Yeah.

Canon doesn't have this problem- anything they've released recently for full-frame outresolves their current 22MP sensor; they're shaming Nikon in this regard on a number of fronts.

If you're averaging the RAW data, it isn't RAW.

Way to go full retard.

Sorry, it's The Way of Things. X-Trans is great at increasing perceived sharpness and the noise pattern is very organic, but it's still manufactured on a modern CMOS process and it still uses a color filter array that throws away light. You can't expect it to keep up with full-frame sensors from Canon and Sony :).

Blame the internet- I didn't take it that way, or frame my response as such either :).

Can you?

It's not necessarily a pure exposure advantage, where the Fuji is getting about twice the light (one stop) more, but also a post-processing advantage. The real difference shows in Aperture or Lightroom, not in out-of-the-camera JPEGs.

You got the 'equivalent' framing part- meaning that you treat said 23mm lens on the smaller sensor the same as the 35mm lens on the larger sensor.

Because they want stuff like autofocus, and image stabilization, in addition to sharp optics :).

With a full-frame 35mm sensor, lenses can only get so small, particularly with faster apertures.

You're missing a couple points here- first, the native (FE) lens selection is certainly thin, the camera definitely can make full use of Sony, Minolta, and third-party Alpha-mount lenses through the use of Sony adapters, one of which includes a translucent mirror and AF module. And if you're truly desperate, all of…

Sure looks like ISO6400 at 1:1- check the full-size image!

That is all kinds of awesome- have to wonder if they could make a 'clean' fusion bomb this size?

Nikon (and Sony) win the base ISO dynamic range tests, and the resolution tests at 36MP, but those lenses, and that AF...

When self-defense situations are considered, you're not trying to 'kill' the assailant- you're trying to 'stop' them. This round is a bit brutal, but it does what every other type of deforming bullet does- it transfers as much energy as possible into the initial target as fast as it can. That's stopping power.

The bias IS strong with this article. Bullets like these are designed to stop* their target and fall into the same 'self-defense' category as hollow point bullets, which are also banned for use in war. Not that you'd want to use any type of fragmenting small-arms round on someone wearing so much as kevlar.

I'll take the Amber anytime- but I'm also a Shiner Bock fan.

Does no one drink Dos Equis? Seriously, served from a fresh tap into a large goblet, nothing's better!

Sure wish the controller on my 6D was that fast. Be nice to get full RAW video when the ML team gets that fixed up.
