Have you researched the relative optical quality of the 12-60 and 18-300? The 15x zoom is likely to suffer somewhat compared to the 5x zoom, which may offset the IQ benefit of the larger sensor. If ...

Dude, look at the faces. Those ARE the underclass.

Heck, I even miss Dubya. By comparison, he was an intellectual giant with a heart of gold.

Review sites consistently point out that Panasonic's S-AF is as fast as the flagship DSLRs and works in lower light than most of them.

Let me rephrase the statement as a question: Do you print big enough for more pixels or less noise to make a visible difference? Next question: What noise reduction software are you using?

Nobody else will. Good idea. If you evaluate your images at 100%, you'll always see flaws, no matter what camera you use. I recommend you try DxO Optics Pro 11 Elite for RAW processing. Its PRIME ...

I just got a used LF1 to complement my MFT kit. Been wanting a truly pocketable camera and decided the LF1 was it. My old LX7 was a great camera but too big for a pants pocket and not that much ...

Ouch. I stand corrected. Should have done the math before I posted. Thanks for doing my homework for me!

Panasonic's LX10 is an advanced pocket camera with great image quality, and it focuses down to 3cm from the subject. Built-in image stabilization and a bright lens will help get sharp shots of ...

Um, if you sell the 7D2, the 5DIV won't be a second body. Where does the 7D2 fall short for you? What are you expecting a 5DIV to do that the 7D2 doesn't? Understand that, for wildlife at the long ...

If you want something to have with you all the time, how about something small but capable, like a Panasonic LX100 or - even smaller - LX10? The LX10 can focus down to 3cm, so it's good for really ...

I didn't know that. Thanks! Is that true with other Voigtlander MFT lenses?

To the OP: Indeed. It may be cheaper to buy, and then sell at the end of the project. If you take good care of the gear, it should fetch 60%-80% of the purchase price if it's a popular item. [snipped]

How many pixels you need is correlated to TWO factors: 1) the size of the print, and 2) the distance from which it will be viewed. Typically, wall art is viewed at a distance of about 1.5x the ...

See the resolution chart here: Voigtlander 17.5mm f/0.95 Nokton Lens Review I don't have experience with either lens. Caveat emptor. Seems to me it depends on whether edge sharpness is important ...

Rather than switching, I'd be looking at an advanced compact as a complement to what you already have. Something like an LX100 or RX100. See, I have pretty small MFT cameras already, and yes, ...

Thanks! Went on my honeymoon (5 years late). Enjoyed it greatly. I recommend it, especially for photographers. In case you're interested, my homepage at jacquescornell.photography has about a dozen ...

Excellent point about timing - sometimes just going at a different time than everyone else can provide a different viewpoint. Decades ago, I shot the Taj Mahal just after dawn and had the place ...

I always figure that someone else has shot that better than I could, and move on. I mean, with famous landmarks, you can be sure that some photographer who lives nearby has spent weeks and months ...
