How big of the check have Canon sent to DxO for this article?
I don't know if you guys are all aware. Lao is just a new China province like Tibet.
From lenstip.com
Pros:
solid casing,
excellent image quality in the frame centre,
very good image quality on the edge of the APS-C sensor,
negligent longitudinal chromatic aberration,
great coma correction,
slight astigmatism,
low vignetting on APS-C,
silent, quick and accurate autofocus.
Cons:
lateral chromatic aberration corrected in a worse way than that of the rivals,
huge vignetting on full frame,
weak performance against bright light,
exorbitant price
Right on the head of the nail about APSC owners who wanted to upgraded to FF.
No rush. I think I am going wait for the next APSC sensor.
I though ARM is more power efficient, and x86 has zero chance to get into a phone. Well, it is almost a reversal.
Must be one of those units made right after the big flood in Thailand.
Are they called breaking-in dust ?
is a Rebel body lighter and cheaper than this contraption?
Garbage. Nokia smartphone camera is more deserved than this Sony for sure.
nofumble: I bough an iPad3 for my wife, and bought an iPad2 for my mom. The iPad 2 is $399.
The iPad mini is a reduced screen-size iPad2. Why is it priced at $329?
It does not have GPS. Is there any reason I would carry with me when I am going out?
As far as viewing photo-image using iPad3 - not worth it. It is too slow to load for my patience. Pictures taken from my DSLR are too big. The iPad3 don't handle it too well.
That maybe Apple's logic but today is different. They should priced to compete with the Nexus 7 16G which is only $249.

shayzu: If you are not a 100% professional photographer, you can have much cheaper alternatives:
1. Transfer of photos from the camera - using "iPad Connection Kit", which provides a USB connection between the camera and the iPad, or a card reader of SD sized cards.
2. Editing - using "Adobe Photoshop Touch" or Apple's iPhoto for iOS.
Can you save your works back to the card to free up the storage in the iPad? Mine does not allow. 16G storage in my iPad3 is just too tiny, and I do not want to pay a lot more money for an iPad with bigger storage. I hate Apple. Time for something else.
Transfering video file into an iPad is a PITA. More trouble than what it is worth.
My wife take movie using her own iPad3. They clogged up the iPad internal storage quickly. She download the movie files, but have a hard time to put it back so the iMovie can accept and edit. iOS6 made it worse. I hate the close Apple garden ecology.
Next tablet - Android or Window, much more open.
Thank you Nikon for making a loud wake-up call for Canon.
Sony demise is near as they keep coming to market with these kind of products.
How many people can afford a $2800 fixed focal length camera?
What is the M34 prof ??? One that has OVF ?
I use OVF 95% of time, maybe more.
The only times I need focus in Live view are 1. Movie, 2. use a manual lens.
For movie, slow focus is actually a good thing.
For manual lens ... needless to say. Beside Sony NEX, all camera sucks. Canon is less suck because I can have Magic Lantern option.
So fast focus in Live view with the T4i is really a non-issue.
While smartphones can send pictures via NFC, Canon still embrace this kind of printer.
Document from Sony described the technology below.

IQ of Smartphone camera will continue to improve. They will be fast, nice IQ, and fun to use.
No chance this will go into a FF though. Insanely expensive to stack two large dies. And it is not needed though. They can use micro lenses.
Intel suggests that you buy an Orange phone and shoot 15 fps.
