The Nikon D80 & D200 still used CCDs.
Canon's use of the CMOS sensor was considered revolutionary and CCDs were the norm.
The first Sony made CMOS sensor DSLRs didn't arrive until 2007.
There is...

And are PENTAX 645AF2 lenses are designed any differently?
BTW the Pentax 645Z is look like an absolute bargain right now - assuming 50MP is enough.
I still use a Leica D Vario-Elmar 14-150mm...

The technical origin of the 3:2 ratio in the 1900s, as read from ‘The Leica’ by Paul-Henry van Hasbroek, can be found in cinematography, of which 35mm film was the standard. The film emulsions were...

3:2 better for landscape photography?
Except that advantages of the 4:3 ratio include the fact that it improves the telecentric optical path meaning that light hitting the sensor is traveling...

All other medium format cameras are in the 4:3 aspect ratio, if Leica have gone 3:2 then that is a huge mistake.
I believe fashion photographers prefer 4:3 aspect ratio of existing medium format...

A bit like vinyl records ... if you can be bothered go for it.
Kids these days think that CD players are old fashioned.
And my DSLR still takes Compact Flash media ... so old.

It is actually especially strong ... one of the fastest focusing cameras I own.
And does not even slow down much in the dark.
Oh well, people can just state whatever baseless assertions they like I...

Yes, you have a fine camera in the A7III. I still have a great collection on Sony, sigma, Tamron Alpha glass.
But these days I have more invested in the MFT system.
For my purposes the quality is...

My Sony A700 is the last to have a lot of Minolta DNA - eye start AF and IBIS.
It wasn't that far off the Nikon D300 at the time and they shared the virtually identical 12 MP sensor.
The D300 had...

Sony's latest cameras still seem to take Memory Stick Duo/Pro Duo/Pro-HG Duo as an alternative to SD.
But yeah, why would you?

I would buy one ... when the price drops.

+Ten years later and I also own an OM-D E-M1 plus a decent collection of legacy Four Third & MFT lenses.

Check the review of the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II, it has a far better designed control layout, menu system, touch screen, and hand grip than the RX series + a more versatile zoom range. All...

I'm probably an unpleasant man, but not a predatory one and I only ever read Playboy for the articles.

Canon G16 offered great handling -- although a poor OVF. Obviously the image quality is no match, although I find it still usable.
I can also recommend the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100. The focusing...

Well your machine is probably a 'Mactel' if has an i5 CPU on board.
My gaming laptop has not one but two GPUs -- in SLi configuration.
Not sure if Apple could give me a laptop like that, even if I...

Vague even.

As I understand it Tesla has undertaken to replace that larger Model S battery pack for $12,000 after eight years of ownership. I know you should have gotten rid of the car by then, but still I...

Except that Toyota and Hyundai are going down the hydrogen fuel cell route.
