Mert a Canon White Paper-ek nem kézikönyvek, hanem:

• Bla, bla, bla.

Szóval azért ennyire nem unalmas, sőt. Rendkívül részletes technikai háttér információt tudhattok meg a legújabb készülékekről (7D sajnos nincs még).

Csak az 1D Mark IV-ről 123 oldalas PDF-et találhattok, de van itt 5D Mark II és 50D is. Kattintsatok ide a PDF gyűjteményért.

ISO 1600 és ISO 12800 között és gyenge fényviszonyok között dobták arénába a két EOS testvért, itt találjátok a 100%-os cropokat.

Továbbra is hasonlítgatják össze a két testvért, a legújabb tesztet itt találjátok.

Hello, all.  So it seems I haven’t posted in some time, and today’s post might just a bit longer, because of this.

First things first, a week or so ago, I went to my family’s farm to take photos in the morning.  I had a lot of fun with this, and took some amazing shots.  My brother came along, and I have yet to see his shots.  I got up early (before dawn), but it was worth it.  We had a kind of brunch after the sun was up enough to the point where I could finish taking photos with the kind of light I wanted.  And now the next item at hand.

I heard via twitter (Canon’s account more precisely) that Canon announced the 1D Mark IV.  I’m excited about this camera, although I certainly wouldn’t be able to afford such a piece of equipment, especially on a college student’s budget.  Canon’s website lists the camera at about $5,000 USD.  The camera has dual Dig!c 4 processors, can record in HD video, 16 megapixels, an expanded ISO range of up to 102,400, etc.  Now, I think that ISO level is insane.  Then again, so is the 5D Mark II ISO range.  Although, if I had enough money for either, I would have trouble deciding between the two.  I don’t think I ever covered Canon’s announcement of the 7D, either.  I assume you all have read up on all the reactions and other talk on the 7D.

And now I’ll leave you all with something interesting I read somewhere on the web.  It read as such:

You can put a $10 camera in the hands of Ansel Adams, and get a better photograph than a $1000 camera in the hands of an amateur.

If you have an idea where I got this from, and who wrote it, post the link in the comments section below.  Thanks for reading.

Your photography friend, Andrew.

Újabb összecsapás a nagyobbak között, azonos helyszínen, azonos fényviszonyoknál, a résztvevők pedig:

A 100%-os crop összehasonlító képeket itt találhatjátok.

Earlier I didn’t know that Picture Style affects video picture quality (there was default Normal settings with sharpness 3 and contrast 0). But now I will shoot only with sharpness 0 choosing appropriate contrast value.

This sample images shows 1080p video picture with various sharpness and contrast settings (in Picture Style).

A Canon a mai napon bejelentette, hogy 2010-ben várható egy új firmware frissítés a Canon EOS 5D Mark II készülékhez, amely lehetővé fogja tenni 24 illetve 25 képkocka/másodperc sebességű felvételek készítését 1080p felbontásban.

London, 20 October 2009 – Canon today announces that it is currently developing a firmware update to the EOS 5D Mark II to enable the recording of high definition 1080p video at 24 and 25fps. The decision to develop new firmware to support these features has been taken following feedback received from cinematographers and photographers.

Introduced in September 2008, the multi award-winning EOS 5D Mark II was the first DSLR product to offer full frame 1080p HD video recording, opening up a multitude of new creative possibilities for photo journalists, news photographers and amateur filmmakers. Since then, Canon has continued to develop its groundbreaking EOS Movie functionality, firstly with the firmware update to the EOS 5D Mark II that enabled manual exposure control, and more recently by introducing a choice of video recording frame rates with the EOS 7D and EOS-1D Mark IV.

Canon currently expects the firmware update to be made available during the first half of 2010. An announcement regarding details of the update and its availability will be made closer to the release date.

A photozonenak köszönhetünk egy objektívről két tesztet is. Az új Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM L IS Macro obit vizsgálták meg Canon EOS 5D Mark II és Canon EOS 50D modelleken is.

A teszteket itt találhatjátok:

• EOS 5D Mark II + 100mm [Fullframe]
• EOS 50D + 100mm [APS-C]

Egy kép többet mond ezer szónál, szokták mondani. Nos a fenti képre ha rákattintotok, nagyméretben elárulja apró titkát, amely arra enged következtezni, hogy előbb-utóbb eljön a Canon EOS 5D Mark II újabb firmware frissítése.

