It's already the 15th anniversary of the fabulous Nikon D3s 🎉

Nikon D3S (2009) by Marc Aubry, sur Flickr

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to compare several digital cameras.
For those who are interested, I present them here, in the hope that one or two will interest you.

In the meantime, we welcome your comments.

HAND.

Nikon went through a bad quality control phase at around the period of the D300 - D800. I had problems with the rubber focusing ring on the "pro grade" 17-55. In fact I took a holiday from Nikon for a few years. I have had no problems with the Z series, and Nikon Service in Italy were very good and honestly priced when I dropped my Nikon 24mm PC.

It's obviously also the 15th anniversary of the famous Canon EOS-1D Mark lV 🎉

It's one of the cameras with the most beautiful sound when triggered. 😎

どういう意味ですか？😏

You're not the only one who's lost patience 😉

It's already the 15th anniversary of the Olympus E-P1!

Olympus E-P1 (2009) by Marc Aubry, sur Flickr

Olympus' first micro 4/3, I've made four comparisons in recent years with this E-P1.

I compared it to the Lumix G1 and also to the GF1.

And for fun with the first 4/3, the Olympus E-1, and finally my superb Pentax 645D.

Bonjour Marc

I have a G1 so was interested in that comparison.

Here's the Tedograms of the house scene:

Lumix

Olympus

Both very, very good - almost equal FFT's with the Olympus very slightly better at near-Nyquist frequencies.

Your comparisons are perfect for this type of measurement because they are not resized and are of exactly the same scenes and settings!

The way you fixed it was AF - fine tune. The camera reported back a distance and the lens focused to that distance. Fine with film. Not so fine with 36 MP digital. You had to go through the process of calibrating your lenses to the camera AF. The end result was a calibration offset for the lens. Worked pretty well, although it took quite a bit of time. The exercise taught me that most lenses needed fine tuning. That's is not a problem with mirrorless.

Glad you like it 😉
