On Olympus to axe V-series point-and-shoot cameras news story (115 comments in total)

When the quality is not better than a current smartphone. Why would you buy a compact. Just leave it for one or two players to slug it out in this area.

Why doesn't any of these big players compete in the go pro market?

That's a growing sector and they have the manufacturing processes to make it.

Make a tiny lightweight wireless weatherproof camera module that can be controlled by a smartphone.

On Magic Lantern enables Canon 5D Mark III Raw video output news story (131 comments in total)

If Canon really wanted to stop Magic Lantern, they could. But in their interest they don't as it creates another market of users.

Take Apple Iphone. If Jailbreak never existed for it, I don't think it would of taken market share as it did.

Playstation 1. It didn't really take off until it was hacked.

I think this is a good move from Adobe.

The gaming industry has shown this model does work. This will stop piracy in its tracks and weed out the pros from the amateurs.

If you don't like it there is always open source and other alternatives so quit complaining.

I guess this camera is not going to get a Gold Award.

Hopefully more people buy the d600 so Canon can start being more competitive with its pricing.

scrup: Put a big sensor on it. If they want this to last.

I guess the target market is for old folks who care about how the camera looks and not the images it produces.

On Just Posted: Hands-on Canon EOS 6D preview news story (590 comments in total)

Is this the only current SLR to have one cross type AF point?

Hopefully the lack of AF info is to help 5d sales along and then when it is released there are at least more than one cross type sensors. If the T4 has it, i don't see why the 6D shouldn't.
