Why? DxO makes good tests, what is wrong there? Of course marginal differences might not really affect IQ in the real world, but it is interesting still. DxO provides some parameters in their tests which are not provided by others (T-stop in lenses for example).
Obsession with measurements is a very male thing. You\'re either the type that loves maths and evidence or you couldn\'t care less - admittedly I\'m in the latter group.
DxO labs and its followers who use miniscule data points to try and prove technical superiority are a little sad, IMHO.
We are photographers not theoretical mathematicians.
Admittedly I loathe measurebation.
Images are what it\'s all about.
go back some years and look at Canons ads about their cameras, then all could read that is about resolution, dynamic range and other parameters that were presented as important by Canon and for the consumer to get a better picture and Canon was off course the leader.
Today when Canon is not leading the race these criteria are less important due many of you, especially at forums like Canon Rumors..
If we would believe Chuck W the Canon\'s U.S. spokesman every time Canon presented a new camera we would today have at least 25 stops DR .
Sorry, Canon has has dug their own grave and their sensors have not been developed in any major steps for the last 10 years regarding a parameter as DR and now they are falling behind in resolution etc and it was is showing up today in a comparison as DXO
