Exactly. That was a "misstatement" better characterized as classic CEO arrogance. A better word is brain fart.

By definition.

"DPR Fauxtographer's Collective" <== hysterically accurate :-)

I tried the J1 for a while and really liked it. Up to 1600 ISO it is quite clean and has very pleasant RAW files. Typical of Nikon....

Well, the distance from the sensor to the rear element is very long in a standard F mount lens, so you need adapters for old school lenses to work on mirrorless bodies. Hence, the FT1 from Nikon....

Yeah, it's called a lease. And with a lease, you can dump the car, sublease the car or buy it out. Not so with Adobe. You can pay or not. If you say not, then all your files have to be processed...

That's an arrogantly obtuse response. The "amateurs" would like to use the suite too ... but at 50 bucks a month you gotta be kidding. And 20 bucks a month for one lousy app is robbery. Microsoft...

@VeryKross -- you need to adjust your math ... most of us think of it as 200 bucks for about 4 years ... and now it is going to be 960 for 4 years ... HUGE difference.

A little blind? They think they are Paul Maud'Dib .... but in fact they are just Mr Magoo ...

@VeryJross -- it is not only "really so bad" ... it is worse. You assume green field purchasing, when in reality a huge number of people are on a 1.5 to 3 year upgrade cycle (I am on 3 now as I use...

@markds -- The chaining of the users would be fine if the value prop was any good. I have been using Office 2003 and Office 2007 for a long, long time ... yet I still jumped at Office 2013 because...

@Stu 5 ... That's about 25 bucks a month, which is 2.5 times the cost for me when I upgrade every 18 months. But now I upgrade only every 36 months at most, so I pay about 6 bucks a month for...

I jumped at the new Office 2013 because for 10 bucks a month I get the whole enchilada on 5 computers. Adobe, on the other hand, want 20 bucks for one app and 50 if you want it all. Every ......

I notice that they mention compatibility with all single and dual optical path scopes but don;t mention that you only get to use one of the eyepieces, thus losing half the total light. Just...

I have the old 14-140 and it is very sharp. I also have the two power X zooms and they are a challenge, although they are very light and quite handy for video. And since the old 14-140 is not bad...

I am one of those who likes the feel of the G series in the hand. Reminds me a lot of Nikon dSLRs that I shot for some years. Ergonomics matter a lot to me and these two brands epitomize the best...

"Manual customization of video, or narrow DOF, are not anyone's "best friends" if you are shooting an event you can't orchestrate or double-take. One can get very good video with very simple kit....

"The lack of sensor upgrade over the G5 is a little disappointing but the GH2 sensor is very good except at the highest iso's."

While I agree with you, my G5 easily outshoots my GH2 in shadows in...

Wow ... the OM-D fan boys are on a roll :-)

Now that's a silly comment. Each to his own. While I think the OM-D is a nice cam and would like one one day to complement my Panasonic bodies, it will looks like something out of an Anime comic...
