Phil is not a jamoke half way around the world. He is a jamoke in my part of the world. Hrmp, those Americans.

I wonder just how much time Mr.Askey spends with each camera that he tests, and just how knowledgeable he really is. As for those here that rely on these tests - perhaps reports is a better word to use - and use these reports to further praise or criticize the cameras (per their own biases or inclinations), may I strongly suggest you get ahold of the camera(s) in question, use them a bit, and then make your own judgements rather than letting some jamoke half way around the world make up your mind for you.
