YABR - (Yeat another biased review)
... and the Nikon adulation on this site continues unabated...

The 600 is better - more focal length and nicer background blur. The reason for choosing the 500 will be weight (believe me the 600 is a monster to handle) and size - if you want to fly with your ...

Does this mean we can look forward to the review of the Canon 1d Mark iii any time soon?
(If you remember when DPReview used to have reviews within a month of a camera's release, you must be very...

Open your eyes....

Simple but effective :-)

I Downloaded the raw files from dpreview and basically found: 1. I can sharpen the 5ds files to have the same level of detail as 5dsr (about 20-30% more sharpening did the trick for me) 2. Moire is ...

First, thanks to Phil Geusebroek for the discussion and links. I would like to download raw files from each and test in my own workflow which camera gives me better results - hopefully there are ...

" but let's face it, the 1DXII isn't anywhere near the specs of the Nikon D5,"
LOL What a ridiculous statement. Define 'Not anywhere near' Have you even EVER used one of these pro cameras - I doubt...

Short lenses (probably 24-70). Look for Canon shape - very obvious. Also long lenses are put away - Obviously close-up after game session.

Hi John I have made a simillar move - moving from 1dii to 7d and 6d. Found it VERY difficult to get used to the form factor - the 1d shape is addictive :-). Now have 1div,1dx and use the 6d as ...

Canon was regarded as 'the' speed machine back in the EOS1 film days when they changed to EF mount and had 'blistering' fast and silent AF motors in the lens (compared to the other's screwdriver ...

We all know the Canon sensor is slghtly behind in DR - no news there. But coupled with Canon's recent spate of AMAZING lenses, this camera and matching lenses will make an indispensable kit for ...

Hugely biased, full of themselves with LOTS to comment on the state of every brand out there; unfortunately with very little real experience of what cameras were actually designed for : creating ...

Not bad... But not much better than most of the imagery coming out of Africa of late

The colour difference between these cameras will be borne out with subtle tones like skin colour or pastels on properly calibrated monitors and print; not in brightly, primary coloured subjects ...

Actually I was talking about raw. Most tests seems to indicate Nikon eeks out a bit more performance from the Sony sensor than Sony themselves. Most of the 'innovations' people brag about does ...

If size is your main criteria and you don't mind the limited lens lineup, you are probably right. But on your first picture you can already see there is not much difference between the sizes once ...

I've asked this question before, but nobody seem to have a proper answer.... You can get a Nikon with the SAME sensor but better image quality (processing), better features and a WAY better lens, ...

If something as simple as a black AF point colouring bothers you. Oil and particles are non issues - just pick one up and shoot with it and you'll see what I mean - it's like getting into and ...
