Would you like a tissue? I think a lot of the Ken bashers just need to get over it and MoveOn.org, personally.Lol believe me I've had this watch for a while and his looks reasonable new. I have read enough reviews to know I now avoid his site like the plague. The reason being when his site isn't loaded with hearty fanboyism, pure equipment ****, or other opinionated reviews, then it's loaded with miss-information.
Some of my favourite ever comments on his site include:
- No photographer would ever need a modelling flash. (I have no idea where he pulled this notion from)
- The SB-800 takes longer to cycle than the SB-600 (after firing both at full power. Well DERR the SB-800 puts out more juice. That doesn't make it the slower flash)
- The 80-200 AF-S is useless because of it's flare (said after he admitted to never using the damn lens)
- Colour management is a waste of time. (while claiming he's worked on the first colour managed systems)
- Not to read anything into the colour of his mass wide zoom lens review because he took the shots on different days (great now how do we compare the lens coating if not by the colour)
The list goes on. His site is just way to subjective, and loaded with reviews of products he has never used, or rates entirely on his opinion which he believes to be the only opinion in the world.
Mind you that's not to say that all of what he says is pure crap. Just to take most of it with a grain of salt. Keep in mind that most of the stuff on his site is an opinion. Rarely does he produce things that are objective. Even his test on photographing a brick wall and seeing how much distortion correction he applies in photoshop is a poor way of something that should be done by software using a distortion target.
Given how many good resources there are available on the net it's a shame that he ranks so high on google.
Stop bashing. Start reading. It's there. Next?13.) The SB-800 has more power for each full-power pop so it's supposed to take longer to recycle and give fewer of them. In real TTL use this is irrelevant, since they both will give the same life and recycle times with the same output for each shot as determined by the camera's TTL system.
Right. Using the lens for 5 years = "never using the damn lens".I'm going to poke a lot of fun at my 80-200 AF-S here, but remember that this is probably the sharpest zoom Nikon has ever made and it works like a dream. Don't let my whining distract you. It is one of the sharpest lenses I've ever used, zoom or not, period. It consistently delivers fantastic results that continue to impress me even after using this lens for five years.
