleasure -- great features and fairly powerful -- it's the program that made me not buy Lightroom...

  • Thanks DPReview:

    Some suggestions:

    Faststone Image Viewer--awesome interface for viewing and editing images that don't need extensive editing. Surprisingly powerful when you actually explore...

  • Commented on Just posted: Sony Alpha NEX-6 Review news story

    Thanks for another great review. I don't mind waiting for the reviews from this site -- it's worth the wait, as very few sites do it better. I learn more about a camera from the reviews here than...

  • Commented on Just posted: Fujifilm X-E1 Review news story

    We often have a zero-sum mentality when it comes to cameras -- in other words, for my camera to be superior, every other camera must be inferior. These days, technology has come so far that...

  • Great images from a master photographer. McCurry is clearly one of the great portraitists of our time. I learn something every time I see his work.

  • Definitely -- The S5, S3, and S2, even years later, were ahead of their time. The best out of camera JPEGS of any DSLR, past or present (along with a killer black and white mode), you could tell...

  • The Fujifilm hands down -- my Nikons are faster, but if the main criteria is absolute image quality (especially for portraits), nothing on this list even comes close. I've been painting portraits...

  • I'm always amazed at how territorial we can be when a new camera might possibly be superior to the one we own (I've been guilty of this myself). But I have to be honest -- as a very content Nikon...

  • Excellent review for an excellent camera -- and stunning gallery images. I admit, as a Nikon shooter, I used to not take the Sony cameras seriously -- until I actually used one. For example, the...

  • Seeing McCurry's work over the years is like being alive when Rembrandt was painting. His color photography is every bit as phenomenal as the most iconic black and white images. Thanks DPReview...

  • My ideal camera would have to have the following James Bond-like features:

    -Laser Hologram Autofocus to allow precise focusing even in complete darkness

    -A Zeiss lens with a brightness of 2.0 at...

  • Boy, we can be a pretty judgmental bunch here at DPReview (I'm as guilty as anyone, I suppose). We condemn cameras we don't like, condemn the companies that make them, and condemn those who would...

  • I see this as a smart move for all involved and a natural progression from Sony's relationship with Zeiss. Many potential Medium Format users are migrating to high end DSLRs (i.e. Nikon's D800)...

  • DPReview, thank you for another fascinating article. Unfortunately, there will always be those who reject anything inconsistent with their view of what photography should be. As much as I like...
