For all the "pros" for whom shallow DOF is everything Fuji will only be interesting once it beats FF in that regard. So something like a 135 f1.4 to beat lenses like a 105/1.4 on FF. Having the...

No, I meant that the TL2 was announced a while ago (as a successor to the TL), as was the S3. Also SL and Q successors are on the way (see rumors). Leica X-U can still be bought here in Europe and...

It's both. You think the Canikon lenses are functionally "worth" two times the price of the Tamron counterparts? Is the Nikon 50/1.8 for their Z mount worth 6 times the price of a Yongnuo? It's...

I guess you wouldn't use either, so I suggest the Leica lens, since it's certainly a better investment.

Leica has been making special editions for a long time (check out the Wikipedia page for the Leica M6). It's a good and totally legitimate revenue stream for them. It would be depressing if that...

No. Your analysis is entirely and thoroughly wrong and shows very little understanding of the history of Leica and of what Leica is today. Leica reached its height in the 1950s(!). After that,...

dpreview should really be thankful for Leica. They are such a small company compared to the rest but they provide them with a constant stream of quirky, discussion-inducing releases throughout the...

I used to carry around a 24-70/2.8 which is obviously a great range and very versatile lens and a go-to for things like wedding photography. But these days I prefer a 24-105 f4 and a 50/1.8. The...

This lens is obviously for noobs, because all a real Pro cares about is shallow depth of field. The true hallmark of pro photography. Or is it about low light? Which is equally a huge deal with...
-
Yes, it's a good approach but I am sure there a few "whales" with tens of thousands of photos who are probably not photography enthusiasts but might use the storage of other means. But even if they...

The Leica color science, micro-contrast and 3D pop is just without equal. Easily worth the price of entry alone. I mean just look at that green.

L-Mount shaping up nicely. Combing the lenses of Panasonic, Leica and the announced conversions from Sigma there will be almost 30 lenses available for the L-Mount by the end of the year.

1. We are talking about a tripod here, so I am not seriously concerned or outraged by marketing tactics like this. It's okay, not a big deal. 2. A "shill" is a spokesperson or promoter for a...

Youtube shills are already all over this product, turned up twice in my Youtube recommendations today. Seems to be the greatest thing since sliced bread and definitely better than every other...

I agree. Another big reason is the HDR on modern smartphones, that merges multiple exposures basically instantly. With a DSLR a beginner might just get a blown-out sky or no shadow detail. I would...

Both can be true. "Looking worse" doesn't necessarily mean that the resolution or dynamic range is worse in principle but that the automatic mode on phones is often better at exposing the scene...

So what? Laws are man-made and can be changed. You think the monkey knew that he was "taking a selfie"? What the shutter button does? How to adjust the settings so his face is in perfect focus?
-
Why should the photo not be copyrighted? The creative process was controlled and thought up by the photographer and of course he should have the copyright for photos like this monkey selfie....

Perfect for their target market: Olympus is for old pros from the film days who know about color and want accurate representation but their eyesight is quite weak and they shot film so the...

No, but I can advertise and lobby for what I think is best. I can criticize, give my opinion and call out business tactics that hurt me as a customer. I am married to no brand and feel no...
