Great Bustard,

I hope you don't think I'm dissing your comments. Believe me, you know way more than I ever will about charts and graphs. I actually value the information to gave me here. I just...

...continued...

I hear all over social media from people who shoot Sony that run their mouths about how dSLR users are part of a dying breed and that Canon and Nikon had better get on board with...

Richard,

I do value test charts. Those are the types of scientific data that is important because we see the actual results in the flesh of what the lens is good at and what it isn't. That is why...

Great Bustard,

I guess I have to ask you this, since this will go on all night: What matters most to you - the image or the science behind the tools that make the image? Does lens equivalence...

Richard Butler,

You said "Wouldn't it be easier to "find the glass that works for you" if there was a common basis on which to compare?"

Why does there have to be a common basis to compare? If...

Great Bustard,

I appreciate what you are saying, but in the real world, when you're viewing the results, showing clients, displaying your images in a gallery or seeing your images printed in a...

Great Bustard,

"It may be "faster", but it neither has a more shallow DOF nor does it put more light on the sensor for a given scene and exposure time -- the only two reasons we care...

MILC man,

You said

"no, the Fuji lens is not "faster", that is wrong, because it's on a smaller sensor... you don't understand how cameras work."

I understand just fine how cameras work. I just...

1. The Fuji lens is a FUJI lens, not a third party. Third party lenses are generally cheaper to begin with.

2. The Sigma lens is older so naturally as lenses age they slowly depreciate,...

MILC Man,

It is about preference, as I said. The Fuji combo is $400 cheaper than the Sony combo, not vice versa. The reason the Fuji 8-16 is a little more is because of the f/2.8 vs. f/4. So, as a...

Great Bustard,

Yes, DP review is about gear. So when they present a "hands on" review or testing of a lens, for example, instead of people talking about who the lens is for, the benefits and...

A couple of points.

1. From the perspective of a Canadian buyer, which I am, the Sony A7III is $2599 and the 12-24 is $2299. That is a grand total of $4898 before taxes. The Fuji X-T3, by...

This is exciting. I had the first edition for my D750 and it was the best wide angle I ever had. The only reason I sold it was because of the fact that I had a bunch of 77mm filters for other wide...

This has probably been asked, but I don't have a lot of time to sift through the discussions, but will Nikon F mount lenses work on the Sony Alpha cameras (via an adapter)? If yes, what are the ...

How do you know Jared didn't discuss this with Arty beforehand? How do you know Arty didn't want his story shared with people? I'm grateful that Jared shared this. You have no proof that Jared...

Macro guy,

Exploit? How exactly? If I were dying of Cancer I would love to have someone like Jared do for me what he did for his neighbor. He wasn't exploiting him, and you're hugely ignorant if...

Jared Polin is successful. He is popular. He is a great photographer and he isn't a gear junkie or some stuck up ignoramus who thinks he's better than everyone. I've followed him on social media...
