My point is that with the Chinese, the question is not whether they'll scam you, but rather *when* they'll scam you.

That country has a rather unique, and unsavory mix...

An easy way to check the stability of a display's color stability over time is to set it to a known, constant brightness level, display a neutral gray picture filling the screen, put it in a...

Desktop displays are mains-connected, and electrical power availability is thus not a problem. Desktop display manufacturers can thus use LEDs that are cheaper, and comparatively less...

Some possible ways to improve a digital imaging system's DR: (1) Use a finer semiconductor manufacturing process to reduce the total thickness of the sensor's metal interconnect layers, thus lowering ...

Non sequiturs follow from false expectations , possibly ;-)

That Petapixel article author may be onto something. Beyond the mathematical implications, if you consider the physics of exposure, considering that exposure has a fourth component might explain ...

Makes sense. Once you have exposure formed from these 4 elements, multiple exposures won't necessarily commute — i.e. the sequencing of these exposures when you start to multiply them will, in ...

I suspect they only measured the thickness of the 1st glass cover, and not the total thickness of the material of the two covers. Original DPReview picture .

My educated guess is that the DIGIC chip is a digital-only chip, and that you cannot feed analog signals directly into it. My educated guess is therefore that some kind of A/D conversion is taking ...

The Canon 5DIV was released in 2016/08 The Nikon D3 was released in 2007/08, i.e. nine years before the Canon 5DIV. One expects that there's been at least some technological progress over nine ...

This just shows that it doesn't even occur to you that you know nothing about the noise characteristics of the ADC that's used in the 5DIV, and that it doesn't even occur to you that an improvement ...

I do understand that if one postulates, like you do, that the signals travelling on the blue flex cable can't possible have any possible relation to the sensor, despite arriving on a connector on ...

I have Googled, and the reliability of the sources claiming that the 1DX II (released in Feb. 2016) has on-chip ADCs is no higher than the reliability of the sources claiming that the 5DIV ...

So, your opinion is that it makes sense, for some reason, to route the multi-conductor blue flex — which happens to have traces aligned with an Analog Devices chip — to the sensor board first, ...

The flash sync speed of a typical moden camera is 1/250s. The vertical-travellling, mechanical front and rear shutter curtains are thus able to cover the 24mm height of the image area in less than ...

A "year and a half" ? The interview was conducted during the "Canon World" expo, in September 2015. The 5DIV was released in August 2016. Considering the development lead times of a core component ...

And what makes you think that Maeda-san might be talking about an existing product, like the 5DIV ? He says " I made the decision going forward to concentrate on the on-chip ." This might just ...

Care to name a reliable source — e.g. a press release from Canon, an interview of the 5DIV's engineering team... — substantiating that rather intriguing assertion of yours about the 5DIV having ...
