By Optical Correction, are you referring to lens distortion (aside from CA) correction?

Yes, it's a REAL RUMOR.

So, what will you bring the next time?

Assuming you did this Penang vacation with your family, or significant other, can you honestly say it was fun dragging all that weight around?

Bubo bubo (Eagle Owl), which is the world's largest owl species. Here are even bigger examples. The eagle owl is the largest owl species in the world, and has a six foot wingspan. When photographed on its own, the large size cannot be accurately gauged. The female eagle owl can weigh up...

Hi Jim, I'm particularly interested in all this, as I'm on the cusp of jumping from FX Nikon to something smaller and lighter. One of my favorite lenses on FX is my 17-35mm so I just know that I'll be looking at UWA on the NEX7 before long. Would the 5n be a better choice than the 7 for...

But chromaticity aside, I'm presuming that the sensors (say comparing the 5n and 7) are different enough that a particular lens may show extreme coloration on the 7, but not on the 5n. Make sense?

Jim (Kasson), I've just read your blog post NEX-7 — purple corner testing summary, and now understand it a little more. It's quite a bit more complex that most of us think and pretty much all lenses will impart some sort of coloration - even fine ones like the Summilux ASPH 50mm f/1.4...

Hi JM Kasson, thanks for the input. You seem (to me) to be saying that the lenses listed all impart some sort of color to the image. It's kinda technical, so could you simplify it for us a little? The more I read into this, the more I think I see magenta everywhere...

Why are we back on WTD 1301? It was WTD1302 last week. This week it should be: WTD 1303

Hi All, We've all read the reports of UWA's showing the magenta cast on the NEX7. Luminous Landscape, for one, has explained that this is primarily caused by the design of the lens, and not just the focal length. The article is Legacy Wide Angle Lenses A NEX-7 / NEX-5n Comparison...

At times like this, Google is your friend. Use it wisely. But if you're really too lazy to even do a simple search, then you can start with this review from Luminous Landscape. While not a review of the lens per se, it does pit the 24/1.8 Sonnar against the 24/1.4 Summilux ASPH.

My first suggestion is that you try a panorama, instead of your paranoma. ;p What do you mean by "few photos was being stack on one another". Is this the final image? Perhaps post a screenshot of PS10 in action.

Touching.... but Kodak is not filing for bankruptcy - and they are likely not dead. They are filing for bankruptcy protection from creditors. As our favorite camera pundit has said: Kodak will likely be back and, hopefully, better run.

There is no such camera as the Nikon N1. It is the Nikon 1 Series that you speak of. It currently has two models: the J1 and the V1.

It would be terrific if Panasonic implemented focus peaking, like Sony did.

A benefit of this is that it keeps greasy faces away from the LCD.

How true.

No, my 10D was sold years ago. I'm on an FX Nikon now. Profile/Signature edited for clarity. My apologies for the confusion.

Hi All, What about a non-ZF, Zeiss-labeled lens on an FX body? Something like the Distagon 2,8/28mm (made by Cosina and having a C/Y mount, and in no way designed for Nikon). This is the front of the lens, and this is the lens bayonet mount: Looking for a simple adapter, it seems that...
