[Video] Canon 5DMkIII, 5DMkII, and Nikon D800 Low-Light Video Test — Take 2
You may remember a while ago when we posted a candlelight video test by Joe Marine over at NoFilmSchool.com. After seeing feedback from the video, Joe sent me a new one (thanks!).

But later on in the video, Joe got some interesting results when adding noise reduction and color correcting… [more]
[Rare Lens] $160,000 Nikkor 6mm 2.8 Fisheye Can See Behind You
It’s not everyday that you get to see a rare 1970s Nikkor 6mm Fisheye lens. It’s even more unlikely that you get to see one mounted to the rare Nikon D800 DSLR body! The guys at Grays of Westinster mounted the two elusive beasts to show how insane it is to have a 220º angle of view. If you have $160,000 saved up, and need to see behind you as you shoot, it might be worth picking up one of these rare lenses. Now where are those full res D800 files so everyone can complain about purple fringing? [more]

I didn’t believe my buddy when he told me that his brand new Nikon D800 viewfinder was always out of focus. I assumed that he had the diopter out of whack. It wasn’t until I used the camera myself that I realized there was a serious problem. The camera was sent back to Nikon for repair and he received the camera back last week with the same issue. After sending it back a second time, Nikon has admitted that “a run” of D800s have an issue with viewfinder alignment. [more]

And so, we now have a lot of people talking about what could be a very cool camera — with a few key things left behind… [more]

Since we read the press release, we have been itching to get our hands on one. Why? Because this lens fills a void we have been aching for since DSLRs started shooting quality video. [more]
