Equivalence is a simple geometric fact, there's nothing to argue. The fun thing about facts is that they remain true even if you don't understand them.

Round it to 500%.

Nikon has some serious assets, for example a bit over $5 billion in just cash. They can survive a few bad quarters making a few million loss. At the current rate just the cash reserve would last ...

Why compare it to a lens that's 2.3 stops faster? Put a 0.5x speed booster to the Sony 20/1.8 and you get 10mm f/0.9 and then mount it to a Pen-F. Or put a 2x teleconverter to the Laowa, mount it ...

Make sure you compare like for like. Lumix LX15 lens at its widest is 8.8mm f/1.4 (not 24 mm) If you compare both at their FF equivalent values, they are Nikon: 27mm f/5 Lumix: 24mm f/3.8 (0.7 stop ...

Nothing is sharp in that picture despite monstrous oversharpening halos. Motion blur or misfocus?

When you put a 400/2.8 on the D850 and 200/2 on D6 and carry them both you stop worrying about a few ounces here and there.

No, why? New stuff has manufacturer warranty and I have insurance. I won't buy shady website "protection plans", they remind me of mafia "protection" extortion racket. :-D

I don't know what you're at here. Strange, as the F mount successfully accommodated FX size film for decades. Did you miss this? DX overall has sold really well, just that D300S and D500 didn't. ...

Okay.

Some statistics I saw some time back pointed out that D500 hasn't sold well at all. If that is true there won't be a successor because the market just is way too small and diminishing all the ...

That's cheap, a true giveaway. It is five grand cheaper than the Nikon version. It will never be in stock but forever in backorder at this price, if it isn't optically a dog.

But Pepsi Challenge proves that Pepsi is better, right? No worries though, since Coke  adds life.

The solution was provided a week ago. Use the in-camera Active D-Lighting and be happy.

You must be reading in flat view? If you look at the thread in threaded view you'll realize I debunked a nonsense post which was a childish work of fiction. Hence 6 upvotes.

You are looking at the "learning" thing the wrong way. Nobody today needs to learn photography the same way your grandfather did. It is an offensive idea. Subject and lighting are the main ...

Internal zoom lens has to have a barrel long enough to fit the maximum length. When the lens is zoomed the barrel doesn't shorten. Some see this "always maximum length" solution as non-optimal.

Here's another :-D Goodbye micro four thirds you once promised me an eternity, a burial shroud on the table. I am but a wilted flower in the end, say goodbye I cry for your smile. The anguish plagues ...

Olympus last hope a small sensor, not a mope May wretchedness come upon us there is only loss a flickering candle on the table, a maroon smile not but a fleeting hope a dim aperture, not made of emery

I have disables all images. This also cures the jumping link problem mentioned above.
