Hasa

Thank you for a thorough explanation, however I must add a note on the lens-to-chip distance below: True enough if it is exactly the same lens design that was designed for a DSLR with mirror. ...

The D850 and the A7RM3 smokes the digital Hassy, not the other way round. The digital Hassy advantage nowadays is not the film era 6x6 Hassy advantage. The Hassy chip is 4.4 x 3.3 cm. The diff in...

Right you are! So now it is all about the price vs. performance! ...and surprisingly the D850 smokes the mirror less Hassy in the sharpness test (Hassy w. color moiree) and the iso invariance test...

Compared to D850 "Its resolution is fractionally lower", actually moiree gives advantage to D850 as seen in the comparison both at 100 and 3200 iso. Check out the comparator at the bw drawing of...

Hike the price a bit and stick an 80 or 100 Mpix "blad-size" sensor in there. With dumb adapters any old MF lens could be used. With a shift adapter like the ones made for Sony bodies it would be...

I have it and the stabilization is amazing. I did not carry a tripod when trekking in New Zealand, so slow-shutter snaps of waterfalls @ 1/8 sec were possible hand-held.

Hi Marc,
Yes I was quite happy with my images from Antelope Canyon. I did exposure bracketing and HDR. It was easy to get a stable footing: push the bottom of the camera firmly against a sandstone...

Sadly, sadly Sony killed the innovative R1. An updated version with 4K video, 20MP sensor and that same, amazing 24-120mm F2.8-4.8 equiv. Zeiss lens with 1mm between rear lens element and sensor....

There is a "proper peer-aps-c mirrorless comparison" here:

The A6300 is the clear winner, assuming people have 4K TV sets.
Assuming no interest in...

Seriously! I just shot the blood moon last night and by the time my eye could only see B/W using my Zeiss 10x binoculars, I am happy to say my D800 still recorded colors no human eye can see. I am...

You  may be right, time will show! Until then I am enjoying the revolutionary combination of technologies in the Nikon D800 :-) Remember the 4 years the Canonistas were complaining about Canon ...

sigh! so 20ieth century and not really scalable at all.  drones man, drones! With image recognition sw the process could be made automatic and would only require some solar-powered charging ...

I agree that it is an insane price and to boot the Nikon offers much more flexibility, light gathering capability and resolution because it can fit a range of FF Nikon bodies from 20 to 45 Mpix...

I did not mean to ask if Canikon would merge, rather than being forced into interoperability by eager-beaver Canon EF and Nikon F to mirrorless adapters, not to Sony this time. Previous Canon + ...

So sorry about your niece! Nice picture! Your monkeys certainly look agressive! I once left the car and walked back 50 metres to video baboons in a remote reservation with very rare tourists in ...

You are right - there are lots of manufacturers of adapters from dumb - metal tube adapters all the way through electronically enabled adapters to "speed" adapters with lenses and the unique shift ...

Our tastes are similar. I took up gardening in a big way in 1988 about 2 years after our marriage. Gardening is my wifes primary hobby. She does everything except cast reinforced granite tile ...

Snapseed is great fun to use, it can crop but it cannot downsample.

Hi, I have a SWIVI for my Nikon D800. It is well made. It has diopter adjustment and can be easily removed from the plate that comes with the swivi and attaches under the camera. It gives an ...
