    "better detail in the shadows"
    With Jpeg or Raw?

    I have to be honest, I didn't read the whole thing. I did a word search for the things I was interested in.
    ISO appeared three times, and only about expansion.
    Noise and Reduction do not appear at all.
    Better detail in shadows appears once and is questionable since it was included in a statement about how great frame grabs are.

    I know I am making assumptions, but every camera since the 7D (my first dSLR) has had finer noise detail. The 80D/1DxII clearly have better shadow detail at low ISO. Banding has significantly decreased with the 7DII, 80D, etc. Even the 5DIII had less banding than the 5DII.

    I would be shocked if the trend didn't continue and the recent advances shown in both crop and FF sensors didn't carry over. But...this is why I wait for others to review.

    1st off, modern dslr cameras (even without a mirror) are massively capable kmaging devices.

    I am not sure if it means anything that 3rd party "efs" lenses have new life in 4k land. Sigma 35-50 1.8 hmmm come to mind.

    Put that on a slider and oof there is alot tool there for the vid folks.

    3rd party efs types also live again in the crop of the sensor. Provides a whole new gamut of 7d2 and 5d4 debates for fps, reach, etc etc . If you can stand a rolling shutter and 4k frame grab. 30 fps?!?!? For kiddo football soccer etc etc. Pretty fun debate. Remeber something like 99.9% of omages are viewed on an 8 bit 1920x1080 screen. How many of those "exact moments" are now captured at 30 fps Oh giggle and snort

    And isnt it great we can have it!!! Certainly when I got "back in" with the t3i I couldnt imagine we would be here.
