  • Commented on Canon EOS-1D X overview article

    Medium format is not a good answer to wanting more megapixels (MP). It requires much higher f/stop, and therefore, light, to get the same depth of field, making it inappropriate for many uses....

  • Commented on Canon EOS-1D X overview article

    I like having extra MP for the cropping options and quality of large prints. This camera is the right one for its target market. Hopefully the 5D3 will have 26 to 32 MP and great image quality, at...

    Another vote for the 5D Mark II. No sensor dust issue (haven't heard of that one), and the image quality is outstanding.

  • Commented on Canon EOS-1D X overview article

    There's a good reason for APS sensors. They provide benefits in exchange for specific tradeoffs, and obviously, many people like that value proposition. To each his/her own.

    The larger sensor cameras, frankly, are exposing the limitations of all lenses, and this is true for all manufacturers. If you play with the microadjustments for lenses, and do it consistently, in...

  • Commented on Preview: Canon PowerShot G1X large sensor zoom compact news story

    I prefer cameras without GPS. I don't want the cost, size, weight or battery drain, and only the latter is selectable of the four detriments if I like the camera otherwise. I know where I shoot my...

    Print size comes down to pixel count, quality of color (luminance noise, amount of noise reduction needed, and color authenticity) in those pixels, and lens clarity. You can easily compare the...

    The pop-up flash vs non-moving flash was required in order for the lens to not block the flash's light when the lens is at wide angle.

    I'd vote for this zoom every time over a faster prime, because it's of greater benefit to me, but everyone's mileage will vary.

  • Commented on Preview: Canon PowerShot G1X large sensor zoom compact news story

    The pop-up flash is necessary to avoid having the flash blocked by the lens at wide angle.

  • Commented on preview

    It arises from the history of how sensor size was expressed, and it persists because the marketing departments of the manufacturers can mislead consumers into thinking actual sensor sizes are...

  • Commented on Preview: Canon PowerShot G1X large sensor zoom compact news story

    To all those wishing Canon had supplied more, I'm impressed with what Canon has done. Having a large sensor in a small, powerful package is right up my alley. Sure, 24mm would have been great, f/2,...

    I'm glad Canon didn't include GPS. It adds cost, size, battery drain and weight, with no benefit to me. Furthermore, it rarely works well inside. Thank you, Canon, for NOT adding GPS!!
