Your just arguing nomenclature. The majority of people on this list can't afford the current MF/LF digital bodies/backs, without selling their soul & organs. So when someone refers to full frame digital, it's generally understood that they're talking 35mm full frame. Cheers, Dave On 1/3/07, Bronek Kozicki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > "they" = who?

"they" = who? Canon users or marketing? Then you are perfectly righ. But if "they" includes users of other systems, including medium format ones, then it becomes annoying. Pentax, opposite to Canon, is present in medium format market segment.

Hmm, I think you may have more of a Canon fixation than many here, I'm just glad that they are actually doing it, they simply provide the proof that delivering a 24x36mm (is that better?) sensor is both viable and desirable.

Instead of being cruel about Ken Rockwell, try reading his work. Nowhere also has the basic spec of the new Canon 7d. Not only can he review cameras he hasn't used, he can even do this for cameras which don't yet exist. 24 meg sensor, 3.1 frames per second continuous he informs us. What a guy!!

Listen to the new guy lecturing us. Interesting but we've been over this umpteen thousand times. Most of what you're saying is known to even the most technically obtuse on this list. Very good 35mm lenses work well on the Canon FF digital cameras. This is testified to by the number of Pentax and other manufacturers ultra wide lenses converted to EOS mount or used with an adapter by Canon shooters in spite of the obvious limitations imposed upon them by doing this. Your arguments are known. Your conclusions are suspect, and your mother dresses you funny. By the way welcome to the list.

Re: Fw: Full frame vs APS-C was: Re: PESO - Hertzlia Marina vs K10D
I am fond of APS-C but not despising FF. I am just satisfied with the current performance and compactness of gears of APS-C DSLR. And of course I have no intention whatsoever to bring out some $3,000 for essentially nothing more than just a camera. This might change if and when the cost/performance ratio becomes more convincing. BTW, this FF vs APS-C subject is a hot topic everywhere including of course Japan. What they call "blind test" is rampant. They exhibit images taken by various cameras including 5D (usually more than 5 images taken by different cameras) and see if anyone can tell the difference. This of course is more for an entertainment and no formal testing etc, and testing bases are not uniform, let alone they are all web images. For 5 or so games, no one so far could tell which was 5D images. This of course does not say anything about the performance of 5D (FF enthusiasts, don't get too excited about it. It's just a game :-). But it does tell some truth about the level of difference between APS-C and FF at the current state of the art in everyday shooting. And someone summarized their feeling by each brand "faction" Canon faction: I can't tell the difference from APS-C image even though I paid so much of my precious money. I have to cry. Sonyαfaction: Sony has lost credibility in manufacturing in recent years, so we will consider it AFTER they ever offer FF. Pentax faction: I can take excellent images without FF now. I do not need it. Nikon faction: Nikon tells us nothing, and why are we wasting time on FF fever? If you want 35mm FF, buy film cameras. So the debate continues.

Re: Fw: Full frame vs APS-C was: Re: PESO - Hertzlia Marina vs K10D
Hell, many Canon WA lenses, (all WA lenses on 35mm to some extent, but Canon has some of the worst, and most expensive), were problematic on film as far as vignetting was concerned. Why would they be "better" on Digital? I think that Leica partly picked the 1.3x crop Kodak sensor so their price would be merely astronomical not "US Federal Budget" sized.

Plenty if you'd care to look, and only a handful of examples with "vignetting" as a keyword. http://www.pbase.com/dreamndigital/vignette It's just not the problem it's made out to be in most normal shooting circumstances. This reminds me how some people whine that the SMCP-A50/1.2 is soft and vignettes, sure it vignettes a little but when it's really needed wide open then vignetting is likely the photographers last concern. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
