anyway I\'m into pixel peeping I just look at it from a further back view. I look at images at 100% of their final output size. if you compare the A7r and A7, you do need to properly downsize the A7r files to 24mp and look at 100% then. IMO.


you are correct, which is what i said i did if you read my whole post.



The panels require a lot of power and generate a lot of heat. There were some available they were just very, very expensive. I\'m just laughing at how Apple gets credit for something they not only don\'t make and didn\'t design themselves but has been around for a long time if you had the cash.

Eizo, NEC, Lucky Goldstar, etc. have been selling IPS panels for a long time, it\'s just that their price points and lack of push in the US (excluding NEC, who have a lot of play in the US medical field), have kept them from being popular.

Then Apple sells some iphones with a Samsung screen and all of a sudden every high resolution screen is \"retina grade\". I mean, if Beats Audio released some headphones with orthodynamic or electrostatic drivers and called the drivers some ridiculously nebulous name, I\'m sure people would start referring to my hifiman planars by that name too.

and I was agreeing with you on the downsizing part. nothing more, nothing less.
