RAVPower indicates that the present WiFiDisk should average about 1.8MB/sec depending upon the strength of the wifi link to the initiating application on the tablet.  A 50cm maximum distance...

I contacted RAVPower and they confirmed that the data transfer rate of the WiFiDisk is very slow - max R/W speed is 3/3.5MB/sec, sustained is substantially less than that.  They are working on a...

Oogh - that's pathetic...the SD card reader is barely making 500KB/sec.  Something sounds hosed.

One of the things I noticed about the RAVPower in its user manual, Ken, is that the SD card transfer speed is only 3MB/sec - the Wifi link is 72.  This means a 3-10 second per image transfer rate...

I'd say the RAVPower is the perfect thing for simple SD card backup as it derives all of its power from its internal battery or power supply; all the tablet does is initiate the transfer, then...

The actual fabber for the D3200 sensor may still be in question, but it's definitely not the sensor that went into the D5200/7100. It doesn't appear to be an EXMOR architecture sensor.

How does this help resolve camera - subject alignment problems?

In answer to my own question: AF microadjust is provided for the alpha mount lens adaptor, which includes its own PDAF module. If you're using E-mount lenses none is required. But it's not featured...

Why would a mirrorless camera need AF micro adjustment at all? There's no separate optical path for the focus module.

The D3200 uses a Sony manufactured sensor designed by Nikon. It also records RAW only in 12 bit mode, whereas the D5200 and D7100 record in 14 bit. As well as use a Toshiba sensor.

Unfortunately this is the problem trying to compose on an LCD in bright daylight...Phone screens are not designed to outshine the sun.  While there are hoods that will work on cameras, phones would...

Place a flat pocket mirror on the object and adjust the phone until the lens appears exactly centered. Then remove the mirror and take the picture. This trick works better for DSLRs on tripods, but...

Thanks - this does sound like an excellent solution without a lot of fiddling and plugging in.  The various wireless drives out there haven't impressed me as much, and the ability to grab an...

So Ken, as I understand it you're using the RAVPower device to effect the memory card to HDD link using the tablet as the initiator, but communications between the tablet and the HDD are done...

Someone on the D7100 forum has just reported something that looks like really minor amp glow at the bottom of the picture, but at ISO 25600, unknown exposure duration.
So that makes two sensor...

We agree more than my statements might imply. For most folks, and that would include myself in many situations, a more convenient to use and carry camera that takes good IQ pictures without a lot...

If speed is the reason that you want a new camera, then the D7100 is not the D400 that you are looking for. It is primarily for the single-shot photographer, though a lot of birders are doing very...

bob, this may sound like gobbledygook, but increased resolution pays benefits when rendering. Noise in the D7100 is quite well controlled at the pixel level. When you have lots of reasonably...

Amadou, thank you for correcting your comments. They now fairly reflect the samples and graph data, and show the D7100 remaining amongst if not at the top of its class. As _sem_ notes, there are...

The Noise page comments have been changed to reflect the data. The D7100 is actually no worse than its lower resolution competition, and in fact the only camera in the comparison that is better is...
