To answer this question specifically- that shit is hard to get right. Most of the time workers are primarily concerned about keeping up with the volume of work, getting everything where it’s supposed to go, and not getting hurt in the process.

And note that putting ‘fragile’ on the side of a box doesn’t make it…

And this is still the case for UPS facilities around the world, large and small- manual sorting at various stages to get packages that come from literally anywhere in the world to their proper (next) destination on their way to their final destination.

Spent plenty of time doing this at DFW Airport, where we averaged…

Those are out there (DPReview has a good studio comparison up). It seems that at worst, at high-ISOs and low-light, it’s no worse than the 5D III/6D/1D X when down-sampled to their resolution, which means that under great conditions it will perform significantly better, and under not so great conditions it will still…

DPReview used an 85/1.8 USM; a little CA in the corners, but the detail was all there once stopped down a bit. Also saw a shot with the 50/1.8 II at f/5.6- plenty of detail, almost to the corners.

It’s not as bad as most people think.

Love the overhead shots with the kids!

Islam had one reformation already- that's the Salafists, which Osama bin Laden belonged to.

ISIS *is* fundamentalist Islam, i.e., strictly trying to follow the ways of the Prophet; a fundamentalist Christian might talk to you about Christianity and leave it up to you- which is what Jesus did.

By the time the next Xbox comes around, Microsoft will have changed direction at least a half dozen times...

Look, I found another lazy socialist!

Double the framerate, double the shutter speed, keep the film sensitivity (or ISO/ASA) the same, double the lighting... basic principle of exposure :).

Come on Mike- Canon produces the 17-55/2.8 IS for EF, while Sigma and Tamron both produce similar stabilized versions for EF and Nikon F. And Tamron produces a stabilized 24-70/2.8 VC for those mounts too :).

The Tamron without VC is decent; the version with VC is not. The Nikon is incredibly dated, heavy, large, and expensive. The Canon is decent, as is the Sony, except for the Sony's pronounced lateral CA.

Mike, I'd consider not having OIS and being rather large and heavy as drawbacks- especially given that many people are moving to mirrorless for the sake of size and weight reduction.

The A77 is a mid-range DSLT, *which has a mirror*, and as such is larger than the largest mirrorless Fuji's to which this lens will be attached. Sony doesn't have an f/2.8 or faster standard zoom for their mirrorless lineup, for full-frame or for APS-C.

No one seemed to catch that a 16MP display isn't 8k, but rather something closer to 5.5k. 4k is 8.3MP, and 8k is 4* that- so 33.2MP, assuming both are in the consumer 16:9 aspect ratio.

Oh, I get all the obvious answers- and the obvious sarcastic answers :)

No comment as to *why* the gun software won't be available?

You can get better results with the A7S- and if you're willing to put a whole system together, and deal with the 'flexibility' involved with using stacks of adapters to make up for what the full-frame E-mount system lacks.

Mike, did you run into the shakiness some have seen in video sequences with the IBIS turned on? Example:

I've found out through live experimentation that I can operate a DSLR in manual mode beyond the point that I'm able to stand...
