The Davinator

I dont think I have yet met a more ignorant, disrectful person on DPReview.  His constamt replies do nothing more than reinforce how ignorant he really is.

He never compared the D30 to MF...only 35mm.  He compared the D60 and 1Ds to MF.  The D30 article never mentioned MF

Wow...I have rarely encountered something so ignorant on DPReview....and considering some of the comments that appears, that sets the bar pretty low.  You obviously dont understand the artform.

A perfect example of why it would be welcome.  Comments like "needless hassle" and the like are simply silly.  Like asking someone why the paint insead of just taking a photo.  Why go through all ...

That is a D60 not a D30

I dont use a darkroom...but thats for stopping by. You dont get to pick and choose course jaterial in every class. True..partially. I am talking about what most now use...the hybrid workflow of ...

He didnt compare the D30 ro MF

It appears some of the threads were moved from Canon and other forums to the Open forum.

Very sad news. There were times I did not agree with the man, and he was always gracious in his response to posts. It was some of his comments on the old Canon D30 that swayed me into the digital...

The IQ180 is one of the top backs on the market...and has 80mp rez. The newest back are 100mp and would show little improvement in resolution. The "old" comment is a red herring on your part. As...

Predates high MP backs? The IQ180 is an 80mp back...and it was easily beaten by 4x5 and slaughtered by 8x10. Or are you thinking that the new 100mp back is a huge leap forward? No, current...

Sure. Here is one. It shows even 4x5 beating out the 80mp IQ180. And 8x10 simply destroys the 80mp back. Even doubling or tripling the MP would not equal 8x10. Like I said, A-Frame is wrong. ...

8x10 suprasses any current medium format digital back....even the 100mp models. You are mistaken.

Well, we can always hope they are reading this.

I own the XT1.  I've used it on vacations, for street work, weddings, engagement sessions, family portrait sessions, events, where I live and in Hawaii numerous times, California, Arizona, Japan, ...

EVF works just fine in bright sunlight.  And I can review shots in the EVF as well.  I dont wish for an OVF in that situation at all.

I could never go from the big EVF on Fuji gear to the tiny porthole of an OVF on a Nikon 5500.

Perfect. Thank you so much. Nice work! The higher iso b&w is actually very much like my film scans.  Love it

He used to.  Now he is still used a Nikon point and shoot.

8x10 sheet of Provia. Done.
