Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Sad to say that I have lenses that are sharper than me...what woman would want to pose in front of a lens that'll pick-up every hair, wrinkle, and pore? How many dpi do magazines print at? and heaven forbid, newspapers? Sure sharp can be good but aren't we just splitting hairs?

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Could this ever be the ultimate PENTAX ? :D The pic of the camera and lens was actually taken with a 750Z in Tiff mode.

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

John, thank you for letting me view your images, I can see you take your camera with you everywhere! I will have a longer look at the portfolio and give you feedback later this week if you so wish. I understand your perspective on the matter of image quality from the Pentax DS, that being it look...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

however my problem is that I am one of the 5% who requires big sharp prints for exhibition work. Sooo... what's the problem? Just use your 6x7 for exhibition prints... using your DS for such things is like trying to milk a chicken... or a cat... Use the right tool for the job.

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

I researched my equipment (including visiting this forum) BEFORE buying equipment. Made sure it would fit my needs..... "Not too sharp" would in my opinion describe a business person that drops a thousand bucks on a tool that won't do the job. "Not too sharp at all" aplies to the guy that after, ...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

You know what? That last post of mine was unduly harsh. When one is trying to be funny ANYTHING goes....but that was just mean. I apologize.

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

In response to the last two posts, firstly as I explained I do use the right tool for the job (my 67 or Sinar). Secondly rather than a riddle to suggest I take poor photographs and blame my equipment, I think the fact that I am very pleased with the results from my 5x4 or 10x8 would simply indicate ...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

I am annoyed that in order to do professional work using a DSLR I am forced to use Canon or Nikon because Pentax are comfortable accommodating the budget market. Why are you feeling the "need" to use digital in your professional work? If the 67 works and gets the job done to the quality you expect.....

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

I dont believe at all viewing distance is a factor unless your in the cinema where it is completely blurred if your up-close (due to the tiny film size). However with photography you can go right upclose to even the largest prints and feel the texture. For those of you that have visted Jeff Wall ...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Sue and I help to run ADAPS (Atherton & District Amateur Photographic Society) and full details of our location and programme can be found at www.adaps.org.uk The reference to viewing distance refers to prints. We view a 6" x 4" print relatively close, but to get the same effect on an A3 we ...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

The reason I need a change from my 67 is because digital is undeniably quicker and less problematic and in the past the only drawback has been quality. However after experimenting with the top Canon (Eos 1Ds MII) I regretfully admit the quality is slightly better than my 67. Likewise with a phase b...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Try borrowing one of the new Mamiyas at 22mp. That might do the job.

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

I though Phase One was up to 32 megapixels. The Canon has a lot of pixels, but they are small. Wait for the digital 645 or get a Mamaiya and a back. Larger sensors mean each photosite is larger, so the dynamic range and quality can be better. I find that six megapixels is plenty. Just a few y...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

You've totally changed your tune since your first post when you complained that Pentax DSLR cameras weren't as sharp as the competition. Now you say they don't compare with MF cameras, and of course they don't. They're not meant to. If you had been tuned into Earth news during the past twelve...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Funnily enough I do actually have a valve amplifier in Hi-fi and only use records because they sound loads better. And yes I have experimented with loads of brands of speaker cables because they do make a difference! :) I was in Jessops in New Oxford Street (the biggest Jessops) and in their w...

Time for a new DSLR sensor??

Funnily enough, only today I was reading an old interview with Ross Walker, son of Peter, the founder of Quad. He said he didn't try to cater to audiophiles because they weren't interested in perfection, they wanted something better. (Or words to that effect). Like you, I tend to like an aspe...
