From: RichA on 21 Apr 2010 23:39 Canon. Will they release a compact non-mirrored, interchangeable lens camera? Nikon. Will they release a compact non-mirrored camera and/or an , high megapixel FF camera that doesn't cost $8000? Olympus. Will they dump DSLRs? Pentax. Will they release a FF camera, will they survive? Sony. Will they release a non-boring entry level camera? Fuji. Will they release a new pro DSLR or any interchangeable lens camera? Sigma. Does anyone care? Samsung. Will they make a dent in 4/3rds sales?

Then I suggest you measure the 60-90 milliseconds that it takes your archaic DSLR design to move its loudly slapping, image-jarring, humidity condensing, and sight-obstructing (when lifted), mirror out of the way.

My mirrors are completely different from what you describe. *How* did you measure said time on *your* dslr?? -- lsmft Please BE SURE to capitalize IMPORTANT WORDS in case you think your audience is NOT very bright, or you have a limited vocabulary.

Cameras like that have been out for many years now. Most P&S cameras today have shutter-lags far less than any DSLR made today. Shutter-lags on the order of 30-45ms. They don't have to waste time lifting that loud slapping mirror out of the way. All DSLR shutter-lag averages 60-130ms or more. Some P&S cameras even take continuous frames held in the buffer and will let you keep several shots that were taken before you even press the shutter. In order for you to get those images where in the past you saw something happening, lifted the camera, and said to yourself, "Damn, I just missed that shot". The camera has already been taking them for you, then lets you select which one it was that you thought you had missed and wanted. Are you DSLR fools really this ignorant? No, don't bother answering that. You prove it with every post that you make. Keep on living in last century's technology. Ignorance is bliss after-all, isn't it. |
