Is Canon now two generations behind Nikon?

[JohnDizzo15]

Pretty sure Nikon will have released at least 18 more bodies at the rate they're going before Canon releases an update to their lines. So they are much more than just 2 generations behind ;D

 

[LetTheRightLensIn]

They are looking at sensel SNR (which naturally involves the entire chain to the RAW file being written) and "predicting" DR from that. Don't know how else to tell you the sky is blue.

Well, at least you believe that the sky looks blue on a normal, cloudless day during the daytime in summer.

Why has this made it to page 30?

Because there is an extremely high correlation between Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and frequency of internet postings.

Take some OCD, coupled with a matter of life and death, plus a lack of humour.... throw in some raging testosterone and keep the whole mixture simmering over a troll baited flame.... Add DR for seasoning.... and you get enough posts to choke the server.

And of those 3,084 posts, 3,083 have been cheerful, humorous, positive, constructive and/or peace-making. I'd say 3,084 were that way, but hey -- nobody's perfect.

I was going to ask Mitch if he is experiencing Deja Moo... (The feeling that you have seen this bull before)

Neuroanatomist: just a few posts, really.

Also missing is the serious fact that Nikon's flash system is a lot nicer.

Yep, there's an unbiased guy who really knows what he's talking about. To be fair, the 600EX-RT has only been out for a couple years, so maybe he's just not keeping up.

Besides, just dodge and burn in post. Make use of that sony DR rather than mucking around with off camera lighting.

 

[3kramd5]

It's problematic with the A7 due to camera shake from the shutter. It lacks an electronic first curtain, and long focal lengths exacerbate the problem for obvious reasons.

The A7 does have EFC

It does? Weird. I got the A7R for resolution plain and simple; I figured the non-R was much the same, but it wasn't on my radar.

sorry, but dodging and burning just won't give you the same effect as well positioned lighting

I can't, I am on a self imposed exile for a week or so. But, intriguingly enough, I have a friend coming to stay who has a D800 (shame it isn't an 810 or E though) and a 24-70 so I am hoping to do some comparison images for my own piece of mind.

Good read to pass time... I wonder if the forum will eventually put a limit on how many levels you can quote, or run out of memory and crash...

Or we should just keep doing this until Canon comes with a sensor that has at least 16 stops of DR... oops I said it again.

Probably not—that's all just handled with CSS in your browser—but eventually it will probably get to the point where the innermost quoted message is only one character wide.
