I appreciate good compacts - I have an RX1, and I'd be willing to pay a premium were it fully waterproof. However, this one is more expensive and has nothing like the image quality of an RX1,...

And people have been using midi controllers for this for a long time... If an idea seems "obvious", you're probably not the first one to think of it.

@Photoroco, seriously, "less and less people"?
Please don't lecture others on language.

Midi2LR and a standard USB Midi Controller gives you 10 sliders and knobs for less than the cost of the minimum package.

Oh really? I hadn't noticed that :)

Seriously, I think it's a good analogy: analogue audio has plenty of downsides compared to digital audio, but at least it has a few unique features and a...

wlad: Well, this technology can also recreate high res pictures from low res pictures...

The only physically large cameras in the future will be film?

Silly.

That's like saying the only physical medium for audio will be vinyl.

What a farce. I don't know if it's a technical masterpiece, but a single 4MP image is far better than a huge 2300 MP collage that shows the crowd seemingly turning their back on the royal family...

Did the employees get a vote, and voted by majority to move from California to Utah? If not, "improving the living standards of employees" seems like a bogus justification.

To the contrary. Aside from the fact that Richard Butler is not a "NYC editor" (he lives in Seattle), I really enjoyed the variety of portraits in this article. Every compact camera can shoot good...

There is a difference between real "diving watches" and "water resistant wrist watches". If, say, a Suunto diving watch is rated for 200m, you can trust that it will work reliably at 200m, ie...

I concurr. Even for a product aimed at professionals where names should not matter much, the name "weapon" went too far.

It would be interesting to include a current waterproof phone into the comparison, e.g. the P20 pro or S9. Granted, they're not rugged and much more expensive, but it would be good to see how far a...

The Nikon is waterproof but not at all rugged (i.e. not "tough")

I don't get it. When the camera module is open for easy access, the camera or lenses can easily fall out, and crash inside the voluminous main pack. When it's closed, the camera and lenses are...

Of course, it should be 40%, not 60%, but the MSRP is pure fiction, and at the "discounted" proce of €1800, the lens is still overpriced.

@kiwisnap, or perhaps if you *were* a real video shooter, you would. No offense, but that sounds a bit like "If I knew more about the subject, I would disagree" - how can you possibly know that?

You are in luck, Fujifilm makes just that kind of lens already: 14.5-45mm, T2.0.

And it might cost you less than $1000.

For a week's rental.

Of course, that's a cine lens, and Fujifilm could...

CPUs aren't getting significantly faster anymore at executing single-threaded applications. You can now get a 16 thread CPU for the price of a dual thread CPU a few years ago, but unless an...

I think they're clear: whereas previously, Lightroom didn't parallelise efficiently and hence could not typically makes use of much RAM, the improvement to parallelisation means that it now...
