Well, the banding is more obvious in these samples. Frankly, the uniformity of the problem makes me think that it is an artefact of the RAW conversion process, and/or jpeg output settings you...

I thought my laptop monitor was reasonably good so it must be my eyes, but frankly I don't seen the banding in the posted photos. One can certainly see light falloff on the wall from the table...

The more I look at the GXR, the more I like it. Sometimes it takes people a while to realize that the established way of doing things isn't necessarily the best way - interchangeable lenses vs an...

Why don't these camera makers simply provide a tapped cable hole on the shutter button any more - at least as good, if not better, than an electronic cable release in most circumstances. An example...

I think it is probably wise to check them out in store if you can. Having said that, I live in a fairly remote part of Canada and have little opportunity to try something before buying. Instead, I...

HowaboutRAW:

Frankly, I don’t care about the NEX7. My comment was about the potential commercial success of the Fuji.

While there seems little doubt that the X-Pro 1 is capable of producing...

Good lenses, reasonably priced. The body is another matter. I think Fuji made a strategic error here. As the genesis of a new system, the X-Pro 1 is relying on hype, looks, and Press to carry the...

While some may prefer a smaller or a larger camera, size is only one variable in the search for good ergonomics. I have no doubt that a camera can be made quite small, or even quite large and still...

The X-Pro 1 is very close to what I've been waiting for; a digital camera that produces clean almost analogue looking images. It dispenses with the one thing that has always bothered me about...

@marike6. I've looked at the full size jpegs and am not seeing this. There is no doubt that the images have a different feel (the Fuji looks much more film-like to me while the Olympus offers a...

My son purchased the Sony NEX-5 about a year ago. Despite taking good care of it, the contacts inside the battery compartment are showing signs of corrosion and the non-glare coating on the LCD has...

I am not a pro, but I always shoot RAW and process with ACDSee Pro. As good as the out-of-camera jpegs from my E-30 are, the results I get through ACDSee Pro are always better. It doesn't take long...

Looks like an amazing piece of kit, but there are two reasons I won't own one. First off, I'd have to re-mortgage the house to afford it. Second, they are far too big.

Actually, that last point...

The last thing I'd like to add is that ACDSee Pro offers an excellent database facility for cataloguing classifying and ultimately finding your images. I haven't had time to ascertain whether DxO...

I would love to say that everything was great with DxO, because I am quite pleased with much of the output and would love to own a "one stop shop" for my editing needs. Unfortunately, compared to...

I downloaded DxO yesterday and ran a whole pile of RAW photos through it today, while watching tutorials and trying to get a sense of how it works. So far, I feel rather mixed about it.

As a long...

I just downloaded and compared a variety of photos taken by the X-Pro 1 and the OM-D E-M5. While this is purely my opinion, images from the X-Pro 1 seemed far superior. I am anxious to see what...

I've never been a fan of image stabilization but that probably reflects the sort of photography I do which realy doesn't require it. While Olympus's new stabilization technology looks quite...
