The Name is Bond

"If you seriously think high ISO capabilities can replace flash when shooting into shadow then you're ignorant. "

Sure, for fine fartists, I mean artists. But most of us don't need much detail in...

The 'ambient' pic example is just very underexposed. A half-decent modern APS-C with a larger aperture lens can do justice to that shot without needing the underexposure.

Flash has it's place, but atmospheric photography isn't really it.

And why use flash for family pics? You don't need the quality and it's intrusive. We could all put up with it in the days of one...

Rather expressing yourself badly. Care to explain how we misunderstood, rick?

Not my experience. Fantastical sharpness, rather.

Wow! Mind-blowing detail in those 1,200 × 1,600 files.

I think the lenses have been outresolved!!!!

Why are the politically correct always so unpleasant?

"@The Name Is Bond A sexist comment that could have come from the fictional source of your screen name. . ."

Thanks for that. But I don't subscribe to the new, and unscientific, dogmas being...

Very unlikely to be a she.

You have to be either extremely dumb or extremely rich to consider checked luggage for that kind of kit.

So no need to feel sorry for the dumb rich-kid who likely owned it.

I think someone has a flash obsession.

I would include a circular polariser, a white balance target, color munki and getting handy with curves.

The pedantic are cluttering up the forum with their OCD obsession about the word 'optical zoom'.

There are two lenses involved, and one of them acts as the termination point of the 'zoom'. That's...

Iphone's have ok image quality.

Google's pixel smashes the iphone 7

Then you go ahead and talk about "cropping in" and we'll all talk about zooming in.

Wow! Talk a bit faster. Are we really all that thick that we need someone to read the script quite so slowly.

This article is cruelly completely wrong and I am certain, to an unusual degree, that is part of a laser guidance system from the Star Wars efforts. Someone ought to receive punishment.

(Show us a...

You're right but not in contradicting the article. By far the majority will be happy with the camera phone that might previously have been thinking of a DSLR.

The market for half-decent cameras on...

Sure, but for how long?

The best cameras will always be in top phones, but who cares when your midrange phone takes facebookable bokeh portraits.

What first time buyers?

Canon understand the market, I think. It's arguably more businesslike than its competitors. Which is why we see better AF/video and poorer DR.

Don't know why people are looking at this at 100%. Or even resized to 20MP. A highly usable and croppable resolution is 12MP. Seems a bit silly of them to offer up a 50MP image as it has the...
