True enough... Though I'm not sure the car analogy quite works for cameras which is a device that requires you to buy extra parts to make it work, but parts that will work on all future models. But ...

Let's look at the product positioning of the 6d - it is an entry level FF stills camera with some bonus video features; meant for upgraders from apsc stills photographers into the FF world. I ...

Don't forget Gimp!
Darktable - certainly looks very interesting - even imports lightroom xmp.. We need more projects like that - I'll be prepared to pay for a Windows version...

Fujica, so I am not only a 'liar', 'crusader' but also a thief - haha.. I go to a store and BUY a cd or I RENT a movie from my local video rental - I BOUGHT Lightroom and CS6 - how does this make a...

So Fujica if you are happy to rent everything you own and have some company keep your work hostage - power to you man. But PLEASE don't call me a liar and 'crusader' because I happen to voice my...

All the signs are there that Adobe is dropping the standalone version - too bad for photographers like me who have been loyal customers for many years - Adobe obviously does not need our money any...

Yup, read it... Did you?

I think this is why this camera is seen by most pros as nothing more than a curious gadget at the moment. It has been said before - AF can only really be tested on wide aperture 300mm and up. On...

..Using Indian PSLV rocket launch on Friday (23rd). The satellite is interesting since it apparently uses slightly modified consumer tecnology (low cost): the camera is essentially a 5d Mark III ...

Thanks This sort of confirms what I have been discovering the last few weeks on my new Phantom 4 Pro - it might be one of the better drone cameras out there, but still way behind even entry level ...

Body and layout virtually identical to 6d mk1 with the following improvements: - Better sensor (24Mp, higher DR) - DPAF - Slightly faster (fps) - Same AF layout but better AF on peripheral points. ...

So if not 'superior' what is it in your 'evidence' that will convince any Canon or Nikon user to switch?
Sony 'taking market share'?? :-) :-) Fact is Sony has gained ZERO market share in 11 years...

Rubberdials: 'Half baked' is how I view your evidence of Sony 'superior' techology :-) Nothing you mentioned is in any way revolutionary or even 'better' than competing products - zero compelling...

Marty: 'Nikon is doomed' seems to be a popular topic here nowadays - maybe wait a bit and see before predicting - they just might have a trick or two up their sleaves yet ;-)
Mirorrless is a...

So... After all the hoopla and Sony's grandiose claims (of being number 2 now) they are still a mediocre third place - virtually not gaining ANY ground in the last few years.
The fault they are...

Refreshing article: Thanks Barney... Brings up fond memories of adventures with my pair of mkII's - my first foray into the digital realm. Did not quite trust it yet, since I still 'backed up'...

I don't think we dispute that the A9 is a good camera, but whether pros (specifically Canon Pros - now I wonder why they are targeted?) would want to switch, and by implication, switch en-masse......

Not going to happen... Its not just camera operation that is radically different, but flashes, remotes, batteries... Which photographer will want to schleppe all that in and out of a stadium just...

Can you REALLY imagine a bunch of top Sports Illustrated photographers ditching their very reliable Canon or Nikon gear, which they have been using for years, just to switch to a body with 20fps? A...

Haha... And you, sir, is a very typical Sony fanboy. Let's see how many Sonys we'll see on the pro circuit soon as you predict. Sony is throwing the kitchen sink at Canon now, but they cannot even...
