  • Maybe this will work out for Adobe, but it won't get my continued patronage. I have never upgraded every 18 months because the updates aren't typically significant for the work I do, so a...

  • mook360, what do you feel is inherently more beautiful or different about these images compared to any other fisheye/ultra wideangle photos? The subject matter isn't particularly novel, nor is the...

  • In twenty-plus years of shooting, I've only suffered theft once–and it was by far because of my own carelessness. I don't need (or want) Nikon or Canon or any other manufacturer to protect me from...

  • Maybe ultimately he'll produce a set of strong images, but the ones currently on display warrant neither the expense of the setup nor the aggravation afflicted upon the subjects. I wonder if these...

  • Why in the world would I want to make full resolution images freely available to the public?

  • Smart pause is creepy. The only way that works is if the front facing camera is always leering at you, using facial recognition to know when you're not facing the screen. Who knows what...

  • Nearly double the cost of the outgoing lens? Fantasy pricing for this slow lens - unless, that is, build and optical quality are beyond reproach. We'll have to see.

  • Yikes on the price for this slow optic! IQ had better be beyond reproach across the zoom range for that price.

  • Commented on Nikon D7100 Hands-on Preview preview

    I wonder why they (rather unconvincingly) faked the "In Your Hand" photos rather than just take pictures of the camera in the hand? Think they didn't actually have a D7100 to preview?

  • Commented on Nikon D7100 Hands-on Preview preview

    Hard to know if Canon has been "served" without knowing the specification of the 60D replacement. But this certainly does eclipse the 60D in most respects. As it should, being three years newer.

  • Ha! This is why I keep my images on my own private web site, and share images with those I want to specifically via FTP. Anytime you put your photos–and other sensitive information, now that "the...

  • Ha! Blocked shadows, blown highlights and loss of significant subject detail–not to mention poor composition–do not "depth" make. Adding depth would ostensibly involve revealing more detail at the...

  • Ha! "HDR" is an acronym for "High Dynamic Range," which is actually what you started with (well, relative to the end result). What you've ended up with here is, more accurately, "LDR."

    Also,...

  • I'm mystified by the 18-35/3.5-4.5 – a focal length range that was exciting when introduced back in 2000 but today seems terribly pedestrian. And for the premium, and having to suffer the variable...

  • Commented on Hands-on with Nikon V2 article

    In this case, form follows function to a catastrophic end: The 1 system cameras, in general, are as homely as Nikon's DSLRs are generally handsome, and this V2 is the homeliest yet, looking like...

  • If the camera of my iPhone 4 didn't deliver images with a prominent green blob in the center, I might actually consider using it for all my casual photography. But, it does produce said central...

  • Commented on The iPad Workflow post

    Longtime Apple user here. The cost of an iPad, given it's usefulness/functionality (or lack thereof) is just silly. Which is why I don't own one and can't foresee doing so in the near future. And...

  • Commented on Sony09_10-18_DSC099 photo in dpreview review samples's photo gallery

    Distinct lack of textural detail thanks to heavy-handed noise reduction. I'd like to see what RAW conversions look like, because these JPEGs are far too artificial-looking for my taste.

  • Commented on Canon EOS 6D Hands-on Preview preview

    Only problem is you can't readily get specialist focusing screenings with transmissive LCD finders that are user-interchangeable–say, for instance, one designed for easy manual focusing. This is...
