there are physical reasons why small format can't compete with medium format. Once they both have high quality glass, MF just gives better images. The same physical limits operate in proportion to...

I'd like to see a 4x5 digital. Wilth a bellows or telescoping lens so that when not in use it folds up into a small case. Even the folded light path idea of the old Polaroid cameras would be...

What I'd like to see is a 4"x5" sensor with about 50 MP. With a folding bellows lens it wouldn't be much bigger than a thick paperback book. The IQ would put DSLRs back in the toy camera corner...

I'd like to see this come from the other end. When I travel I want my Canon 5D2 with me to take amazing pictures, but I hate having to lug a laptop and 2 or three external drives for backup. My...

I've read hundreds of these comments and this is the best one. It really has brought us all together. Amazing.

If this is what 'blad thinks is the best way to stay in business... It would have been more honourable to pay off their staff and close the doors.

'blad's doing a mirrorless! Yay, a MF camera that's inconspicuous, light and affordable with great optics. Oh wait, no... It's a tiny sensor in a huge showy heavy package that takes very...

Shooting Canon in liveview has the same effect.

Increments, you compared the price of the Samyang 14mm with the Canon zoom. Why not compare apples with apples and compare it to the Canon 14mm prime? With a list price of 2809.99 pounds. It...

I've got a Samyang 24mm 1.4. The focus seemed a little overdamped at first but now is perfect. It never moves by itself, but can be adjusted with one finger. Lovely feel, huge focus ring. The...

This is great. The HDR knockers seem to forget that the alternative is lighting to fill the shadows while keeping the highlights. That's the "traditional" method that they seem to love. Go watch...

My Kodachrome is gone too. I have 3 rolls shot but not developed and now it's too late.

Funny, I feel about grad filters the way most people seem to feel about HDR. I instantly think "Urrrgh Yuck, Lazy photographer, horrible photo, unrealistic image". I've *never* seen a grad filter...

My experience with the compact camera owners is that they take maybe 100 shots a year at best. There's a reason why they had rolls of film in 24... Because they'd expire in the camera if they...

no they've thought of it alright. Google "Light Field" and see how much work is being done on it. (it's not "my" idea). It just seems much more relevant to "photography" than this idea does.

If instead of putting it all through one lens you had a flat board coated with lenses in an array you would have a much higher resolving power. If you had a board about the size of an iPad then...

I've been suggesting something like this for a while, but without the central lens. If you had something like an iPad but with the whole back coated with close spaced cameras. You could fit about...
