Dpreview about the Canon 50MP sensor: “won’t be able to offer the same industry-leading dynamic range of Sony sensors”

A7r vs 5ds by CameraSize.

Dpreview added an interesting note about the new Canon 5ds 50MP sensor:

As far as dynamic range is concerned, we’re told that the new 5DS and 5DS R should give the same performance as the current EOS 5D Mark III. If true, this means that the new cameras won’t be able to offer the same industry-leading dynamic range of Sony’s current APS-C and full-frame sensors, but at least it isn’t a step backwards.

Well, sound sreally like the A7rII (or A9) could beat the Image Quality delivered by that new Canon 50MP 5Ds.

Good news! Sony’s operating profit doubled during last Quarter (Thanks to selfie boom!).

Share

We finally have good financial news about Sony:

1) Sony’s operating profit doubled to 178.3 billion yen ($1.52 billion) in the October-December quarter, well above estimates of 96.6 billion yen in a Reuters poll. Sales rose 6 percent to 2.56 trillion yen, above consensus estimates of 2.38 trillion yen.

2) Every single business unit was profitable

3) Sony also announced an improved outlook for the full year ending in March, forecasting a net loss of 170 billion yen, up from its previous projection for a 230 billion yen loss.

There is yet no specific info about the camera business but a very curious note: Sony’s Image sensor business is booming mainly because “The demand for front-facing camera modules is going through the roof, because everyone wants to take high-quality selfies, and that doubles the market size for Sony” (Source: Bloomberg)

New Megapixel Monster from Canon dethroned the A7r (in terms of resolution).

Share

The Canon 5ds is now officially listed at Adorama and BHphoto and therefore also officially dethroned the A7r and becomes the new Megapixel resolution King. They do not specifically mention on their press release who makes the sensor. But I guess they would say it’s “Canon designed” anyway. Curious that the Canon’s new camera preorder (yes! not shipping) will start on April 30 too according to Amazon (Click here). Sounds liek the camera actual shipment may be summer only…this gives Sony quite some time to answer with their new A7rII or A9 High Res camera! Afterall in their latest financial results presentation they promised to deliver us “the ultimate resolution”:
