Hi Gordon, Wow, that was very generous of you to share all of that...gratefully appreciated here! Being not too familiar with Canon's G-line I am curious about the Macro capabilities (or lack...

(Duplicate of my post over at the Sony Forum...) Seems like some other firms, Fujifilm and Terumo, are also weighing investment options with Olympus... Sony seeking stake in Olympus: report -...

Yep, clearly two (2) different cameras being shown here...first 3 images with the 200-400mm look to be a 1-series (large unibody, no top settings wheel), second 3 images with the 600mm are either a...

Hi Adrian, Back in the film days one could purchase a pocket point and shoot, rangefinder or compact camera that utilized 35mm film. Some of these cameras had optics that delivered great IQ. And...

Hi Folks, Looks like the discussion is going strong, thought we'd roll it over into round two... To recap: I was looking for some insight into whether the orbs (blown highlight artifacts) are...

Hi Timur, Well, you know what the room looks like...can you give us an idea as to which camera gave the most accurate tonal rendition? In particular, I'm curious about the window curtains...a...

Hi GaryJP, Are we sure it's fanboys having the posts deleted? Sounds more like an in-house practice to keep product truth from interfering in company profits. But then, I was born cynical. :)

Hi Mark, I'm thinking part of the problem in finding answers to this is terminology, methinks the correct technical term for this CMOS issue is not "blooming". However I have yet to stumble on...

Hi Mark H., As the OP of this discussion I began this topic with an interest in learning some of the actual technical issues and science behind this phenomenon. I was hoping that maybe someone...

Hi All, While researching this orb issue I stumbled on this page showing some rather extreme examples of what the problem is and how it's precipitated...looks like (as other posters have noted)...

Hi Paul, Well, therein lays some of my concerns...I've read a lot of banter over the years about preproduction copies and I have no idea what variations there are in those test models. Do the...

I've been shopping the Fuji X10 against the competition for a while now in my search for a quality range finder style P&S that will give me low-noise/high ISO (meaning, over ISO 400) images without...

Hi Tinu_ch, etal, I'm noticing the same thing with the G1X corners...phoo...they're not looking good in my book. My first reaction was that Canon either could have better matched a sensor to go...

Hi ci-lee, The ISO performance test really doesn't matter to me after looking at the corner sharpness differences between the two...yeah, I'll wait to see more tests, but my initial reaction is...

Hi jwilliams, I agree with you that Canon should consider an EVF with this series, with the caveat that it be high resolution with adjustable brightness and with zero time lag. And were they to...

Hi DS21, Take one picture at CES and get orbs...that was beautiful! Ha! Then show it to trade-show reps just to watch them go off-script...priceless! Double ha! And, then have them tell you that...

Hi aeneon, Bravo for starting this thread...reminds me of the furor over the black dot issue back when the Canon 5D Mark II came out. Lots of dissatisfied folks vs. a lot of Canon defenders and...

Hi Karl, It depends on a few things...if shooting video or being a bit more inobtrusive are important I'd suggest considering the G12. If being able to look through the lens to frame your image...
