Hey DPR I really want to know why you have put "record setting" in the title of this article. What record has it set? The company themselves seem to make no reference to records so why have you added it?
technotic: So is it a record?
I think they are claiming it is the first lens with a 17 blade aperture not that it had the most blades?
So is it a record?
cosinaphile: this is nonsense when katie looks off to the side it creates a mood lots of negative space offers a sense of isolation and mystery ,our smallness in a vastness... its the best photo you dont know you took .
as long as your oversimplifying and giving cheap rules instead of ....hmmm suggesting people spend time looking at art and great photography and cultuivate an eye for shape and movement and doing justice to your rectangle
as long as you are giving advice , but dont seem to really know exactly what you're talking about ... let a nonvideographer give you some advice :
check the acoustics of your space, mike placement, and your volume levels
cultivate a speaking pattern less annoying ...
. slow down frantic does not get the point across a better
and find real problems .... your waterfall isnt better than the other waterfall
the real thing aesthetically all could learn from is how to see.,. how to slow down and see a painting a poem a photo or music .. a moment
No, yes (for points) and no :-).
In the Raw: Imagine this...a wide print, maybe 24" by 10" high. It's a white empty room, with a small round table in the middle, on it is a half empty wine bottle with a red rose in it. Now put John Lennon on the extreme right, with his nose almost touching the edge of the frame, looking out with a pensive expression. Or an excited one.
Would that be a bad composition?
John Lennon was one of the most successful song writers of all time so I think you are in a very small minority.

I hope you can take something away from mine.
My advice to you is:
* Slow down.
* Cultivate a posting pattern that is less annoying.
* Use capital letters to signal the start of a sentence.
* Use periods to end a sentence and not an occasional "...".
This will really help people read and digest the points you are trying to make.
ParappaTheSnappa: Dp review has been posting a lot of videos like this, and I've noticed everyone in the comment sections is a douche.
A bunch of amateur photo dongs who think their snarkey comments and know-it-all posts will get them...what? Praise and Likes by the other amateur photo dongs? What kind of a loser picks apart an innocuous list video to build themselves up? I bet I know what kind of loser. The kind that nobody likes in real life. The kind of loser that no one else will listen to because we all can't stand them.
Go head, be king of the dweebs. Im pretty sure this guy has made more money doing what he loves than you ever did.
@quietrich can you translate "dongs"?

Do you know about capital letters?
Is it the world's most expensive?
Peter_Birch: Gave up after 23 secs. His voice gave me a headache like listening to a road drill. Why does he try to fit millions of words into 6mins?. Slow down dude and give me one tip.
dpreview.com?
OneMoreComment: Looks like fuji got a competitor
Fuji and Yashica could be the new Canon and Nikon?
I expect to see as many articles about this as the Sony A9 ok Rishi 😉? I expect Yashica have developed their own sensor fab plant while they were away.
sh10453: It's unfortunate that Kyocera had acquired and quickly destroyed these two iconic names.
I hope that Contax and Yashica will rise from the dead, although they would be completely different firms, except for the names.
A cigarette in an ad in this day and age??? That is not very smart.
Okaaaaay....getting back to the Yashica story....
They could offer a free Lunar for anyone who buys one?
composed: I tried to convince my wife that it would be crazy for us not to buy one at $11K off; she didn't fall for it. ;-\
My wife tried to convince me to buy one. I said nein.
privater: Rule 1: Don't trust `free` service.
Rule 2: Don't trust any Google service.
Rule 0: Don't talk about the rules
This will predict where things will fall?
Dan DeLion: Hopefully, DPR will not take 2 years to review the 850. Remember the 810!
Yes, in 2 years Nikon may not even be in business. It may end up on Throwback Thursday at some point though.
Joed700: Should I upgrade? This is a rather difficult question, because having the D810, D750, D600 and 6D made me realize that there is a catch to everything. I find myself always shooting with a 20ish MP body, and I rarely take out my D810 because more MP slows down my work flow. On top of that, unless I use VR lenses/tripod, I ended up with less keepers, especially shooting longer focal length lenses at wide aperture. Indoors shooting is out of the question for me; I wouldn't push the ISO on the D810 beyond ISO 1600. That's just from the technical aspect of my own debate, and the reliability issues on Nikon bodies certainly is a minus for me; I had the D600 and still own the D750..
With 45 MP on the D850, the mentioned issues will only get more challenging for sure. If I'm a videographer, this is a no-brainer...you get the best of both worlds.
I would need to see the high ISO performance results from either DXO Mark or equivalent, and that's is going to be a major deciding factor.
Seems like a "no" then.
What if I have a Hasselblad Lunar? Is the D850 a good upgrade? I've been waiting for the Lunar II for ages. Not sure if when it will come out.
