So many comments on something so simple.

Neither APS-C nor "Full Frame" was designed to be optimal for digital photography. We have them because they were pre-existing film formats, so...

It might indeed mean that my needs are modest, but that is not (by any means) "All it means' The 1D ii N might be poor at high-ISO and have a modest number of Mp by today's standards but it does ...

I had never given the 6D much attention until a friend lent me one when my 1Ds mark ii failed. The low weight was very welcome, as was the ability to get usable images at ISO 12800. Only the lack...

Only in the comment sections of Internet blogs and review sites, and on those sites that deliberately promote dissatisfaction so as to profit from affiliate links. When my more-than-10-years-old ...

I was checking out the performance of Canon's 35mm f/1.4 mark ii on various bodies to see what is a worthwhile replacement for my failed 1Ds ii and its backup which is temporarily its stand-in, a ...

It really did not need so much argument.  Here is all I need to know: 300  ppi = very good for almost everything 600 ppi = sometimes even better (especially for the lucky few with > 20/20 vision) 2 ...

This is the one and only piece of equipment that has tempted me to switch from Canon to Nikon since I stopped using film and went completely digital about ten years ago. I think Nikon decided to ...

Sorry.  I replied to the thread when I should have replied to particular comments.  I was not criticising you or your  points.  Yes a 4k monitor is a nice tool to have and displays still ...

We don't disagree. A swivelling screen is very useful.  But it is still a point of weakness that makes a camera more likely to be damaged, as is a pop-up flash.  There are also more moving parts ...

=> The Aussie Viking My point was that some of us are interested only in still images. We choose our equipment to shoot stills and don't care whether a camera can shoot video or not. If it does it ...

Why are camera reviewers so bothered about 4k video? A question I have often asked myself. I think camera reviewers are  generally looking for something to criticise in perfectly good cameras, so ...

It is over a year since the previous contribution to this thread, but my experience might be useful to anyone that comes to it via a search engine. I had Canon's 16-35, 24-70 and 70-200 zooms, all ...

I quote from the article itself:

'There's a lot of other features that separate the G1 X III and G7 X II, including that the former offers better dynamic range, weather sealing, an electronic...

<snip> What is " too heavy for walking around doing run &gun" and what is not is a matter of opinion. It depends on all kinds of things,including the conditions you shoot under, as well as how fit ...

It is not about specification lists. They don't tell the full story.  It is about how well a camera, and the system of which it is a part, meet the needs of the individual photographer.  Why do so ...

I think you underestimate Canon's superiority in some areas, their ability to catch up in others, and their marketing expertise. I expect Canon to remain the market leader, Nikon to remain in ...

I made what I thought was a list of the advantages of a mirrorless camera over a DSLR, and vice versa. Someone said it was mostly rubbish, as A DSLR with mirror locked up has the same capabilities. ...

Mirrorless advantages: (1) Fewer moving parts ... more reliable (and, most likely, cheaper to make) (2) With no mirror in the way ...

There is no need to be so rude, as you are being here, and as you were in several earlier posts.  These matters can be discussed without calling people that have a different point of view to yours ...

Canon has over half of the camera/lens business, so they must be doing something right, even if they can't please the contributors to these forums. [Nikon has the next largest share.  The others: ...
