Canon Patent for sensor based SR!

PentaxPoke · 01-28-2010, 11:26 PM

I really hate articulated screens on DSLR's. I mean I really hate them. It is an absurd, irrational, inexplicable hate, yet I can not deny it. A hate that burns with the intensity of a thousand suns.

Whew. Ok, there I said it. I'm glad Pentax doesn't make one.

Pentax will eventually. The rumor is that the upcoming 60D will have an articulated screen. I was stunned Nikon added one to their lineup.

Marketing people love things like articulated screens. The more check boxes they can tick off the better.

If 5d mark iii will have sensor SR, we'll have a full-frame sensor stabilized machine finally!

Sony already has that with the A850/A900.

Gotta look into how adaptable sony is with MF primes

I guess I'm too set on the 17mm TS that I forgot that Sony has FF too...

The 17 TS is Canon....

Sony has its "native" Zeiss glass, takes all the old Minolta AF lenses, and I gather M42 adapts readily and OM lenses with a fairly basic mount modification...

Yeah, right now one of my main reasons to go canon FF is that lens

and OM glass on 5dii yields wonderful, wonderful results. I'd have to see how the A900/850 perfroms in regards to that, and I might get swayed to sony

Yeah, OM lenses and Canon FF bodies = some magical combination. I have 4 Zuikos right now (24/2.8, 28/3.5, 35/2 and 50/1.8) and they are all lovely.
