Class A

Great release by Ricoh. Not the same old, same old you see from everyone else.

No mentioning of the CRI?

I guess they are not too proud of the middle of the road performance.

The only logical conclusion to the premise that the "OVF Simulation" matters is that OVFs are still the best choice for many photographers.

If "To put it simply, OVF Simulation Mode on the R3...

Using one's thumb to move the AF focus around with a joystick can become just as subconscious.

I'm very sceptical that employing the photographers' eye to guide the AF focus is a good idea....

@Andyyy
That's not what they said.

Not to mention the whole "mirrorless gives you lighter systems" stick.

FWIW, I don't mind a well-built and hefty camera. A camera that handles well needs to...

"Surprised 'how light it is'": The Pentax K-1 II is 5g lighter (including battery) but was described with the words "Built like a tank - and as heavy" and "Camera is quite heavy", which sounds...

The September 2021 14.4 version will bring back the old exporter, including the old (better) functionality.

You don't have to pay for C1 *updates* (for a year) which sometimes come with considerable feature additions. Sadly, these updates do not always only bring improvements, such as bug...

Between the Sony and the Nikon, prioritising viewfinder resolution, battery life, weather-sealing, astrophotography, and price, I'd choose the Pentax K-1.

It is awesome that some long-requested features have finally been realised. Being able to overwrite during exporting, synchronising contents of new subfolders, and viewing images in subfolders are...

@DPReview You can redo your studio scene shots at lower shutter speeds now as an electronic shutter option has been added as part of the latest firmware upgrade (version 1.10).

Always a treat to read something written by Roger Cicala.

When you pay a considerable sum of money to end up with slower (equivalent) lenses.

Not clear to me either whether an improvement has been achieved in terms of dynamic range.

This system change...

1. It is not "unfair" to reduce a 60MP image to a 12MP image.

Say you want to deliver a 12MP image to a client. Would you rather use a 60MP (smaller pixels) camera or a 12MP camera...

@MyDog Is Incharge
These are f/11 lenses. Granted, they have their uses but I don't think this is what users had in mind when dreaming about what wonders wider mounts and shorter flange distances...

@pwilly
DPReview and I are not talking about noise reduction that occurs inside the sensor (and is entirely fine and always welcome).

We are talking about a "post capture" denoising that is...

Try to get an older camera with a CCD sensor. These had global shutters. :)

@3V AudioVideo
I agree that the question about RAW NR was entirely dodged.

I wish Canon, Panasonic, and Pentax gave users the option to disable the RAW NR. Giving users the choice should be a...

@3V AudioVideo
Note that marc petzold's reference to higher pixel pitch is irrelevant when it comes to noise.

Per-pixel noise increases but overall image noise does not increase when the pixel...