BRIEF “Breaking” NEWS:

Along with calling Canon, this is a VERY GOOD chance to let Canon know about your improvements request related to Video on 5D Mark II.

- OFFICIAL Canon Survey – EOS Video related:

http://survey.cusa.canon.com/Pub/2wS26J/Link.html

CUSTOMERS IN REAL ACTION

A Community of Photographers, Videographers and Filmmakers interested on improvements for video and other features in the 5D Mark II are taking a simple but still effective action.

We are doing what many Canon representatives told to be the best way: we are calling Canon and asking to enter a “feature request” for the 5D Mark II. This is the best way to be sure it will reach higher departments.

You can join this very simple effort doing the same. It only takes 5 minutes to politely ask to register a feature request for your 5DMkII.  LOT of people already called, you won’t be the first, sorry about that

- Any doubt about it?: Please take a look at the comments pasted below, the answers given by Canon (you might be VERY surprised!!) and the links at the bottom of this post too. This IS HAPPENING and you can add your “2 cents”.

Acting as Community we will get results sooner or later. It was a key factor to get Manual Control on June, and now this will benefit everyone too.

Call Canon and ask to enter your Feature Request:

- USA: 1-800-828-4040
- CANADA: 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666)
- UK: 0844 369 0100
(see previous post for more European information)

FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS REQUEST

This is a reference list of what THOUSANDS of customers are requesting since months ago all around the world.

What we strongly REQUEST:

▪ Frame Rates as in 7D
29.97 / 25 / 23.976 fps: STANDARD 30/25/24p modes.

▪ 720p mode at 29.97 fps
It will allow LONGER video recording time before reaching the 4GB file size limit.

▪ Improve AF contrast detection algorithm and/or add Focusing Aids
Magic Lantern has done a lot on this, and proven it is extremely useful, even essential. See additional Filmmaking features.

▪ Digital Zoom Video mode
To record on video a smaller area of the sensor as “digital zoom”. Very useful.

▪ 1:1 Crop Sensor Video mode
To record a native 1920×1080 area of the sensor, which extremely minimizes “jello” effect and eliminates aliasing issues/artifacts. This is possible in a similar way how Zoom level x5 and x10 works, but recording on video what you see on screen. This function could be part of the above one.

▪ 720p mode at 59.94 and 50 fps (if hardware possible)

▪ File Spanning function
A new file is automatically created when 4GB is reached without stop recording.

▪ “EDIT” option in playback mode
This would allow Cut and Save part of recorded video clip. It is available on 7D and P&S cameras.

▪ More frames in Bracketing mode
For still photography. Very easy to fix.

▪ Auto ISO in Manual mode
For still photography, improved and with selectable limits.

▪ “REMAP” hot & stuck pixels function
This will save Canon Technical Support LOT of money and time. It is an essential feature. We still don’t understand why it wasn’t already implemented.

▪ Live Histogram for video mode

▪ Remote Start/Stop video recording using cable release (if hardware possible)

▪ Full HD through HDMI output while recording (if hardware possible)

▪ Dropped Frames Bug
FIX. This happens sometimes when changing Aperture AND in normal situations without changing anything

▪ Exposure shift / flashing
FIX. This happens sometimes when zooming

▪ Audio Manual Gain for video recording
Very easy to fix, and essential for acceptable audio recording.

LIST of additional FILMMAKING features

Hugely demanded and used (until now only via Magic Lantern)

▪ Control of focus
▪ Peaking, false-color and edge detection on LCD
▪ Focus Assistance
▪ Focus rack
▪ Focus stacking
▪ Zebra stripes (video peaking)
▪ Manual gain control (audio)
▪ On-screen audio meters

… and LOT more features that has already been proven to be possible (and VERY useful) by Magic Lantern Project.

They are helping thousands of users on filmmaking jobs, and Canon could do even a better implementation of them via Firmware update. That would be another BIG BANG to keep big sales on this great camera.

▪ Focus Assistance System / Focus Detection Area
It would tell (in LiveView mode, and in real time if possible) when a specific area of the frame is in focus or not. This feature would be very helpful and very much appreciated by filmmakers.

▪ Magic Lantern’s New Features Request:  Check them here, you will get very good and creative ideas on new features.

The importance of STANDARD frame rates

Until now the 5D Mark II has not even a single frame rate compatible with any other video camera made by Canon, 7D included !! That’s why we “AT LEAST” request the standard 29.97 fps.

CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCES

Just few! Including all comments in this post would be completely annoying. Write your own experience in the comment field!.

1 — “ I just called and spoke with a very friendly representative, and he said that calling in and registering this as a feature request with Canon was a great idea and it’s how manual control got in there.

So please, if you have a 5DmkII, take the five minutes and call in, it CAN make a difference. ”

2 — “ Just called – it was easy. I got a nice guy on the phone who let me know that they’ve had “quite a few” 5D Mark II owners calling up. He also said he was happy to take the call because he owns the camera, too, and would like to see a firmware update.

I asked what the chances were, and he said something to the effect that Canon hadn’t “made any announcements yet.”

That sounded especially promising. Make your call now, if you haven’t already done so.”

3 — “ I called. Very easy. Everyone else should do the same. The Canon rep asked for my name, address, email, and the serial number of my 5D. I inquired about 24p and other frame rates for the 5D. He mentioned the calls and customer complaints about the lack of manual control and the eventual firmware upgrade canon released. I would hope his mentioning of this would suggest a similar scenario for 24p.”

4 – “ I just did it too. I very politely told the lady who answered that “You may have heard this before but I heard about your new 7D and I want my 5D Mark 2 to support the same features as the cheaper camera…” and proceeded to POLITELY tell her all of the things we in this community have been looking for.

Her response was basically “Thank you for the input. I have heard this before many times. We really need this kind of input. It’s input like this from our customers that directly led to the release of the manual video settings firmware release.”

She further explained how each phone call we receive about it gets forwarded to management, a tech case is opened, etc. My conclusion is that they are listening and what we most need to do is make sure they hear us.

So everyone PLEASE follow suit and VERY POLITELY call, not email. A phone call shows much more sincerity on your part vs. an email that can be discarded in 2 seconds. I talked with customer support for 5 minutes while she jotted down our conversation to be put in the tech case.

It was VERY clear that the phone is ringing off the hook about this issue. What we want is for the tech support people to keep hearing our story. We want them to spend 30 minutes of every 60 minutes hearing how much better our lives would be if our beloved 5D had better video mode support and manual audio gain.

It’s like democracy folks. If you don’t vote, you have no case to complain. Let’s really let them know that dozens/hundreds/thousands of their owners really feel that these features are essential to their 5D.

The number is (800) 828-4040. And please don’t whine that “It won’t help”. Ultimately it could prove futile, but there is absolutely no downside to calling Canon and letting them know how much we are countng on their support. ”

5 — “ I called Canon again today and chose General Product Support instead of Tech Support. I stated that I was calling “to make a product feature request for my 5D Mark II”, and right away the support rep said that he was writing them down to send up to Canon. So again I gave him the things I wanted to see improved or added, and he agreed with everything, saying that they have heard them a number of times.

He was way more receptive than the gentleman yesterday. After I had finished, he said he was entering my requests into a “Customer Voice” request form that would be sent up the line and read by someone higher up.

So, it seems that a lot of people are calling in and making waves here. Someone is listening, and I am betting that a change(s) will be made in the near future.”

WELL DONE. Thanks a lot to all those who picked up the phone and DID act.

To ALL READERS: This is a Community effort that will benefit everyone.

ANY DOUBTS?

Please check Cinema5D forum and 5Dmk2 blog.

This is happening, this is REAL.

Your Call is IMPORTANT. This is the RIGHT and BEST TIME to call Canon.

The more customers calling Canon and politely requesting, the more chances we ALL have.

As many Canon representatives told: this is the BEST way to be sure that the requests reach higher departments.

Feel free to pass and spread this information.

We hope Canon consider all these features VERY seriously to be implemented via Firmware update, because they ARE possible in THIS CAMERA and they are VERY important for Filmmaking jobs (Nikon could do it before indeed…)

Last update: December 20, 2009

Ha lúd, legyen kövér – még egy összehasonlítás a mai napra, a résztvevők pedig:

• Canon EOS 7D
• Canon EOS 500D
• Canon EOS 5D Mark II

A versenyszámok pedig:

• ISO3200
• ISO6400
• ISO12800

ISO3200　　　　　　　　　ISO6400　　　　　　　　　　ISO12800

On September 1st, Canon has released EOS 7D. It uses Digic 4 (as 5D Mark II) but 2, and it even includes:

1920 x 1080 (29.97, 25, 23.976 fps)
1280 x 720 (59.94, 50 fps)
640 x 480 (59.94, 50 fps)

Canon even fixed the 30.00 fps to the standard 29.97… and also added 720p…

NOW WE SHOULD ASK CANON:

- Is that IMPOSSIBLE in 5D Mark II? (NO, according to press report, see below)
- What about THOUSANDS of requests from ALL ARDOUND THE WORLD for the 5D Mark II firmware update?
- Are you still “LISTENING TO CUSTOMERS”?  What is going on?

Make your VOICE HEARD

If you care about 23.976/25/29.97 and LOT of other possible fixes via Firmware Update you can call Canon and make your voice heard:

- USA: 1-800-828-4040  /  1-800-OK-CANON
- CANADA:  1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666)
- UK: 0844 369 0100
- List of European PRO Representatives:
http://cpn.canon-europe.com/content/contact_us/representatives.do

If you contact Canon: be RESPECTFUL and handle the right and solid arguments. For your reference, please read NEXT POST too.

- Ask to register a “Feature request” for the 5D Mark II and to be entered in the system and leveraged to higher departments.
Your call IS important. EVERY effort in the right way can help.

You can still sign the Petition to Canon Inc. wich includes many improvements that can be still implemented in the 5D Mark II (and mention it when you call, BUT keep in mind that calling Canon is MUCH more effective than *only* signing or complaining online)

FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS REQUEST

- UPDATE:
Articles, information and experiences links at: 5D Mark II Features Request

- What we strongly REQUEST:

• FIX “at least” the current non standard 30.00 fps to the standard 29.97 fps as in 7D
• Add these frame rates as in 7D: 29.97 / 25 / 23.976 fps (STANDARD 30,25 and 24p)
• Add 720p mode at 29.97 fps. It will allow LONGER video recording time before reaching the 4GB file size limit
• Improve AF contrast detection algorithm and/or ADD Focusing Aids (like Magic Lantern has done, and proven it is completely possible and extremelly useful). This is REALLY important and useful for video mode.
• Add “Digital Zoom” and “Crop Sensor Video Mode” (“Sensor Windowing” recording function) allowing to record native 1920×1080 sensor’s area wich extremelly minimizes or even avoid “jello” effect and aliasing issues/arctifacts. This is very possible in a similar way that Zoom level x5 and x10 works to help manual focus
• Add 720p mode at 59.94 fps if hardware possible
• Add File Spanning Function (a new file is created when 4GB is reached without stop recording)
• Allow Audio Manual Gain when recording video (so easy to fix…)
• Add EDIT option in playback mode, allowing Cut and Save part of recorded video clip
• Allow more frames in Bracketing mode (so easy fix…)
• Allow (working) Auto ISO in Manual mode (for still photography)
• FIX dropped frames bug that happens when aperture changes or in some other situations
• FIX exposure shift / flashing that often happens when zooming
• Add function to “Remap” hot and stuck pixels. This is VERY important, and will save Canon Tech Support LOT of money and time. It’s an essential feature (we still don’t understand why it wasn’t already implemented)

● Until now the 5D Mark II has not even a single frame rate compatible with any other video camera made by Canon, 7D included !! That’s why we “AT LEAST” request the standard 29.97 fps.

A SIMPLE EXAMPLE OF ACTION:

From other blog:

“Reader Eugenia commented (..) that she’d called Canon’s product feedback line and politely requested a choice of HD video frame rates on the 5D MarkII.”

If you care about 24p support on the 5D Mark II and would like to see it added in a future firmware update, PLEASE DO THE SAME.

Eugenia wrote:

“I called (800) 828-4040, for the US. I pressed then the 3rd option, and the guy was set up to take feedback immediately…”

She requested both 23.976 and 25 fps modes, as well as the standard 29.97 fps.

Please do call and make your voice heard. There are definitely enough of us who care about this to encourage Canon to take the decision.

** A BIT MORE OF INFORMATION **

According to a Press Conference Report in Japan, a single Digic 4 is capable of handling 24p and 60p:

http://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/20090901_312421.html

It also tells that Canon didn’t take a decision yet, regarding the 5D Mark II.

In that conference appears Dr. Masami Kawasaki, President and CEO Canon Marketing and Masaya Maeda Director and Chief Executive of Image Communication Products Operations

Questions & Answers

This is a WORLDWIDE effort to encourage Canon to improve what CAN be improved. It will benefit everyone, Canon included. After all, customers are EVERYTHING for a company. Without customers’ purchases and loyalty, the company wouldn’t survive.

Q: WHAT WOULD CANON GET improving the Firmware?
A: MORE SALES on an already designed camera wich is already in production and has been the best seller over 9 months, so no extra costs needed to keep the profit.

Q: Isn’t that a GREAT deal?
A: Of course!

Q: Would it keep Canon on TOP of DSLR market, also at good place in competition with RED?
A: Absolutely!

Q: How do we contact or let Canon know about what we need and request?
A: You can CALL Canon, it’s the best and fastest way. You can also contact Canon by online support and ask that your request be forwarded to the product manager. Be respectful, explain valid arguments and also what you think.

Read the previous post and the next post before contacting Canon.

A 7D megjelenése egyre valószínűbb, az új 1D pedig nem várható már idén csak 2010-ben, a sajtóbejelentés dátuma is fix:  2009 Szeptember 1, 9:00AM CET @ Stockholm, Svédország.

Canon EOS 7D

• Kettős DIGIC 4 processzor
• Beépített külső vakuvezérlés
• Full HD videofelvétel
• APS-C szenzor (1.6x Crop)
• Nem kihajtható LCD

3 új objektív

• Egy L-es makróobjektív fog megjelenni az új Hibrid Stabilizáló rendszerrel
• Még egy másik nem L-es objektív
• A harmadikat még homály fedi (70-200 f/2.8L IS II?)

Vízalatti videokamera

• Várhatunk egy vízálló videókamerát a Canontól

Közeledik a bejelentés napja, sokasodnak az információk, jelenleg így állunk:

Legalább 1 DSLR készülék bejelentése várható Szeptember 1/2-én (földrajzi helytől függően).

A specifikációk csak körvonalak, de az alábbi információk érkeztek:

• Az első prosumer dSLR készülék Dual DiGiC processzorral a Canontól
• Az első prosumer dSLR készülék kettős memóriakártya nyílással a Canontól
• A készülék NEM lesz fullframe-es, de a crop mértékéről nincs infó
• A videófunkciók felülmúlják az 5D Mark II-t
• Jobb AF az 50D és 5D Mark II-höz képest
• A képzajkezelés jobb, mint az 50D-ben, és viszonylag jobb, mint az 5D Mark II-ben
• Nagyon hasonló pixelsűrűség az 5D Mark II-höz

Új 1D
Az új 1D modell nem a fenti kamerával együtt lesz bejelentve.

Tehát “csak” a címben szereplő két készülékre várhatunk, a 7D (3D? 60D?) és a 2000D (T1) amikre mi tippelnénk.

Még mielőtt megjelenik a Canon új zászlóshajója, tisztességesen elbúcsúzunk a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III-től. Szuper kis teszt természetesen részletes, külső-belső értékek is össze vannak hasonlítva és mindennek a tetejébe még Ti is szavazhattok, hogy szerintetek melyik a jobb. Kattintsatok szépen ide vagy ide egyből az értékeléshez.

A legtöbb forrás továbbra is Szeptember 1-re jósolja az új 1D készülék bejelentését, viszont a francia RP szerint pedig már holnap, Augusztus 25.én jelentik be…holnap kiderül kinek volt igaza.

Specifikációk

Megint felbukkant egy várható specifikációs lista – ezúttal új forrástól, tehát 50-50 az esély, hogy a valóságot vagy csak egy kívánságlistát látunk.

• 16 megapixeles FullFrame szenzor
• DIGIC V (Dual) processzor
• 10fps sebesség
• 61AF Pont (kb 20 választható)
• 100%-os kereső
• 3″-os VGA LCD kijelző (Korábban OLED kijelzőről beszéltek, és a tesztkészülékekben is az volt állítólag)
• SD/CF memóriakártya helyek
• 1080p videofelvétel (24p, 25p, 30p)
• Új, könnyebb akkumulátor
• Ergonómiai változások (második Joystick típusú vezérlő)

Went to go out for a shoot this morning but this rain wont just stop lol .

