Re: Official: Canon 5DS, 5DS R and 11-24mm lens released!
Wow, really great camera prices. Based on the 5D3 I was expecting $4500 range.
11-24/4 is a little higher than I would\'ve thought. It\'s a lot wider than the 14-24/2.8 but it\'s also a stop slower; I was thinking maybe $5-600 more expensive, not $1000. I\'m sure it\'s worth it, though. 11mm full frame with a >1\' MFD? Gonna be able to create some wild effects.
As I\'ve mentioned in other threads, I\'m very suspicious about the SNR [even at low ISO] of these tiny little pixels, but I\'m open to being proven wrong on that. No, my main disappointment with these specs is the damn LCD. The same 720x480 panel everyone\'s been using since 2008 AGAIN?! At some point live view is going to become so useless that they\'ll need to either get just drop it or switch to a decent LCD panel. I thought 24mp was that point, but here we are at 50...
