Canon 5D 4 & 1DX II @ Photokina?

Who cares? Every thread will be hijacked by people telling us our cameras are crap, even if we are happy with them they will try and tell us why we shouldn't be, even when we tell them we understand their point, and it is valid, they will still go on and on and on and on..........

serenity now!

I try, I truthfully try, but it is like a car accident, you really don't want to look as you drive by but for some morbid reason you can't stop yourself. Now they are saying you can't print a Canon file from any camera above 13" x 19", they honestly believe there is a 36% deficiency in Canon sensors, though how you can quantify that to 36% is a mystery, they are crazy, truthfully crazy. Don't they realise they sound like the crazy guy in the parking lot at the mall?

I think I am not going to log in for a few days.

Can't go larger than 13x19? DARN!!!!
I just stitched together a panorama from vacation, 167,643 by 51162 pixels and all for nothing!

(note that at 300dpi that comes to 46.6 feet by 14.2 feet)

You must have been shooting with a D810. ;D

Photokina is right around the corner. Nothing on 5D 4 and 1DX II? No rumors, nothing... ::)

September announcements are for products for Christmas - user cameras/accessories. Pro bodies should be expected before major event - like fishing championship ;D

Ice fishing is big in Canada.... (and to all you people in warm climates there is a very good reason why go out fishing in the winter.... the beer stays cold)... so for us availability at Christmas and availability before ice fishing tournaments is one and the same....

Had the same analogy in my mind and thought to write it down here but my english isn't good enough to describe that in one sentence ... like you did!

I LOOKED from time to time into the fight discussion but stayed away from discussing with some of the guys. And created a personal web page/blog with some galleries. To fill the galleries I had to check my highly entropic photo collections on hard disk for good enough photos. I found a lot of crap but some pearls or at least well made photos. It was fun to check photos and think about reasons what is wrong with them, editing them slightly ... a good trip to the darkroom part of our hobby/passion/profession.

Best - Michael

I suppose I could say the same for you, unless you are exhibiting a very dry sense of humor. You might not have responded to PBD's comment and contributed to this very insightful thread ;)

Dylan, you already ready to move on from your 5DIII and 1D X? I suggest you think about that 200/2 instead, which has almost no upgrade possibility. After all your 85/1.2 portraits, I can only imagine what that bad boy will bring to the table ;)

well the d(r)amage was done already.., but maybe some will learn for the future?

ps: my humor is dry as the gobi.

Do we need something else..? Look at this pano taken with 1Dx and a 600/4
3000 frames over several days of shooting :)
My 5Diii is a bit slow compared to my 7D (fps) but otherwise a fantastic camera!
THe 7DII will probably solve most of this losses?

If the 5D4 doesn't have 25 stops of noise free DR...GAME OVER MAN. GAME. OVER.

BRB...have to tear up all my 17x22" portfolios ;D

I know a lunar landing conspiracy theorist who is more reasonable.
