DXO is always right.... after all, they rate the 7D2 as superior to the 1DX in low light..... and the 50F1.8 is a much better lens than the 600F4.....

And the 500mm lenses get equal scores because of the higher DR of the Nikon camera used...

LOL
According to their test scores, d7200 has better DR than even Nikon d750. That should be the last straw.
Even Rishi (dpr admin) says, all this measured DR doesn't show up in photos. He thinks, Bill Clauff measurement of photographic DR is better.

You weren't joking about the Sony A7s .... That's it. DxO has officially and completely beclowned itself. Any respect for it's rating system I still had just went right down the crapper.

Of note, they're specifically ranking cameras in this scheme, not sensors.

Tihi

I also hear that the guys at Dx0 and Digital PReview have found that Sony and Nikon is far superior at action and event photography - they test both at the same time when they visit the local cow bingo. It's right up their a....lley.

I have a hard time picking the best thing DXO has published:

  • Canon's highest dynamic range sensor is a PowerShot
  • The 50 f/1.8 II is a better lens than the 600 f/4L IS II
  • The same Zeiss Otus lens on a D800 is outstanding while it is disappointing on a 5D3

And I'm sure we'll get more great insights from these guys soon. Can't wait!

I am amazed. However deserved it might be, you have kept this DxO bashing thread going for 5 full pages ... Amazing!

Why wouldn't it keep going until DxO stops saying stupid things? How many years have we been bashing KR?
The world is full of people, companies and organisations saying, printing and showing stupid things. When that´s the case, I just stop hear, read or view what they produce. The world is so full of things I wish I had time to explore. Wasting time on stupid things would give me even less time.

Come to think of it ... I just wasted a few minutes on this thread, which I think is a total waste of time ... ::)

When someone says stupid things, I point them out lest others are led astray.

Again, why does a big lens have to be better than a small lens?
Size has nothing to do with quality. Nor does money.
If the 50/1.8 II gave a perfect image but the 600/f4L IS II didn't, why can't the 50/1.8 II be considered as better? Just because you can't take it out in the rain? Or that it doesn't help you take bird pictures? Then again, the 600/f4L IS II is going to be rather useless at a wedding reception.

Everyone wants to think that because something costs a lot of money or is bigger that it must therefore be better. Not true.

What are you talking about exactly? does DXO rank lenses by usefulness? or by bokeh? or by user rating? isn't their ranking made by scientific testing? or is a lens that has a big aperture a better lens by default? why are you making excuses for a behavior that has no logic?

If the 50/1.8 II gave a perfect image, so you should exorcise this lens copy as this is possessed by the devil.
If a Canon 600mm F4 has worst image than the nifty fifty, you must submit to fix it immediately.
