Originally posted by UncleVanya no, as you just quoted, that thread proved everything that i said, you are incorrect... notice the mention of the dof preview button? what do think that is there for? then there is this:
"Of note, when you shoot in M mode the GX7 will not show you any changes beyond 1/1000 of a sec. In other words, it shows you the exposure changing from 1/640, to 1/800, to 1/1000.
After that, you will see no change from 1/1000 to 1/1300." ...the gx7 is not wysiwyg.
Originally posted by UncleVanya Let me take issue with the concept that you have laid out logical constructs. Most of what you have said boils down to Mirrorless is better because exposure accuracy is laid out for you in real time. But when I stated this was NOT a factor for me you felt it important to continue hammering this point despite it being a NON-factor for me.
read the thread title... does it say "what are your personal preferences in a camera"? no, it doesn't, because this is a technology thread.

Originally posted by RobA_Oz I wouldn't like to speak for others, but I'd think many here understand the technical implication of your reference.
oh? then why did we just see several posts that failed to address the technical implications of the aperture being held open? rob, the best you could come up with was an ad hominem attack
vanya claimed that i was incorrect, then proved that i was right with his next sentence, lol

Originally posted by reh321 I did say that I often use the aperture ring to provide a deep DOF, and apparently you do the same thing since you report the calculated DOF as 75' in one of your images {and that is typical of the calculated DOF I aim for}
thanks for proving my point once again... your idea of "focus" is a 75' dof
you don't use the focus ring to focus, you use the aperture ring... classic ovf failed mindset; you can't accurately focus on any specific spot, so you throw 75' of dof at everything.
