I was sort of almost convinced to buy it.

DSLR and mirrorless cameras just became obsolete. Your phone is your next camera body. Sell your gear now before the general public finds out about this.

I purchased an X100F last year and was pleased to find that Fuji has stopped releasing cameras with BETA firmware. I'd have to say that my experience with this camera has been pleasant and very...

"You seem to believe that an unarmed civilian is no threat. "

I did not say that. I implied that the cameraman was no threat.

And that means this person doesn't deserve financial compensation for being mistaken for a gunman and shot?

@ SantaFeBill

I agree with your disdain for the outcome. But the cop thought the tripod itself was a gun, not that it was a tripod for a gun.

@jbw28

So if I join my local police force they'll teach me that unarmed civilians, who've committed no crime and have been shot by police, should receive no financial compensation?

It hasn't been meaningless since the advent of the EVF since the first EVFs were utterly horrible.

Whether it was criminal or not is not the issue. This was a civil suit for damages. The issue the court was deciding is whether the police force is at fault for the incurred damages. ie. The...

Canon is developing ultra low light sensors as propaganda... ? That sounds like very expensive and time consuming propaganda.

It may seem like hindsight to the dreamers who thought Lytro was the next camera revolution. But it's not hindsight to the people who looked at the specs and pointed out the obvious and...

With Lytro, you sacrifice resolution to create a series of stacked images that that allow you to "isolate" subjects with heavily blurred foreground/background. That may have limited artistic...

You've passed the secret test. You're hired!

Even if I'm not a professional photographer, it's always interesting to see the job requirements for a high profile position like this.

Where's the option to click "I had it"?

Because "zoom" is shorter than "2 separate lenses with different focal lengths".

The iFixit rating seems primarily based on the ability to open the phone and replace the battery. The G5's battery is user replaceable so it gets a high rating. The S9 gets a low rating because...

"everything you need is displayed on the screen as you take your shot."

Everything I need is displayed on my OVF when I take my shot (it's called an overlay). But that's not what a top LCD panel...

This debate on whether to bring up Betamax vs VHS reminds me of the Betamax vs VHS debate. The people saying no are like Betamax and the people who do are like VHS...
