Sony DSC R1 vs. Samsung Digimax Pro 815
I heard many times on this newsgroup and other forums about a
"superior" Sony R1 camera, and was lusting for it for sometime because of its good big lens, swivable LCD screen and "semi-professional" functionalities. Only recently I learnt that there was another camera of a similar class which had a much better specification (15x zoom vs 5x zoom), huge hi-res LCD screen, and heaps of professional-level photographic controls. One of the reviewers said that it seemed like the Koreans took the specifications of a "bridge" camera and exaggeratingly improved it in every dimension. I must confess that I am mostly impressed by the cameras with the "exaggerated" functionalities. I wonder why nobody here talked about Samsung Pro815 ? I could've learnt about it earlier. The only problem seems to me is that Samsung Pro815 has a 2/3" CCD sensor, while Sony R1 has an APS-C sized sensor (just like the dSLRs), and by the moment I realised that I am most interested in a camera with a high dynamic range and high (low-noise) sensitivity which comes only with a n APS-C sized sensor. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sonydscr1/ http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/samsungpro815/ |
