I would imagine that the same incongruity probably existed during the creation of photos during the Dust Bowl and Great Depression. That doesn't affect my reaction to the contents. What I felt was ...

Sort of. Resample the D810 images down to 12MP. The "sort of" comes into play when you realize that there are different resampling algorithms available. At the very least you should include ...

Maybe this was going on: Carry a camera under your coat (to avoid the temperature limit issue) while being active in those ambient conditions, and the non-condensation advisory is at risk of being ...

... I haven't decided yet. Maybe the next one would end up being a Z8; that's how long the decision might take. For my use model and requirements, right now a new & great lens could make a far, FAR ...

Here's an approach. With a monochromatic light source: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/58088963 And now with white light: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/59182596

Now imagine what the upcoming f/0.95 lens may be like. "Bring it on."

I can't speak for that particular crowd but portrait shooters are on record saying that they like eyes to be in focus.

Speaking as a test engineer, i strongly agree that the proof of the pudding is in the eating (the proper form of the proverb, not the common and mangled one). There are a great many fast lenses ...

I believe that I know what you mean from my experience with the Milvus 85. It's somewhat independent of scale. The detail and tone are simply true to the subject no matter how I use the images. ...

With the Milvus 25mm I rented and just sent back this morning, that is a recipe for horrific images. There was nothing but mush at the physical stop. I also can't blindly trust the physical stops ...

Adding some of my impressions to your clear insights: I own this lens and have been delighted with the results in panoramic stitching. I felt like i could walk right into the scene. I'm going to ...

I found this image on the description of a product that also has the identical image you posted, so it's more clear now what form factor you would be working with: Do you remember ViewMaster 3D ...

I can't tell which of these two options you might be describing, or if you are doing something else entirely: (1) Are you starting from some already printed image that happens to be 3/16", from which ...

I didn't bother to look up how to do that. But thanks, I copied your text, and have it now. Just in case.    :-) [say no more] My commentary was as cynical as you might have imagined it to be... in ...

The only time you would tend to expect a test report to include lens performance results at the minimum focusing distance will be for macro lenses. And by that I mean specialized lenses for macro ...

According to what source of information? I think that at least one important variable has not been described. LR just now showed me pixel dimensions for recently captured D810 images were 7360x4912 ...

Refer to the process as "Giclee" and get ready for the interior designers to beat a path to the door.

In a perfect world you would definitely expect any warranty terms to be clearly stated in the document that shows the repair estimate. In a slightly less perfect world but a still pretty good one, ...

Are there any lingering color biases set in the picture controls? Do the full reset to defaults, set the color balance to daylight and the picture control to standard, and shoot a picture of a gray ...
