    I have to say I really love how the increased resolution, color sensitivity, sharpness and tone on the Q7 work together to give that extra omph. The Q can do a lot, the Q7 just takes it a little...
  • Yes, I know her a bit, and I talk to her. Imagine that :-)

    To whoever is reading this and is curious about the Q7- don't go by the mindless fauxtographers that are reading paper specs and have not even tried the camera. The Q7 gives you DSLR class alike...

  • yes, I do think you can use noise for effect. But like everything, it has to be used well and judiciously, or the snap won't transcend what you can do in Photoshop "Add noise wizerd" in under 10...
  • Thanks for the look :-)
  • Well, lol. The Q can do a lot.  I think the Q7 does have more DR, but also the color sensitivity/extra sharpness. Thanks for the look. :-)

    What you just said proves the point I said: no, they don't cancel each other out. The point is the EP5 is a higher class of camera in which it competes it *and* a high price - so the issue that...

    Actually they do beat Canon at high ISO. A K-5 easily beats the Canon at high ISO, and so did the D7000 (same K-5 sensor).

    It's not relevant because saying "we finally match current worst APS-C"...

    Semantics aside, I am talking about what dpreview was referring to.

    @Mirrorles - you are forgetting two things: price and class of camera.

    I have to say if holding the camera affects IBIS so much, that still reads to me like a problem, don't you think?

    Funny thing: dpreview USED to have bronze awards :-)

    Funny thing: dpreview USED to have bronze awards :-) So they decided to remove them.

    @White - the issue is not that he can or can't have a preference. The issue is that if someone favors a brand heavily, you have to put a different weight to some of the things said. That's...
