Save me guys, my sarcasm radar seems to be malfunctioning. Can someone help me make sense of the logic in this tread as if I'm 12?

There. Is. None.

Same as most click bate rumour driven sites, channels etc etc. There doesn't need to be, just so long as people keep clicking the ad revenue keeps coming in........

I laughed when he said that "it should be easy for Sony to make a high Megapixel 12fps camera because there's no mirror". I hope this guy realizes that there is a lot more to a 12fps camera than a moving mirror. In regards to his comments about high frame rate and high megapixel cameras...data throughput is the main consideration. If the internal processor can handle the data throughput then you can design a camera to those specs. At the moment no one (canon / Nikon / Sony) has a processor that can handle 75mp @ 5 fps, let alone 12fps. If Canon uses the Dual Digic 6+, they can squeeze 3.5 fps @ 75mp. Maybe in the next gen Dual Digic 7+ we could see 5.5 fps @ 75mp. But who would want that level of pixel density? Nikon certainly hasn't got the glass to resolve that kind of detail.

Tony Northrup definitely knows what he's talking about.

What makes you think that? Like most of us he talks a lot and some of it is right and a good chunk of it isn't.

Did you watch the D5, 1DX2, 5DSR, and D500 review? Anybody that makes a kick ass review like that knows a thing or two!

You're just a hater.

See! Just how could a $600 phone screen beat a $6000 camera's screen? Ridiculous. I trust Tony. He tells it like it is. How could Nikon and Canon let this happen?

Tony FTW!

I'm not sure if the S7 has a better screen than the S6, or the 1DXii has a worse screen than the 1DX, but my 1DX screen is much easier to view in direct sunlight than my S6.

Bullocks. You purposely took that photo with bad lighting on the phone compared to the camera's screen. Tony is right -- these cameras at these price points should have at least 5 inch displays with full touch functionality. Why would users want anything buy a large display these days on pro bodies?

Also, did you see in the review how both the Canon 1DX2 and Nikon D5 memory card doors are spring loaded?! Pfft. Again, lack of innovation and these giant companies are just copying off each other.
