Looking for the truth? Well, look no further, because I found it :-)

San Francisco is the place to find everything

Well what else can be found there? Lots of nice motives!

Old times / Alte Zeiten (High ISO comparison A7-5N)

I don't want to spoil the blog with a lengthy pixel peepers rant on the differences in High ISO performance between the A7 and the 5N. Therefore just a shot of the Canon A1 under low light to illustrate how those old film cameras looked like. We have reached a level where most cameras are "just good enough".
---------------
Ich will den Blog nicht mit langatmigen Betrachtungen auf Pixel-Niveau bezüglich des Rauschverhaltens der Sony A7 und Nex 5N verunstalten. Deshalb hier nur ein Bild einer alten Canon A1 bei wenig Licht um zu illustrieren wie eine solche Filmkamera aus den 70/80ern aussieht. Wir haben ein Niveau erreicht, bei dem die meisten Kameras einfach "gut genug" sind.

For more details, comprehensive comparisons are available for download:
