The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Brightcolours - 05-25-2016 Quote:"Fad" is your verdict, BC - nobody else calls it fad, if an underexposed picture has some rescue (="save my ass, I never see that place again in this light") capacities. But of course, you just don't know how to take an underepxosed picture neither on purpose nor accidentally? ^_^I was talking about the odd shadow lifting fad, and you bend it into lifting exposure to save a messed up image? Not exactly the same thing, now is it. Again a whole lot of nonsense written about aliasing, you simple do not grasp the subject. You do not even understand what Nikon did with the D800E.

To be able in PP to produce an image so as to not have a featureless dark interior set against a blown out outside world may be recently possible,..... but it isn't a fad..... it's here to stay...not even the most perfect exposure could achieve it straight off the bat!

And bad photos always have been made and always will be made. Point taken The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - davidmanze - 05-26-2016 Almost perfectly wriggled Houdini, but not quite! B) The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Brightcolours - 05-26-2016 A few years ago someone gave the same argument of sunny outdoors and a dark indoor scene, with his example. Result: boring indoor scene not interesting to anyone (think family vacation albums boring) with the idea that outside is pretty overcast and strange because the contrasts do not work at all. Care to give your examples? The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - davidmanze - 05-26-2016 I'll have to dig some out but with shadows only lightly brought up in post....however DPreview's test shots using the D750 in an indoor aircraft hanger at Duxford are a better example than I could show. Although as the K3's PS didn't images impress, I get the impression I will be on hiding to nothing here! The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Brightcolours - 07-08-2016 It appears like Pentax still sucks a lot where AF is concerned. The K1 review by dpreview is out. The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Guest - 07-09-2016 I'm not sure which sucks more, the K-1's AF or the DPReview's "test" OTOH nobody should buy the K-1 primarily as a sports camera; but do I have to say that? The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Brightcolours - 07-09-2016 Pentax amde much ado about the new AF system, so it is good that they tested it. Sure, DPReview's tests of non-Sony and non-Nikon cameras always are a bit iffy. The Pentax FF K1 DSLR is out: Ephotozine Review! - Guest - 07-09-2016 Not so much ado - on the K-1's Features section, it's on page 5 of 6 http://www.ricoh-imaging.co.jp/english/products/k-1/feature/05.html They do try some marketing, but that's excusable. I think the consensus between users is that there's some improvement over the K-3II (I can't personally confirm this because I had no K-3 series cameras) It's an advanced camera launched at entry level prices, after all. It's launch price is lower than that of the 6D (in 2012) and D610 (2013). |
