Slideshow Bob

While I'd sort of like to write one of those asexual technical responses, I can't. Those are some lovely, smoking hot ladies. Nice work! Nice to see medium format at work, but the 200 f/2 is (as ...

Makes you wonder what's wrong with everyone these days!

I don't think anyone is trying to justify inferior image quality. Here in the UK, the Sigma costs £2599, and the Nikon costs £9499. You can't expect the Sigma to be as good as the Nikon, because...

I didn't call anyone here anything. But o.k.

I get what you mean. I wasn't denigrating the Sigma (I love mine), but I know that the Nikon 300m f/2.8 VRII is quite a bit sharper, so a zoom that can perform as well as the prime is pretty...

There's a war? Damn!
If you're saying that ML fanboys don't call DSLRs "dinosaurs", you're simply wrong. If you're saying ML fanboys don't continually whine about how DSLRs should "die", you're...

I have the Sigma Sport 120-300. It's a nice lens (a bit heavy), but it's not really in the same league as the Nikon. Look at those MTF charts!

"these special people simply choose tools that work"

That was my whole point! Unfortunately, people who use anything other than ML cameras can't use the tools that work for them these days without...

Don't really care what equipment was used, but most of these awards go to DSLR shots. The only thing you can say about that is that it proves that the ML fanboys pretending that you can't take a...

Take a look a 3:05 into the following video...

That's how much better a mechanical shutter is than an electronic shutter (even one as good as the on...

Ah, but I didn't bring the a9 up in the conversation, did I? :-)

Oh, and on your supposed mirrorless advantages...

Weight... not really. Canon's 400 f/2.8 weighs less than Sony's. the 600mm lenses gives the advantage to the Sony....by 10g!

Smaller? Wow, with a...

@Sillen,
See, that's your whole problem. You're a spec sheet warrior. You think that you can't take a good photo unless it's taken in a 20fps burst. You don't actually give a sh!t that 20fps...

The person who made that comment is very clearly talking about users of the D5 or other pro Nikon sports cameras. That's why they would be "confident and use the interface without thinking". How do...

@Sillen,

"Many discuss as if there are only old sports photographers and no new photographers, in all countries in the world. What a false and depressive world view. There are new photographers...

"We need more than one good lens Bob"

What the hell are you talking about?

I think you would have to be working pretty hard to NOT find a good enough lens for any of these cameras. Sony? Fine, no problem. Nikon? The native Z mount glass is very nice, and adapted F mount...

My favourite Fuji camera up until now was the old S5 Pro. Love that thing! However, this is looking like a pretty good option for me. I only use my Fuji for wide angle and "normal" photography,...

"In summary, a camera is a tool, and when people are passionated about their camera (maybe the only one they own), let them be. Live and let live.

Love and show kindness to the choice of...

Wow. That stuff it just flat out fantastic! So many of the competitions seem a little contrived these days, but this is top notch!

That title photo with the bears is actually my favourite though!
