Yeah, as noted above, I am hoping they will really strut their stuff and put out a D850 killer DSLR. If they build something similar to what i described above, I'll buy one in a heartbeat.  "Old ...

I think Canon and Nikon will continue to build (and promote) DSLR's for a bit longer than that.  While they have clearly adopted mirrorless as the long-term path going forward, there is still a ...

Well, Colin, I'm not sure what it was about my post that got your panties in a wad.  Yeah, I got the specific reference to DPP, but that doesn't preclude the possibility that he may or may not ...

True enough, but so what?  I have never used in-camera corrections with any of my lenses -- I would rather shoot RAW, and apply any corrections in post.  The Tamron produces pretty good ...

I have the Tamron 24-70 2.8 G2.  I would have gotten the Canon, but I wanted the IS.  This lens works like a champ on my 80D, and on my 6D.  I have the docking station, but I have not needed it, ...

24-70L 2.8 II is considerably more expensive than 24-70L 2.8.  Still no IS.

Placed 19^th in the challenge. A winter sunrise over the Washington, DC tidal basin.

I think it is a really cool shot, just as is.  If I were going play with the background color, I would go the other way, and make completely gray to reduce or eliminate the boundary between the ...

Thanks, Bill.  And, yeah, I could probably figure it out, but I tried doing the comparisons myself, and somehow I couldn't produce the chart you attached. On a separate, but related subject:  Any ...

So, how does this stack up against the Z?

I stand corrected, sir, perhaps because I came to the Bond novels somewhat early in life, but late in the series. He did, indeed, begin with the .25 Beretta 418 (an entirely inadequate caliber). ...

Bond had a Walther PPK, not a Beretta. Just sayin'.

Not really.  MSRP is a manufacturer's offering price; it is not a selling price, until a buyer agrees to it.  Canon, of course, can offer cameras at any price they choose.  But Canon cannot set the ...

Easy for me.  I really hope the R pushes mk 4 prices down, as I would love to get one.  DSLR's didn't suddenly stop working because the new cool toy hit the market.  I really like the battery life ...

Beware of these "too good to be true" offers in local sales (e.g., Craigslist, etc.) I am a prosecutor, and we are seeing a lot of robberies that begin with this sort of offer, followed by an ...

Alberto, thanks for the input.

I just got Fo-cal a couple of months ago.  I set it up with 80D and a couple of lenses, and all went well. Last weekend, I got out my 6D, and tried to get set up to calibrate a lens, and I could ...

I have looked, without success, for a systematic approach to doing MFD on a Tamron lens, using the Tap-in console.  Do you do a Dot-Tune process first, to get the numbers?  Is there another ...

Placed 13^th in the challenge. A solitary figure, alone but for a few seagulls, walking on the beach in Bandon, OR, at sunrise.

We're all guessing at marketing strategy, but the way I see it, it depends on whether Canon introduces the camera as a replacement for an existing camera, or if they introduce it as a parallel came ...
