And the point? You want Panasonic to abandon MFT? You'd prefer Sony to make the camera of your dreams?

Alternate hypothesis: Body is larger because market research shows that larger camera bodies...

I'm fairly certain that amateur athletes (and most, if not all, pros) sign a blanket model release as part of their agreement to participate/entry form. The sports organizations normally hold all...

Do artists have a greater appreciation of their tools' aesthetic qualities than "non-artists" have for their tools? I assure you, auto mechanics debate the relative beauty of various makes of...

Wow, he's rediscovered the totemic value of tools!

No sooner did our ancestors start making tools than they started building better versions.

"Why me want your spear? Mine just as sharp!"...

Not quite correct. You can certainly place restrictions on the use of those photos by others. You'll just pay more for, "You can't sell them to anyone else, for any purpose, forever," than you will...

Boris, you'll find that a photographer will charge very different rates for a family portrait sitting vs. an advertising/catalog shoot.

No matter who you hire, for what purpose, the nature of the...

A fair portion of the 19th, and all of the 20th centuries occurred under protection of patent and copyright law. What unimaginable advances, what works of artistic genius, might have been...

I get it - with no test results in hand, no sample shots, what can we debate other than appearance? But "ugly" vs."beautiful," "chunky" vs. "sleek?" Taste and style are manufactured, they're not...

Is the practical relevance limited? If the only issue was the cost of sheet film vs. memory cards, yes. Economic necessity may have helped drive the development of the Zone System, but its goal...

Zone System is an incredible tool for fitting creative expression to the limitations of the physical medium. Whether we're talking about photo-chemical film emulsions, digital sensors, analog audio...

Anyone remember the Y2K Bug? Data storage costs were so high in the day that they dropped two digits off dates (12/31/1972 vs. 12/31/72). The cost of storage continues to drop dramatically. So, if...

Wow! A product so special that folks forgot to say bad things about the iPhone.

Is a smart phone unsuitable for posting small product images on eBay? They have more than enough resolution for a...

Higher resolution, multiple manufacturers and technologies... All good things. The future of EVF is looking better all the time.

Lag? That is mostly a microprocessor issue, and those, too are...

If it's a buy-out, what about the other 88.54% of the voting shareholders? What about the votes of the other members of the board of directors?

We can each read the tea leaves our own way. We...

Exactly. Not to worry! If Sony kills Oly m43, they can't be sure the Oly customers will switch to Sony. Chances are, they'd get less than 20% of Oly's existing customers. Plus, killing an...

I doubt you can blame smart phone coverage for the lack of in-depth lens tests. a handful of intensive lens tests would occupy more staff time than the past year's smart phone coverage. Perhaps you...

Greater dynamic range than today? Wonderful. Sensors smart enough to avoid clipping on a pixel-by-pixel basis? Wonderful. But dynamic range is a problem that extends beyond recording/measurement -...

Because it's not a (business) mistake to get folks to buy a new system that requires all-new equipment? Folks with a bag full of legacy lenses may be waiting for them to see the "error of their...
