Being an artistic more than a quantitative type, I'm not gong to challenge your test procedure (though using the same lens for both is an elementary rule). I'm going to ask why you photographed the...

Overall in digital photography. sharpness is a solved problem. Any of the FF cameras mentioned in this article will provide detailed files sufficient for magazine spreads or large prints. They're...

I use a K-1 every day, for work and pleasure. I'm astounded that DPR would suggest moving Crop from the third dial. I use this function more often than any other controls but the exposure dials and...

What lenses, exactly, does Pentax lack? A wideangle tilt shift, made less necessary by PP, and shift adapters for MF lenses. A compact 70-200/4 zoom, which I really do miss. Aside from that,...

I know nothing about Ricoh's branding. If you hate to see your camera's brand name on an office copier, please don't buy a Canon! All I can say is that my GRII surpasses all my expectations for a...

I don't know your market- I'm in Denver, which is high-priced, but not tippety-top. Homes are scarce here, and they sell very quickly. In that market, I've had only one of about 10 drone clients ...

I don't care what bird you buy to fly, but let me give you a lesson about market pricing. Forty dollars per shoot is peanuts! It's an insult to pros in the industry. You'll be doing yourself no ...

The tech at the DJI store yesterday said it was good for six-second exposures, but I haven't tried that yet. Today was my first flight with a P4P. I kept the SS high and the resolution was ...

Ditto for that recommendation. RP101 helped me pass on the first try. It's friendly and authoritative, and definitely teaches to the test.

Good point, Kristof! There is no one "correct" angle for bounce flash. I use bounce literally every day in my real estate work. Today I bounced with a flash aimed straight up, and also backwards at...

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, aka "sweating the small stuff" - a person who wouldn't be able to ignore the intrusion of the lens adaptor into the lower part of the OVF view.

I love my GRII! But it's hard to think how it could be improved much. A wider than 21mm conversion lens would thrill me, but that's just me.

That's surprising, because I read Nikon users constantly complaining about a lack of pro-quality DX lenses. Sure, there's a half-dozen 18-xxx zooms in various iterations, plus a few standard ...

It seems to cost more and more to win the race- who can take the blurriest photo?

Not light-up buttons, but there are lights on the back of the screen to do the job. But Pentax had this kind of light-up buttons on even its cheapest DSLR, the K-R, eight years ago!

What's the practical use for this much resolution? Photo-surveillance?

It all may come back to bite the camera makers in the butt. Once users see how enlargeable their files are, with no visible...

That's not a Mk. II, but a whole new camera. The mirror and mirror box would have to be enlarged, with larger shutter.

And Pentax has been doing this for almost two years...

I have a very hard time imagining a way that this or any small consumer quad could wreck a train, except for distracting the engineer. And this video shows no evidence of effort to do that, just a...

The bokeh in the dancers looks lovely, but the dog looks like an old, undercorrected Soviet lens was used. So first impression is, good with low contrast but poor with high.
