Canon and Nikon may have recently made significant strides with their 2010 DLSR models, but they can’t compete with the GH2. The ability to continuously auto-focus during recording is faster on the GH2 than on Nikon’s cameras, with Canon lagging even further behind, and the sheer quality is visibly better than the GH2’s main rivals. click here to read the full review
Panasonic GH2 versus Canon 60D at EOSHD
IMAGE QUALITY
Canon 60D – 7/10
Panasonic GH2 – 9/10
NOTES ON IMAGE QUALITY VERUS 5D MARK II and GH2
Image quality is subjective. Some have valid reasons for liking the 5D Mark II and it’s full frame sensor. Some will love the 60D’s image. But Canon are now significantly behind Panasonic in terms of the overall video performance.
The Panasonic GH2 resolves significantly more detail with less noise than even the 5D Mark II at ISO 3200.

Check out as I use a Canon 5d Mark II with the WFT-4e II as transmitter at the Kennedy Space Center for the launch of Space Shuttle Atlantis. The video is NOT slickly produced as some of our other ones but shows us using a ipad to checkout the camera at the pad from 25 plus miles away. And we are only using air cards for the transmissions.
The PENTAX 645D has been developed to provide super-high-resolution images produced by large image sensors — something previously available only on professional models — to serious landscape and outdoor photographers. It combines exceptional image quality with excellent maneuverability and outstanding reliability to simplify professional-level outdoor shooting. Thanks to the incorporation of a large, high-performance image sensor (measuring 44mm by 33mm) and PENTAXoriginal image-processing technology, it produces extra-sharp, super-high-resolution images with approximately 40 effective megapixels.
Super-high-resolution images made possible by approximately 40 effective megapixels
The PENTAX 645D incorporates a high-performance CCD image sensor produced by Kodak. It measures 44mm by 33mm, and is approximately 1.7 times larger than its 35mm-format counterparts. Thanks to approximately 40 effective megapixels, it assures a wide dynamic range to faithfully reproduce the prevailing ambience and the sense of depth in super-high-resolution images that are rich in gradation and truthful in texture description. In order to bring out the full potential of the lens and the image sensor and assure the highest level of image-resolving power, the CCD unit is designed with no low-pass filters.egapixels
High-performance, high-speed PRIME II imaging engine
The PENTAX 645D features the acclaimed, PENTAX-original PRIME (PENTAX Real Image Engine) II as its imaging engine. Thanks to its high-speed dataprocessing capacity and new algorithm exclusively programmed for medium-format digital SLR cameras, this high-performance imaging engine produces super-highquality images rich in gradation and faithful in color reproduction, while allowing speedy data transmission of large-volume image data — even RAW-format images as large as some 50MB per file.
14-bit A/D converter for faithful conversion of image data to digital signals
The PENTAX 645D features a high-performance A/D converter, which faithfully converts the large volume of analog image data output by the large CCD image sensor to digital signals carrying an extensive amount of image data, including resolution and gradation.
Other features
HDR (high dynamic range) function to create one composite image with an extra-wide gradation range from three images with different exposures
Dynamic-Range Expansion function to compensate for both whitewashed (excessively overexposed) and blacked-out (excessively underexposed) areas
Digital Level function for easy checking of the image’s levels
Automatic compensation of distortion and lateral chromatic aberration (available in combination with the D FA 645- and FA 645- series lenses)
Versatile white-balance control system, including the CTE mode designed to emphasize the dominant color components of the captured images, which works especially well with such scene like sunset.
Mirror shock/operation-noise reduction function to assure smooth, quiet operation of the mirror during shooting
Attachment of copyright credits on recorded images
Compatible with the SDM (Supersonic Direct-drive Motor) autofocus mechanism, designed to assure smooth, quiet operation using the supersonic motor installed inside SDM lenses
HDMI terminal (for type C mini connectors) for high-resolution image data output
User-friendly, color-classified control buttons/switches, based on the color universal design concept
PENTAX Digital Camera Utility 4 software package, including a RAW-data processing application (based on the popular SILKYPIX RAW-data processing engine developed by Ichikawa Soft Laboratory) and browser application
Canon japan announced a service upgrade for the EOS 5D Mark II and EOS 7D that sees the camera’s mode dial will be replaced with a new locking version. The new design is similar to the current EOS 60D model, that it has a center button when pressed it allows the user to change the dial setting, and if center button is not pressed the dial will remain lock to prevent the changing of the mode setting while you travel.
Photographyblog just posted review of Sony A850 DSLR camera,
Boasting no less than 24.6 megapixels, the Sony Alpha DSLR-A850 is the highest-resolution and crucially cheapest full-frame DSLR camera in the world. Sony have differentiated the A850 in price from the more expensive A900 by reducing the size of the image buffer and the continuous shooting speed from 5 to 3fps, changing the viewfinder coverage from 100 to 98%, and making the remote control an inexpensive optional accessory rather than including it in the box. Otherwise the two cameras are exactly the same.Click here to read the full review
