  • Full Frame SLR comparisons

    With the arrival of all these new digital photo cameras with a large sensor (Full Frame) in 2008, like the Sony Alpha 900 or the Canon EOS 5D MkII, it became difficult to find your own path.

  • Noise comparison

    Digital noise, this eternal ennemy of the photographer, is going to find a real opponent at its level: The 35mm Full Frame sensors of the new FF dSLR that just arrived on the market (or were there for a relatively longer time): Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III Canon EOS 5D Canon EOS 5D MkII Nikon…

    With the arrival of new Single Lens Reflex cameras able to capture video sequencs (Canon 5D Mark II & Nikon D90), the limit is blurred between video and photo cameras.
