Focus consistency has been very good for me when testing with still life. Moving, it does decently well wide open - it doesn't track towards/away from camera movement as quickly as the Canon 85/1.8 ...

If you have time to shoot with a 150mm filter setup over the front of your lens, you have time to adjust your shot to deal with the flare that can become problematic with such a setup.   It's not ...

I have the 15-30 & 28-300 , and a 5DS.  They were both recently updated, and work fine in live view now.   I don't have an 80D to test them with though.

The 15-30 update I referred to was out within weeks of those cameras release so it likely won't take too long

Shipping to them will be on you, but just be aware the limitation will likely effect any new camera releases so you may as well , lest you have a useless lens someday (even if you send back the 80d)

Don't return your camera - tamron will likely release a firmware fix that you can send the lens in for.  The 15-30 misbehaved in LV on the 5ds/r and they released new firmware pretty quickly for it.

I, for one, take the technological one upping and business gamesmanship of consumer electronics companies very seriously and think it is not a topic for amusing or pleasant chatter at all.  For ...

If you have the time and are good at the PP necessary, you'll get even better final IQ if IQ is the primary motivating factor for choosing a higher DR sensor in the first place (which is what ...

They should conclude that 95% of people still don't care, and of the remaining 5%, 2.5% of them are using it to bring their landscape photos to life, and the other 2.5% are gear obsessed knuckleheads.

Well, we have some people savaging this one that savaged the Canons.

Then we have some who savaged the Canons defending this one using the same arguments people defended the Canon with. ...

" Probably as good or better then ANY Canon, up to this year."

Please bear in mind that is the camera that everyone...

The JPEG engine in the cameras, would not even come close to showing you the raw dynamic range that was available.

Bill already has the d5 posted @David It's for real

Not just not important but apparently technologically too difficult to do.

Not necessary for DPR to test, this data is already available for the D4/s vs D5

I don't really care about the DXO #'s (nor do I care about low ISO DR all that much either, no interest in landscape photography) - but regardless of how many stops it was, there was more detail...

Canon fanboys have been saying Nikon cooks their raws and that's why the low shadow noise is so low for years. If that were the case , the detail would be gone, and it's not. So it's not cooked...

1dx2 somehow not subject to this new technological limitation you have conjured up to excuse this on Nikons behalf after spending the last many years trashing Canon for it. A for effort.

This is the same excuse canon fanboys have been using for years. Stahp. Nikon went in a different direction here , that's all.

it also has minerals in it which corrode electronics
