Probably hard for him to understand that that is why P&S cameras sell about 5,000 times as many as DSLRs. My wife wouldn't have a DSLR, but she likes her little Canon A460, and is smart enough to not make idiotic comparisons.
The guy has one post where he writes that megapixels don't matter.
How's it hangin'?
Of course I agree. For deep DOF pics in good light at 768x539 I don't think there's much of a difference at all. And, let's be honest, that's pretty much the type of pics lots of people take.
Yes, my Mazda Miata is a lot better than a Porshe Boxster. Besides routine maintenance, the Miata only had one mechanical problem in eight years, and a mom & pop auto repair place fixed it for less than $200.
To justify carrying around a bulky DSLR with a bulky long zoom that's never been taken off.. ever.
But it does know the difference between a plastic lens and good quality glass.
No I don't. The second photo to me looks more natural. The first looks too red and blotchy.
Just to point out we are debating this: article:
The problem probably is going to be finding a lens that fits both a 20 buck camera and a 5K camera.
Really different. I spent some time yesterday afternoon finishing up photography for a magazine article: I used a Pentax K10D with a Sigma 10-20mm zoom for most of the shots. With that lens and that camera, I got the full width, plus some of the doors, of a 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner dashboard, shooting from the rear seat (two door hardtop) between the seats (lens just poking over the seat backs in the center), lipping the edge of the front seat and down to the floor, with the top showing most of the sun visors. When a P&S will do that, I'll be interested.
No problem, most S/H Nikon AI lenses will fit an old $20 Nikkormat and a new F6 (or D3 for that matter)
