They lost me at the line where they said:
"Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM (equivalent to a 40mm f/2.8)"
(followed by many other lines of similar, ahem, data).

40/2.8 on FF is _NOT_ the equivalent of...

They really should know better. 40/2.8 on...

Lbr0805: Future compatibility is something "someone" should have thought of when it _chose_ to make its creations using a proprietary, closed format. That was that "someone"'s choice, and it has...

Not strange at all.
1) An f/1.8 lens gets the same light intensity on all sensor sizes. This is obvious, because the same f/1.8 lens will be equally bright regardless of whether you put it in front...

Suggestions to DPreview:
1) You really should add sensor size on the highlight features of every camera (in mm x mm). And put it first, or at least amont the megapixel line. I my opinion sensor...

cyberstudio: They didn't say "aperture increased from 1.4 to 1.0", which would have been be fine. But saying that the F-NUMBER increased from 1.4 to 1.0 is incorrect. The number 1.4 cannot increase...

Hello Scott,

wow - while I now can clearly see it after checking, I had never noticed that filtering option before. Thank you for the info, it's pretty much exactly what I asked for. Thanks!

Yes. Equivalent aperture is very useful, because at the end of the day it also tells the _total amount of light_ that the lens-sensor combination is capable of receiving.

Example: A sensor with a...

Just a suggestion:
Would it be possible for DPReview to create two separate front pages, with separate URLs. One with only reviews and camera news, the stuff that DPReview used to be about. And...

For what it's worth, I'm completely OK with Nikon gold ringing all lenses that cost over 1400 €.

First: The 5D3 obviously is not priced too high if people buy it anyway.
Second: With its very high price, the new 24-70 obviously is going to be something else than "decent".

First: The 5D3 obviously is not priced too high if people buy it anyway. I won't at least for now, because I'm on a lens update cycle, but many other will.

Couscous: Yes, 60i means 60 INTERLACED fields per second, and 1080p means 1080 PROGRESSIVE vertical resolution. Can't be both progressive and interlaced at the same time. Nevertheless, the...

Uhm, "1080p/60i"? This is a contradiction. Video cannot be progressive (p) and interlaced (i) at the same time.

"A decent wide angle was around 30mm and by the time you hit 24mm you were talking fish-eye."

Than, I'm afraid, you were talking wrong. A fish-eye is a fish-eye, and a rectilinear lens is a...
