Tilted Plane

Always interesting to hear other people's experiences, so I'll add my humble note. I had the 135 Canon f/1.2 for some time and found it painful and intolerable for landscape work. The lack of ...

I think anyone reviewing this or the Tamron 15-30mm is almost required to do a comparable review/test of the Nikon. It's the reference.

All cool beans stuff..., sure. But Tamron already has the 15-30mm f/2.8 which I once owned and thought was sweet but not quite as "right" as the Nikon, which I had for years until last month....

I know dpreview isn't a "news" site, but I would still hope something of this importance would try to show balance. We only get one side of this story--compelling, of course, from one perspective...

All the comments so far are right--but no one is asking why dpreview thinks this is a valid kind of opinion piece. The camera, and it's method of funding, needs a few inches of type somewhere, but...

Good to read. Thanks.

But gotta add--I've been teaching Photo I for years, and $200 is a huge difference for a freshman on a budget. A deal-breaker for most of them.

I'm sure others have already...

Not so...they vary, and the Nolan IMAX films have had the more square format. If you see them in their film versions in the theater. The digital versions are already cropped down, even in an IMAX...

I've seen Nolan IMAX films in a theater in the past (non-digital, the real thing in the New York area) and there is NO question that it is astonishing for its detail, and for its visual effect. To...

Great, clear, opinionated but well reasoned and backed up. I'm sure everyone has their own opinions, but these are sharply defined starting points. Super helpful and a model of a good commentary...

But the gearing possibilities, and the consistency of focus travel and size from lens to lens, seems like small potatoes compared to the huge price increase. I also wonder like KerryBE...what...

Does copper mean brass?

I'm a film era guy, and it seems that "sharpness" beyond the pixel count (or film sharpness) is always an issue of the lens and its focus, along with any interfering layers you might add like an...

You might need to check your text below the studio scene shots because it still talks about the A9 softness...

Totally fun and fun to think about, and offering lots of points to cheerfully debate. (24mm equiv. is better, of course.)

Well done. And my 16mm Sony is rather good, even in the corners, and it's...
