I am struggling with the concept of mobile photography. I'd love to embrace its immediacy and intimacy, but I can't get around its technical limitations. Blowing up a phone shot to anything larger...

I'm a realist. While I agree that a fine picture can be taken with any tool, the end result still doesn't lie. Imagine Da Vinci doing the Mona Lisa with a 2B pencil on a 3" x 3" piece of paper....

I'm sorry, but at the end of the day, it's about how serious you want your pictures to be. If your priority is your honeymoon, leave the DSLR at home. If you want good pictures, no way any...

It will look cool to walk around with, that's for sure. But there is no way in hell or anywhere in heaven to justify its cost. A collector's item at best. Right there along with my M9 (any buyers?).

@schorscho, I own an M9 and must say that the price is really hard to justify at times. You will agree that the C/P is nowhere close to a Canon/Nikon body. It's a wonderful piece to own, but it...

I own an M (non movie version, of course). I have to say that although the shooting experience is top-notch, I occasionally find myself trying to justify the cost of it versus my Canon. Sure my...

I think he opened himself to this criticism by accepting this job, wouldn't you agree? I wouldn't go into a huge event like this without full confidence in my gear and then hoping people would get...

Yeah, improving... with the games already done with the prime events. The men's 100M, the swimming events... Not sure what other signature events are left for him to redeem the G5.

By bringing in nationality into your argument, you lost all steam.

Meaningless accusations aside, you challenged the WHINERS to post their best sports shots as a way to validate their own...

Each day I check the Lumix Olympics site, waiting to be wowed. So far it's been hugely disappointing. The pictures look overly noise-reduced. As others have said, what a great way to kill the...

@audijam - I'm not saying it's a bad book, nor do I worship him as you imply. I'm just saying it's not like the first two books. And no, sorry, you're not going to be like him or beat him. So you...

At the same time, despite the perfect lighting, the pros still prefer the 1DX's and D4's. I agree that the average user couldn't take anything great even with great equipment, but that does not...

Did anyone notice that just about all of Dean's pictures were taken at 8mm? Does that show a lack of confidence in the zooms?

Thus far I've not been made a believer of the G5. The shots were not...

This book actually has tons of those recipes you mentioned. Not saying this is a bad book, but it's definitely not a sequel to the others.

I have this book, and I think you'll be disappointed. It IS a field manual, sprinkled with occasional stories in between. Much, much more technical than his other two books, which I also have. Just...
