Not an answer to Nikon who still has not produced a full frame DSLR but
simply product cycle. It is announcing season you know. And Photokina is in a week or so. No one seems to wait for the show to start to do their announcing these days. For one thing I don't think the Japanese Companies care very much about a German trade show - they used to be the competition, but now German cameras are pretty much just stuff for the Rolex crowd. -- http://www.chapelhillnoir.com home of The Camera-ist's Manifesto The Improved Links Pages are at http://www.chapelhillnoir.com/links/mlinks00.html A sample chapter from "Haight-Ashbury" is at http://www.chapelhillnoir.com/writ/hait/hatitl.html "Deryck Lant" wrote in message ... http://www.dpreview.com/articles/canoneos1dsmkii/ Obviously the excitement created by Nikon had to be diverted a little before Photokina.

I'd say you're being a bit conservative. Can you say "Blows film away?" No,it doesn't come anywhere near blowing away a 6000 dpi drum scan of a Fuji Provia 100F slide or NPS negative. Nowhere remotely near. Could you show us such a scan? But I do accept that most applications don't need the quality of a 6000 dpi drum scan of a Fuji Provia 100F slide or NPS negative, and for those applications, the EOS 1Ds MkII does rival film. Yes, I'd really like to see the detail past 100 cycles per millimeter on that film. I really doubt that there is much. Looking at the Provia 100F data sheet, the MTF curve doesn't even extend to 100. It goes to about 59 cycles per millimeter, and it's about 20% at that point, heading down. Even with a perfect lens and camera, there can't be a lot at that spatial frequency. Especially in a natural scene. -- -Stephen H. Westin Any information or opinions in this message are mine: they do not represent the position of Cornell University or any of its sponsors. |