Woke up had a look out side and didn’t look to bad outside so got dress packed up my gear and head out to check a local spot off my list . While driving I though we could be in for a nice sunrise and there was still lots of gaps in the clouds and not to much heavy clouds . got to my location and started setting up took a couple of test shots while waiting for sunrise and then the next thing you know the sky is gone completely dark grey its starts raining came out of nowhere and wasn’t going to let up . So packed up and head home with no shots this  is morning . Hoepfully will get a break in the weather soon .

Finished off editing a couple of shoots from Melbourne this morning though .

Went down to the old Pier in St Kilda was hoping for a colorfull sunset that eveing but got a grey cold windy one instead lol .

Did two versions of this image a color shot and a hi key black and white .  Cant really decide which I prefer .

Got back late last night from a night shift and though would go through some old RAW images . found this two image stitch of Thistle Cove I think lol , in the Cape La Grand National Park in Western Australia .

Just got back from Melbourne this week , went there for a short trip to visit some friends , some shopping , watch the egales play and the food . I also toke my camera along as well as was hoping to get some photography in while the wife was shopping . Unfortunately the weather and light was wasn’t great while we were over there but still went out most mornings and afternoons to see what I could get . Didn’t come away with many photos so the photography part was a bit of a let down however the food we had while we over there made up for it . I think while we were over there we ate out every night and most breakfast the food and customer service was great over there compared to Perth .

We even went to one of Geroge Calombaris (Judge from Master Chef Australia ) restaurants the Hellenic Republic http://www.hellenicrepublic.com.au/ for breakfast and would have to say it would have been one of the best breakfasts I had had in a long time .

Also went to a couple of restaurants in China town for dinner a few times one of them was the Longgrain Restaurant http://www.longrain.com/melb_INTRO.htm which is a modern Thia restaurant . The food there was amazing with lots of fresh herbs and spices used , the cocktails were also great .

One one of the days I took the tram down to St Kilda to try and get some shots of the old St Kilda Peir at sunset , there was a lot of grey over cast clouds hanging around that day and the weather was bloody freezing with wind . But I rugged up and though I would stick it out till for the sunset hoping there might be a break in the clouds to get some color in the sky unfortunately it just went from light to grey to dark , disappointed I started  head back into St Kilda to get something to eat and choose the elbowroom http://www.elbowroomstkilda.com/ must say the service there was exceptional ordered there house special of beef fajitas and would defiantly be eating there again next time I’m over there .  Perth restaurants could really learn a lot from Melbourne the food and service was just blew Perth standards away . Now will just have to work off all that food now I’m back in WA , hopefully heading down to Pemberton shortly so will defiantly work the food off will all the hiking down there .

The top image I took is of the Melbourne skyline just before sunrise on the first day I was there . Probably the best light I had all trip and it didn’t rain that day either . Was an 8 image stitch taken from near the Crown Casino .

I also noticed at night time they have these huge gas flames that come out along the river bank of Melbourne was amazed at they really did these fireball shows every night on the hour as must be a huge waste of gas . As we were staying right next to the Crown Casino decide to go down and get a few shots of these monstor fireballs going off . The below image was a 8 image stitch again taken around 10 pm .

Megérdemel egy külön posztot a hír, hogy a Canon EOS 1D mark IV biztos forrás szerint Szeptemberben mutatkozik be a nagyközönség előtt.

Októbertől lehet leadni a megrendeléseket korlátozott számban. A raktárak körülbelül a 2010-es vancouer-i olimpiai versenyek környékén telnek meg.

Az érzékelő marad APS-H méretű. A forrás hozzá tette, hogy “fotóriporterek és sportfotósok tömege támogatta az APS-H szenzort. Ha fullframe-es készülékre van szükséged tájkép és portré munkákhoz, a Canon kiváló készülékeket nyújt ezek pedig az 5D Mark II és az 1Ds Mark III.”

Egyelőre ennyi.

Sigma DP22

Elhanyagolt készülék lett szegény Sigma DP2, pedig a kompakt mezőnyben szépen dolgozik, de adtak neki még egy pofont, mivel az 5D Makr II-höz hasonlítgatták a PDN-nél. Link itt, értékelés lent.

Értékelés

Végezetül a a testesebb Canon 5D mark II-t jobb utitársnak találtam köszönhetően a kényelmes markolatának és általában gyors sebességének. Képminőség tekintetében amíg a Sigma DP2 csakúgy, mint a DP1 magasan a többi kompakt felett végez, összehasonlíthatatlan az 5D Mark II-vel.
