you listed, in order of making me smile
a) the camera's resolution
b) the sensor's size (and that it's BSI)
c) the len's aperture
d) the len's focal length

I can't remember ever seening a cell...

Should be wider, brighter, and sharper. Telephoto on this type of camera is nutsy. If you want a portrait camera you'll use something else anyway. 48mm can be covered with a 2x tele adapter from 24mm.

I think this piece, which they will certainly read, puts it rather bluntly. DPR pretty clearly says "your sensor itself is as good as any FF but it is held back to some degree by lossy raw RAW"....

I'm not going to comment on the representation of one kind of shot or another for camera evaluation but I have to say the compositions in this shoot are particularly nice. Some good shots in this...

Yeah, this SHOULD be true but in practice it's not. I'd love to hear some more discussion as to why. You would think center of the camera's dynamic range should be at the exposure point with as...

Again, ISO6400 is pretty high for an f2.8 lens with good stabilization. You're either talking about an exceedingly dark scene or some really fast action.

It's f2.8 so you're not going to need ISO6400 nearly as soon as you would on an APS-C DSLR with a superzoom lens. You shouldn't compare it to those cameras at ISO6400. More realistically you'll...

it's not a 35mm sensor. It's 36x24mm. Simplifying it to one dimension rather than WXH obscures the aspect ratio but if you assume people understand it's a 3:2 ratio sensor it's probably best to...

I hope something like the A6000 endures in the future. I don't want to have to deal with the size of full frame lenses for the marginal increase in capability they offer.

I agree. The D7200 at ISO6400 looks much more of a match for the GX8 at 3200. The new m43 sensor looks a full stop behind the best high-ISO non-FF camera on the market. Not surprising given it's size.

Contrast detect only but they have a system that determines relative focal position from out of focus areas based on knowing their own lenses. Only works on their lenses but does help.

Also,...

On the third slide there, would it be possible to extend the graphs showing essentially what would be a crop? The area of the sensor shrinks and the "reach" increases. Perhaps with a dotted line in...

The more iso invariant cameras become (which they are increasingly achieving), the dumber and dumber it is to refer to fstop without context of how wide a sensor the lens overs.

"Exposure" is a...

handholding 600mm equiv is crazy. At least let me steady it on my face.

such nonsense
