1/2.6" is a 'bigger' sensor ???
Not larger than a matchhead.

A bit off-topic: This is a composite image with the galactic center with south up and a foreground not from a latitude (60+ south) where Sco  and Sgr show up this way.

Both Sigma and Tamrom have a 150-600mm f/5-6.3 superzoom which is not as bright as the 500mm or 600mm f/4L, but costs only a tenth ($1000) and weighs only half (2kg) and make decent pictures yet. N ...

Since a few years these 'only' $1000 lenses are available and, according to reviews, these are really good. These are f/5 ... f/6.3 which means a real aperture of over 90mm when fully zoomed in. An ...

Pressing the shutter button halfway down cancels the quick review and you can take the next photo.

Why only f2.8 ?
The v4 and v5 have f2 at 24mm.

This can be a solution for both 6D and Powershot G7X. It is just a piece of Yogamat 25x35cm which fits over an aircraft window and thus blocks out cabin lighting reflections completely. The bigger ...

The Powershot G7Xii has a Camera Connect app, but that is very limted as videos are downsampled and the in-camera downsampling + download costs more time than downloading the original film directly. ...

A Metabones or Sigma adapter allows Canon lenses to be mounted on a Sony SLR such as A7III with full (metering + AF) functionality. It costs a few hundred $$$, but way less than replacing all your ...

Tablets do *not* replace laptops when you do more than websurfing, emailing, etc.
Try Photoshop (or another image processing software) on a tablet. Even the iPad Pro is very limted.

The problem here is the mechanical shutter. An electronic shutter which is in phonecams is much faster and allows quickly taking a series of photos. SLRs and high-end compacts should first convert...

Stupid, a waste of resources !
Particularly in this phonecam era.

Agree, but our eyes have a 17mm f/2.8 lens when fully open and an aps-c sized sensor (the retina). But because we see actually an FOV of about a 14mm eq, the image is indeed a "computed" image.

Not anymore. Most cameras, from fullframe dslr to phonecam, are made for filming as well and are eating away the camcorder market.

Small cameras, particularly smartphones have no wide angle possibilities, wider than 24mm eq.
That is the advantage of an SLR (APS-C and FF) : there are lots of wide angles available. I don't know...

Agree. The same 'computational photography' can be used in FF SLRs which is already done in e.g. the Sony A7xx. And post-processing (e.g. image stacking of astrophotos) is also a kind of...

I think both (80d and 6d) have their advantages. In weight and portability they don't differ much. Compared to a phonecam (or even a compact) they are heavy and bulky, but that is the price you pay ...

Thanks for the tip. I did not know that there are still updates.

Usually I use iMovie for processing videos, but I discovered Openshot 2.4.1 which appears to be more versatile. But when making split screen videos (same scene taken with two cameras) I cannot crop ...

I tried it myself. Videos are taken at 1080p30, converted with Handbrake to lower bitrate (2kbit/sec). With AF set on P, set on tracking AF and sometimes objects I clicked on the screen on the ...
