Yes, you get a projected image because the focusing screen becomes illuminated by light rays striking it and therefore it itself becomes the light source as far as viewing is concerned. It's not ...
-
With a DSLR/SLR you are only looking at an image focused onto the focusing screen. A light source is focused to a point on the lower surface of the screen (It is the same exact distance from the ...
-
Only if it passes directly onto the retina, which in the case of a DSLR / SLR it doesn't. But we're still looking at an image projected onto a focusing screen. There is no "direct hit straight into ...

A DSLR's mirror does not focus light so so much for the accuracy of that comment. To repeat, I certainly do not recommend seeking out lasers to look at with your DSLR. But if you accidentally ...
-
Not with a telephoto I wouldn't because it would be both uncomfortable and unwise. But I'm sure most of us have taken landscapes or scenes with the sun in the image using a variety of lenses. ...
-
No, I'm afraid you are not correct in this particular case, despite your experience. As I'm sure you know a DSLR (or SLR) projects incoming light from the lens via the mirror onto the focusing ...
-
My logic is certainly reasonable. Perhaps you would care to explain why you think my conclusion is wrong?
-
I've no idea what you mean by that.
-
You are looking at an image of the laser on the focusing screen, not the laser itself with a DSLR. So eye damage is extremely unlikely.
-
No it couldn't damage your eye. When you look through the viewfinder of a DSLR you are not actually looking at the subject itself but at an image of the subject projected onto the focusing screen.

I suppose manufacturers could use BMW's Optiglass. http://hoaxes.org/af_database/permalink/bmw_optiglass

Actually it is that simple. Canon may want to make cameras because of their history and because that's one of the businesses they happen to be involved in but ultimately they will make the ...
-
Manufacturers will make what sells. If there is enough demand for big cameras and they can be made and sold profitably then we'll probably continue to be offered some. Ditto for small cameras. The ...

Mike, it's not about me. Personally I don't really give a damn whether people like big cameras, small cameras, DSLRs or ML. But the manufacturers tend to have to back a horse and that will be ...
-
You highlight a very important point - while many photographers are keen to get the best results they can, there is also for many a limit to the size of equipment that they are prepared to ...
-
Actually the evidence is that younger people (I won't say buyers because largely they aren't) are not particularly interested in cameras at all. Which is a big problem if you are a manufacturer. ...
-
Exactly. That is the precise issue that camera manufacturers face with their 'base' of older users.
-
They are not really interested in switchers from other brands. That market is too small and too difficult. The future potential is with those people that don't have a camera at all, whether it is ...

But how long is "quite a while"? And regardless of that what companies do you know of that base their long term marketing strategy on middle aged and older people - other than care home ...
