  • While Apple product lovers just care about how well their gadgets works, android lovers are all about comparing to Apple products and criticizing them.
    Is this an inferiority complex?

  • I agree.
    m4/3 are a compromise for portability, and as such the price should reflect that.

  • I would buy tomorrow of 1/2 of the price. Never for this price. A FIAT 500 with leather interiors and a turbo is still a 500...

  • I have mixed felling about this. Everyone wants more DR because it is more forgiving. There are situations where it is actually useful, however I find it can easily lead to HDR effect all the time,...

  • these results are interesting and useful, but they can also be deceiving, especially the combined mark which is a mere sum of the contributions of the characteristics of the sensor. For instance it...

  • I always hear about how bad Canon sensors are in shadow recovery when compared to the competition, which is quite true. However I have not seen reliable comparisons in the highlight recovery. My...

  • can you reference your statement? I am not so convinced with the 85 and 50 mm 1.2 lenses. To me optical and construction quality by Canon is superior

  • how many with negative comments here have actually tried the camera? At this level spec sheet is far less relevant than other aspects such as compactness, weight, friendliness, without penalizing...
