Right. The next announcement should be A7III, not A7SIII.

Even 1 inch is not that small lol

If the patents they're filling is an indication, they will certainly go the Dual Pixel way. The big question is if they let it work with EF lenses. I think it will, with or without Nikon's help. BTW, that clock frame is lovely. Applied a quick effect in Snapseed and became even lovelier :-)

In reality your eye is way more precise that any peaking algorithm.

Maybe it didn't happen because nobody wants to use their mount.

If Samsung could see the potential

Even $100 million is huge for marketing.. what they do with that money? There should be more efficient ways to promote a movie like that. Maybe it doesn't matter.

Nikon flagship cycle is 2 years, next is D5S. If it didn't come till February 2018 consider it Delayed. They announced D5 at CES 2016, with a pre-announcement two months before that. Its more than barely a year and half old.

1DXII is $3000 more expensive. You should compare that with D5, which its replacement will come in the first half of 2018, if not sooner.

1/125th was the rated speed for many entry level crop DSLRS. And Sony did it on full frame, with not latest and greatest DRAM tech. Give it a couple of years to catch up Samsung, and we get to 1/300. Transistors in your smartphone CPU/RAM/NAND are much smaller than the ones sitting behind A9 pixels.

Calibrated displays all look the same. They should. But TV makers want to differentiate their latest offerings, they want to prove the image they produce is livlier, more eye catching than competition's image. They should put all these "competitive" enhancements in Dynamic/Gaming/Sport profile, so when you go Standard all of them become disabled. Their current Standard means "not standard at all".

We don't need global shutter anymore. When Sony switch to smaller node (16nm?) and bigger DRAM, the scan speed will reach to mechanical shutter. Even Nikon's upcoming mirrorless DX camera is rumored ditching the mechanical shutter.

How many DR stop remain at that ISO? 1.5?

Proven by who? Where is the source? And.. I'm sure bean counters in big corporations know better where profit comes from than some random Gender Studies professors. I don't believe Apple hire males because they are male! Its Apple you're talking about.. a completely liberal company.

ISO 25600 part is unreal. Its like one or at least half stop better than A7R2, while sensor's actual S/N ratio is a bit higher in A7R2. Nikon has a better temporal noise reduction engine? Didn't expect that really.

in DPR forum I know only 3 or 4 female active users (one of them has the most accurate knowledge about optics), and its the most popular photography website! virtu signaling about equality and diversity solves nothing, they can add few females photogs next time and survive the PR disasters. That's what companies are doing, even in the west. Apple ad contents look super inclusive, liberal and cover almost any minority in the American society, but their work space is noticeably male dominated. No, Apple is not sexist, they hire whoever they think is capable of increasing their profit, it's not their fault that many of them are still male, but they advertise in a way you think reality has changed dramatically! I don't want corporations fool me about social issues. I want higher "real" engagement from women in photography community, and I don't think women necessarily need a woman to tell them they can engage more.

f/4 on 1" is very close to f/1.9 on smartphone sensor. They could make a Red Hydrogen rival instead of this.

I really don't understand how cheap external recorders manage to give us Prores options and camera makers can't! Is there some kind of embargo for still cameras or for video cameras with prices lower than certain level?

Nikon never intended to compete in video market, so any "first" or "fast" video feature they introduced was basically fruit of strong relationship they had/have with best sensor makers of the world.

I've seen many wedding shooters who prefer shooting 1080p, and guess why? They say the size of 4k files are huge! And Nikon bitrate is only 144Mbit/s! And you say 500 is ok? We're a very small minority.

video IBIS in DSLR would be great but when you want it is exactly when you need AF, and they don't want to add PDAF to their DSLRS (degrades image quality that they always brag about). Nikkor lenses are not video friendly. far from it. Expeed design is too old for modern video features. there are so many connected things that need to be fixed, and its too late.

Its even 25g heavier ?

I don't know what they will do with D5600 replacement but they won't release entry level DSLR anytime soon. The next big thing is mirrorless in first half of 2018. By the way, it should be embarrassing for Canon that the first DSLR with focus peaking is from Nikon known for its irrelevancy in video market.

I use Vimeo, but its also in virtu signaling business, they even created a category for Resistance! This war is already shaping the environment for content makers. You can't pretend nothing is happening.

A little simple device the whole Japan camera industry couldn't make
