Re: R-D 1 and G1 combo workout
Actually from a previous post, if memory serves, you had said the D80 felt faster than the G1, although the G1 actually has a shorter lag (for all practical purposes they are identical -- 77ms vs 83ms.) 6ms is far too short of a difference for a human to perceive.
OK, I looked it up to be sure:
"I always have to anticipate the action a bit: with the R-D 1 hardly at all, with the D300 a bit more, with the D80 a bit more than that. The G1 seems to require a little more than the D80."
Similarly the difference between the RD1 at 40ms and the D300 at 45ms is too short to perceive.
My gut tells me you are sensing differences between the various cameras in 'feel' or handling or some other perception (the feel of the shutter button press itself?) rather than actual difference in lag.
Impressive detail in that Nokton, I must say. And very helpful info regarding underexposure...the Epson and the G1 are definitely complementary.
Heh. Literally, I think it's all in your finger.-- The difference between the R-D 1's basically instant shutter response and the G1's slower response (I know Monza thinks this is all in my head, but my shutter finger says different) took some getting used to, but I did get used to it.
