Who would have thunk ?
Glad that Dell abandoned their torturous keyboard layout and resurrected dedicated End and Home keys. These could only be reached through the Function key, or Ctrl+Function for moving to the top / bottom of a document. For the XPS 17 Dell could have added a numeric keypad without compromising key size. Or become creative and adding dedicated video / photo editing control elements.
Jon555: One other thing you can do (for less money) is take a stereo image (Stereo camera or Stereo Lens or two cameras close together) and software convert that to have a depth map (plus one of the original images). Haven't tried the result in Photoshop though, one for later perhaps (maybe the depth map will need inverting, or can PS be told which way is closer?).
I've done this with a Fuji W3 3D camera to make 3D images for Facebook (which annoyingly, at least when I was experimenting, didn't accept actual 3D images), but you could combine two cameras on a mount to do it with bigger sensors (the software can auto-align them to take out small mechanical differences).
Obviously works best with deep DoF, so small sensors or stopped down lenses.

(Although I think it's perhaps better to get DMag 5 and 9b from the original page than the archive provided by the author of the above page, as they are more recent.)
Holding on to my Fuji W3 for this reason. Too bad they didn't make a more advanced version. Would be great if the K lens would fit on a gfx100s.
Congratulations, Nikon ! This is out of my price range, but I am sure there will be many well priced used D850s on the maket soon.
Apple has always intentionally crippled their phones so they can charge premium $$$ for storage. It is ridiculous they are charging $500 more for the 1TB iphone 13s, or $300 more for the 512MB models.
Platinumkid: How often is smart to replace your phone, guys? I'm not talking about the youtuber in the video. I mean in general. Do you buy every new model? Or skip one, like buying 11, skipping 12 and buying 13? I'm asking out of curiosity. My personal phone just turned 3 years old, it's in good shape and I plan no replacement, for example.
Kept my iPhone 7 plus until 3 months ago when the (replaced) battery gave up and wasn't worth to replace. Had it for ~4 1/2 years. The dual camera worked great, and I especially liked the tele option. Apple supported the phone until at least this year. My new iPhone 12 pro is great but not much greater.

The Zeiss comes with its own transport elephant.
... no internal image stabilization, next !
It is puzzling that Apple decided to keep the front-facing camera on the short side of the iPad. In landscape mode, with keyboard attached, the camera is on the side, giving an awkward off center perspective on the user when conferencing. Samsung positioned the camera of Galaxy Tab S4 plus in the middle of the long side of the tablet, acknowledging professional users.
I wish Nikon would update their DC lenses. I still use my 135mm 2 DC for portraits but the focusing is loud, slow and often inaccurate. Congratulations, Canon, this lens looks great. Looking forward to tests in portrait settings.
Canon had a decrease in ILC sales of 34% in 2020. All manufacturers are currently suffering. People just don't buy new FF ILCs when they can't travel or have to tighten their expenses. At the same time, phone cameras continue to improve, leading to further erosion of the consumer market.If you bought an ILC, either a DSLR or MILC, in the last 4 years or so, their quality is so excellent there is really no need to exchange it.
I already have an A1, my Canon A1.
I am holding onto my iPhone 7 plus for now. I really like the 2x tele camera of the 7 plus that the XR and 11 don't have. I don't care for the super wide angle and night mode really, and I am not willing to cough up >$1k for the 11 pro or pro max to get the tele option. Also, Apple's trade in offers are usually bait and switch. I was burned once when my trade in was valued much lower than quoted and basically held hostage until I bought a new model. I'll wait until 2020 to see what's coming next.
Stalin would have liked this. In the old days they had to "edit" out the fallen out of favor (and executed) comrades by hand in the dark room. Not sure what happened to these photographers after the editing, off to Siberia ?
Jake2046: I really missed the old Nokia...they lead the innovation in smartphone camera. Too bad MS/Nokia missed the train...and could catch up.
I agree. Windows Phone 8.1 was by far the most intuitive and fluid OS of its time, and fast. The Pureview cameras were indeed excellent. Glance function was great. Unfortunately I had to switch to iPhone. iOS is an antiquated complicated mess, getting more complex by the day.
How does the app handle transfer of photos in HEIC format from iOS devices ? Do these files get converted into JPG files ? The Windows 10 Photos app doesn't handle HEIC files, hopefully, this will change soon.
mais51: Is this how they are spending their millions dollars in research - to produce a jack of all trades and good at nothing
Columbia has Dr. Oz on their faculty. Says everything you need to know.
My turn around was 2 weeks also. Shipped on Jan 21, returned Feb 4. I never observed banded flares, even when trying to force them. I am looking forward to years of great pictures in all situations. Thanks, DP review, for recommending this fantastic camera.
For my D750 (affected, according to serial #) it took just two weeks for shipping and service. I never observed flares, even when wide open and held against the sun above the frame, but wanted to get done with the service. I'll never regret purchasing this camera (and switching from Canon) last November to use it over the holiday season in dark northern Europe. The dynamic range is stunning. Low light sensitivity is outstanding for indoor and outdoor shots when flash is not advised (see the superb flight museum shots by DP review). Simply, a superb photographic instrument. I am looking forward to years of outstanding photos to keep. Thanks, DP review, your recommendation remains spot on.
Simple man: Dealing with the Nikon corporation is like going to prison. Once your locked in your stuck with whatever they give you. And when that 6'4 260 pound bunk mate takes a liking to you.........
Where as Dealing with Canon....
Your innocently minding your own business at the laundro-mat. In walks Penelope Cruz. She asks YOU to walk her home. Begs you to come inside, insisting you please her.
Either way your screwed. It really comes down to preference. Hey some people really like prison.
Canon. The camera non-prison liking photographers choose.
Using the laundromat ? Did you lose your photographer job because of the badly flared wedding pictures you took with your 1Dx ? I feel really sorry for you.
