Let's all talk about the iphone camera because it lets you shoot nice pictures:

And it's [url="http://www.flickr.com/cameras/"]one of the most popular[/url] cameras out there at the moment.

I know you like to poke and stir at times, but I do find jennben's posts at times a bit odd and "biased" to Nikon (even though he shoots Canon at the moment, I believe). He loves to point out that the D7000 has very low noise at base ISO (low noise in very dark shadows in particular), and he is right in pointing that out. But whenever something else very valid gets pointed out (in this case the better IQ when no quick and dirty NR has been applied to smudge the data) he finds not only the loss of detail important, but labels the whole discussion irrelevant/needless.



Lets try a nudge less stirring (even though I find your post in this instance very funny), and lets try to be a little bit more open to other voices (jennben).

It stirs well because the brew is thick ;D



In all honesty... if there's personal anguish caused by what's said in a forum, we're taking things too personally. I admit that I like to elevate the discussions (mainly from a technical perspective), but I'm more than happy if someone can correct me (e.g. the recent STF discussion).



The last thing anyone in their right mind would want to see in a forum is the sort of mutually-congratulating banter that goes on at... oh, I don't know... a Leica forum <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Hi there,



Unfortunately this is German only. Saw this one: [url="http://www.magnus.de/testbericht/nikon-d7000-rueckschritt-1036283.html"]http://www.magnus.de...tt-1036283.html[/url]

German magazin ColorFoto, recommends buying a Nikon D90 over the D7000, because of "noise". Looking what other sites say and show, I am just left scratching my head. E.g. a side-by-side shoot out of JPEG is available at the bottom of [url="http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Nikon_D7000/noise_JPEG.shtml"]http://www.cameralab...oise_JPEG.shtml[/url]



I am wondering whether this is another example of a lab test, which has little to do with what people perceive from the photos <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />. --- Just to make it clear: I am not referring to photozone testing here ---

Well, all I know is that I've just bought a D90 instead of a D7000. But not due to image quality issues. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
