Shooting RAW equalizing the amount of software sharpening to the output of the D3 and 1DS Mark III produces no surprises; the cameras would appear to be very similar indeed in terms of per-pixel sharpness and obviously have a similar strength AA filter. So the difference (at base ISO) comes down to how much resolution you need; the 1-DS Mark III's 1000 pixel or so advantage in both horizontal and vertical directions (912 vertically by 1360 horizontally to be precise) means more resolution and more fine detail and the ability to produce larger prints or crop more aggressively. Of course whether you actually need that much resolution is another matter altogether, and will vary from photographer to photographer.

When Nikon released the full-frame D3 in 2007, it changed the professional photography industry. In this week's Throwback Thursday, Barney remembers a legend.
The Nikon Z7 is slated as a mirrorless equivalent to the D850, but it can't subject track with the same reliability as its DSLR counterpart. AF performance is otherwise good, except in low light where hunting can lead to missed shots.
Nikon's Coolpix P1000 has moved the zoom needle from 'absurd' to 'ludicrous,' with an equivalent focal length of 24-3000mm. So far, it's a fun camera to shoot with – if a bit over the top.
The Canon EOS R is the first full frame mirrorless camera to use the new RF mount. We're well underway putting it through our range of standard tests – take a look at how it compares to the competition and our thoughts on using it so far.
The GFX 50R is a 50MP rangefinder-style mirrorless camera. It borrows heavily from the existing 50S model but in a smaller body and at a lower price. How does it differ?
The Everyday Sling might just be the perfect pack for not carrying too much gear, combining comfort with Peak Design's signature modern style.
The instant camera market is heating up, and with four formats and 15+ cameras to choose from, we felt it was high time to examine them all and pick our favorite.
