As far as I can tell medium format, ff has the advantage it can be blown up much bigger than crop without a loss of image quality but pixel for pixel the newer sensors are better. For example if you cropped a medium format sensor to aps-c size it wouldn't match a newer crop sensor on iq. Of...
Perhaps I should have said crop sensors, yes! Although truth be told I don't know how it all works as crop sensored cameras like pentax k5 and even nikon5100 get better dxo scores than ff cameras?
Nex 7 should be very special, a poor man's leica m9! It shares the new 24 mp Sony sensor with the a77, specs all over web. I doubt there is an slr out there, bar the a77 that will match the iq of the nex7 with decent glass but given its a rangefinder style camera it won't be suitable for slr...
There is an e mount 24mm zeiss prime will be officially announced next week and out in October. I would like one but prices expected to be $1000 so...
This is it pictured on the Sony NEX 7
The Pen 1 and 2 have the same sensor as the Pen 3 and are much cheaper, pen 1 can be bought for £199, they don't have as many features but far cheaper!
Its even better in the Pentax K5, ok fractionally better DXO score. I am wanting to get a DSLR body end of the year and this was on my list but Sonys new A77 24mp sensor may take this to an all new level!
Last shot is superb, in fact a really nice 'end of summer' style pic, first pic, too much hair in the girls eyes is distracting and shadow on face has lost the twinkle catchlights.
Hmm I wouldn't say hopeless, 3 more lenses are to be announced shortly and you can use any old manual lens you like via adapters without a 2x crop factor. Don't get me wrong I like M4/3rd native lens options but when Sony catches up (and it will given its started years behind) the argument for...
First shotbwould benefit from more sky and try it in black and white as there's not much colour there. Second shot, go lower to capture the reflections of the sky in the water pools and use rule of thirds for horizon.
