How long before DSLRs become extinct?
[quote:3496ace15f="johnriley"]DSLRs won't die for a very long time. They are needed for a variety of professional work that an EVF or screen are just not suitable for. After all, we can still buy folding cameras, rangefinder cameras, large format cameras....it takes a very long time indeed for a ...

How long before DSLRs become extinct?
dSLR's will fade from the mainstream within a decade, just as film SLR's were swept away a decade ago. SLR is also still here, the design is hardly changed only we now use a sensor instead of film. if we go to EVIL the whole design of the camera will change including the lenses, it's a different st...

How long before DSLRs become extinct?
Thank you kind sir :oops: :D. Actually nearly all of them were taken with the 17-70. The 60-250 just went along for the ride :wink:. I use my 18-250 when travelling, it's supposed to keep the dust off the sensor.. ...doesn't work though. Where DSLRs win out is in IQ, when bridge cameras, ...

I hope Pentax brings an aps-c sized sensor in a Q styled body... as long as they keep the kmount, i would not care if it was a little thicker than other competitors models. speaking of Q, you gotta see this::lol:

How long before DSLRs become extinct?
There´s very, very little in the way, technology-wise, of getting rid of DSLRs and replacing them with mirrorless cameras. The biggest problem is that C & N have far too much invested in their current systems to want to change to a new one. The lens line-ups are massive, and all designed for DSLRs...

Development costs would rapidly be paid off by savings in exactly-manufactured & expensive mirror-boxes & penta-mirrors / -prisms. AF problems would be a thing of the past. But the EVF also cost money. Also to use the camera you must use a LCD screen and that means the sensor is also on and the pr...

I dare ask... would you be shooting with Pentax or Nikon or Canon d-slrs at all if the Panasonic g series Evil had an aps-c or ff 35mm sensor?:roll:

How long before DSLRs become extinct?
I basically agree with Hefty. DSLRs won't last much longer IMO. Another 20 years maybe. By then every mobile phone will have some incredible video camera in it, where every single frame will be better than current dslr IQ. They'll have tiny liquid lenses which reshape themselves to change focal leng...

1/2 or 1/3 EV stops?
I use 1/3 stops because all other settings work with that as well or can je set the shutterspeed and aperture to 1/2 steps? For the ISO, i've also heard the sensor doens't go past ISO1600 or ISO3200 so there is nothing to gain when using ISO6400, it's just a processed ISO3200 (or 1600) photo.

Focus after you take the shot
Just to add, this works by using a modified microlens array in front of the sensor. The thesis PDF shows them hacking an MF digital camera. The 'raw' output is decidedly odd, but the software analyses the sensor data to reconstitute a 'proper' image given your required focus point and range. T...

Focus after you take the shot
I think the way data is collected off this sensor yeilds a lower resolution image than other sensors of the same size.... I suspect this camera will be enjoyed by news photographers and amateurs..... so I see many uses in robotics and machine vision, as well as surveilence but limited use for serio...

AEL
I have had my K5 for a while now (second one sensor stain). I feel comfortable using it in aperture and shutter priority and have also used manual mode a bit. Can those "in the know" explain the benefits and practical use of the AEL button. I think I understand how it works- I know it is good for pa...

Bridge Cameras
Having gone through point and shoot, to a Minolta A200 and a Canon G9 before ending up with Pentax DSLRs I'd say all had mertis but none match a modern and compact DSLR. If Pentax did an equivalent of the Canon G series I'd consider it but the tiny sensor high zoom models that are often referred ...

I have photos I've kept from a Kodak Easyshare in early days of digital that I'm still proud of despite the limitations of the medium back then. I've also many photos i know I culd have taken much better with the fantastic Pentax kit I am lucky enough to own today. My wife took some great phot...
