Portion Control

Oh man, if this had a high-res pixel shift mode...
It’d be pretty cool.

This is how it started with Sony. Minolta imaging/camera division was sold off to them. Sony took the tech and patents and developed further and made the dominant new format out of what was left of...

Used D600. ~16K shutter count. Tamron SP 45mm f/1.8. (Yes, there are a half dozen tiny specks on the sensor in a far corner, visible in a blue sky at f/22; it doesn't bother me.) Camera is new to ...

In truth, if you're shooting landscapes you not only need more than 24MP, but also a sensor size larger than full frame. As shown in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzvCvYWlu78 Details, ...

Here’s how my story ended. The 16-55 went back. I bought it expecting an ultimate use case of 1/3rd event work, 1/3rd video, and 1/3rd landscape. With things as they are in the world right now, I ...

I could imagine the day when Canon and Nikon will be making only mirrorless cameras and Pentax will own the space as a boutique DSLR brand. Kind of how Leica is with rangefinders, only Pentax will...

It's certainly possible to get a green focus confirmation box on top of something that is not 'in focus' to our human eyes with an on-sensor focus system. It just won't have the kinds of errors ...

Where did you buy your lenses, Greg? You're in Central Texas, too. Do you buy local or online? B&H?

Here's my follow-up report on this. There were a few posts mentioning that my example shot was definitely sub-par so I went ahead and pursued two responses. First was to check and see if the ...

I bought the 16-55 about a week ago based on the glowing reviews, and seemingly excellent performance of the store demo copy. It's fine at 16mm. Seems to lose some sharpness between 16 and 30mm ...

Well, We're looking at RAW, not JPEG. I guess that means any difference sharpening would be not a user-adjustable setting. We're looking at DPR's own comparison tool, so I can 't say what the focus ...

This is something I noticed when looking at the studio scene comparison tool. Small detail contrast in the D610 test shot image appears to be less sharp when assessed against most other 24-ish MP ...

Thanks for the responses. Sounds like it's not worth it. Saved me $30.

Thinking about getting this for my D600 to make manual focusing easier. I have some AI lenses (none of them faster than f/2) and while I find the green focus confirmation light to work better than ...

I need to do long (30+ minutes) head & shoulders / 'talking head' shots. Video needs to have a creative (rather than straight news / journalism) look. HD only, not 4K. I have a Fuji X-T2. Really ...

Thanks for the info. Good to know before I further consider investing in an external recorder. Compared to the D600, the D750 appears to have much better performance with regards to aliasing, as ...

The D600 isn't very popular for video these days but I'm thinking I might be more likely to find someone who can answer here... The D600 can output HD video to an external recorder (e.g. an Atomos ...

Is it a Nikon FX forum question or a Video forum question? The D600 isn't very popular for video these days so I'm thinking I might be more likely to find someone who can answer here... The D600 ...

I love the idea of an M6ii but I will soon start working on a project that will require monitoring audio during recording and review for the M6ii states that it lacks a headphone jack. I know I ...

These look fine. Images from my kit are a far cry from that kind of across-the-frame consistency. I think maybe it's time for me to send in the camera and the lens for the warranty service to look at.
