The
Nokia 6120 Camera Phone - December
28, 2007 |
| Nowadays,
even the cheapest mobile phones have a small
camera - does it have practical usages, or it
is just a toy? I recently bought a Nokia 6120
phone, that has a 2 megapixel camera module -
this is a pretty basic unit, with a fixed
focus 4.9mm f/3.2 lens and a small CCD sensor.
I did not expected to get...

First

added some new photos to the galleries: Italy

Geese and Grebes, 1200px

All the new photos had been taken with the Canon
1Ds Mark III!

1Ds3, detail and resolution -
December 17, 2007 |
| It is
almost needless to say that the 1Ds3 has
outstanding resolution! I was already very
happy with the detail captured by the 10
megapixel sensor of my previous 40D, but the
1Ds3 is another world...
I have updated the Canon
1Ds Mark III review with an example of the
resolution of this camera! |

ISO
3200, Canon 1Ds3 vs Canon 5D -
December 15, 2007 |
| Another
camera that I was curios to compare with the
1Ds3 is the 5D. Both cameras have a fullframe
sensor, but the 5D has 12 megapixels VS the 21
megapixel of the 1Ds3, so it has lower
resolution, but better light collection
capabilities: how does them compare?
I have added the test to the Canon
1Ds Mark III review! |

Compact
Flash write speeds - updated with 1Ds3 -
December 14, 2007 |
|
I have updated the Compact
Flash cards write speeds article with the
1Ds3 test...impressive! This camera is not
just "a little faster" than previous
cameras, it is way faster! Thanks to UDMA
support, its write speed blows away even the
recent 1D Mark III...give a look to the
results of my test to see how it performs in
comparision with the other Canon cameras that
I tried.
By the way, today I have used the 1Ds3 in
the field with an extreme combo: Canon
1Ds3 + 600 f/ 4 + teleconverter 1.4x +
teleconverter 2.0x...handheld at 1/640! |

Canon
1Ds Mark III: ISO and noise -
December 10, 2007 |
| The
Canon 1D Mark III was a big improvement in
comparison with the 1D Mark II, in spite of
the smaller photosites: does the same
improvement apply even to the 1Ds3?
I've analyzed the image quality of the 1Ds3
at all ISO settings, and I have compared it to
my previous 40D (I'm going to add a comparison
with the 5D later this week). The results in
my Canon
1Ds Mark III review. |

Canon
1Ds Mark III: an all around camera? -
December 07, 2007 |
| The
Canon 1Ds3 is a good camera for the nature
photographer?
I have been asked many times why I have
choosen the 1Ds3 instead of the faster 1D Mark
III. The answer is...
I've added some consideration about the
1Ds3 and other cameras in the Canon
1Ds Mark III review |

Canon
1Ds Mark III, Autofocus test -
December 06, 2007 |
| The 1Ds3
shares the same AF module of the 1D3, even
though there are some small differences (the
1Ds AF has been adjusted for the slower frame
rate). Considering that the 1D3 has had many
focus issues, I was a bit worried about the
1Ds3 AF...
