ScanSpeak: So is this a full frame sensor?
Dr_Jon: "The Sony MF sensor is a noticeable crop from any MF film camera."
As is the sensor used in the Leica S. As is the Kodak KAF 39000 used in the Pentax 645D.
As far as I can see, in the digital era "MF" is anything bigger than FF.
Dorothy, we not in the land of film any more.
ScanSpeak: So is this a full frame sensor?
JimW-203: "The new Hasselblad sensor is 44X33mm (so-called "crop" is actually an enlargement by a factor of 1.68). Thus, the 90mm would have an angle of view equivalent to a 54mm lens on a FF camera; the 45mm would be equal to 27mm."
Jim, you're confusing the ratio of sensor areas with CF. CF is the ratio of the FF diagonal length to the sensor's diagonal, i.e. 43.3mm/55mm = 0.78, as mentioned in the specs. The diagonal length is used so that sensors with different ARs can be compared e.g. 3:2 and 4:3.
So the AOV of a 90mm lens on this sensor will be the same as a 70mm lens on a FF camera.
This sensor has the potential to collect 0.75 stops more light at the same exposure level.
Look at the figures for the Pentax 645D which has the same sized sensor, but which has a different number of MP:
endofoto: Medium formats have the lowest DR, and the worst high ISO performance. Which medium format camera are you referring to?
And I should add that the High ISO's good too with this moderm MF camera. The DxOMark Sports Score is usually (but not always) based on the highest ISO that gives an "acceptable" 30dB SNR.
The Sports Score of the 645Z is 4505 vs the D810's 2853.
Note: the "Sports Score" really doesn't indicate the suitability of a camera for sports. That's more about AF, burst speed and burst buffer depth, and the D810 is much better equipped for this role than the 645z. But with its much bigger sensor, the 645z is probably better in LL situations.
endofoto: Medium formats have the lowest DR, and the worst high ISO performance. Which medium format camera are you referring to?
Modern MF cameras with Sony CMOS sensors have good DR. The sensor in the 645Z has a 14.7 stops DR, similar to the 14.8 stops of the D810 at ISO64.
Prognathous: With this kind of performance, Pentax should add an option to expose-to-the-left, basically aligning exposure to the left of the histogram. The pictures may look dark before processing, but at the same time will provide the fastest possible shutter speed (for a given aperture) - without loss of detail in dark areas and without blown highlights (possibly not even light sources).
In the interests of reducing shot noise, you should always maximise the number of photons captured during an exposure. So you should ETTR, but only at base ISO.
Once the exposure results in a capture which is too dim for your liking, you normally then boost the ISO. This increases the mapping of the number of photons to a digital value representing a pixel's brightness, so the image is now brighter. But it doesn't increase the number of captured photons, so the signal-to-shot-noise ratio stays the same.
Good "ISO Invarient" performance is due to very low ADC (later-stage) noise.
What Ricoh should be doing, is offering an "ISOless" (or whatever they call it) mode for raw shooters, where the ISO either stays at base ISO, or only increases a little e.g up to ISO400 for shots that normally use high-ISO, and boosting the review image's brightness, so what's seen on the back LCD is not too dim.
This boost value would also be stored in the metadata for "default" raw conversions.
TrueAmateur: I hope some knowledgeable readers can help me understand "pushing shadows". If I brighten the dark areas of an image without affecting the bright areas (using Shadow slider?), wouldn't the midtone range get squashed so that two adjacent midtone pixels that used to be slightly different now become identical? That is a loss of midtone detail. But if I brighten only the dark area, some distant pixels that should be different will become identical; the image would lose faithfulness and acquire that dreamy dizzy HDR look. As long as we have only 256 levels for each colour, pushing shadows exacts a cost in image quality. Am I missing something here? Thank you!
The 256 steps in 8-bits-per-colour JPEG are sufficient to prevent posterisation if you perform any brightness manipulation *before* the application of the Tone Response Curve and Gamma, which shoe-horns the 16K linear steps of 14-bit raw into the JPEG version. (Also, the JPEG almost always has lossy compression applied too. Although some JPEG versions offer lossless compression, these are not used much.)
So you boost levels and saturation in a raw editor, *and then* you save the final output as a much more constrained JPEG.
If you're heavily manipulating a JPEG you need to be careful as you've got a lot less data to work with.
princecody: What the main difference between this tech & Olympus high res mode?
No. Richoh tech is not necessarily better than Olympus. Olympus uses a smaller MFT sensor, which benefits from the greater NR of 8 shots vs 4 shots. The FF sensor has less need of NR from shot-stacking.
Also the 1/2-pixel shifts in Olympus creates Super Resolution. There's less need of this with the 36MP in the K-1 sensor.
But both the 4-full-pixel-shift & the 8-half-pixel-shift systems give you much better chroma resolution than a standard Bayer CFA.
disasterpiece: Is it just me or do the D810 images look better?
You prefer the D810 picture in this comparison? So you like the moire in the finer text?
Have a look at the mushiness of the edges of the coloured roundels in the 5 o'clock position of the tableaux. The red/blue transition is presented much better with pixel-shifting.
dosdan: Cary, I understand you only had a few hours to use the camera. But there's some nice features in Pentax cameras that make the shooter's life easier.
For example, in your "Pentax K-1 Pixel Shift Resolution demo" video, you zoomed in repeatedly to check the effect of the pixel-shifting. If this camera is like earlier Pentaxes, when the review image appears on the back LCD, you can just turn the rear dial (now used for zooming) 1 click to the right.
Rather than going 2x, 2.8x, 4x ... 16x to check the focus, you can preset the first-click amount. On my K-3, I've set it to 8.3x (100%). So I get a very convenient jump to 100% pixel-peeping for focusing accuracy. Once there, left-turning the dial zooms out (8x, 5.6x etc), while right-turning zooms in (11x, 16x), and pressing the OK button on the back returns you to 1x.
Your current zoom level & panning position (e.g. lower-right corner) holds as you use the front dial to move through reviewing shots.
All very sensible.
@Matthew Saville "I know Pentaxians use that dial to zoom, but for both Canon and Nikon shooters it is common to have 1-click 100% zoom assigned to a rear button, which IMO requires less effort than making a single dial click."
What does a 2nd press of this customised zoom button in Canon/Nikon do? Zoom in? Zoom Out? 1x?
Is the zoom level/position maintained when you jump to the next shot, or do you need to touch the button again? I would think a maintained zoom level/position would be helpful when comparing multiple shots of the same scene.

I know DPR's policy is to use ACR because of its market dominance, but doesn't ACR incorporate undisclosed "optimisations" that vary with the ISO? Because if it does, then the results of this test will be affected, perhaps significantly.
A test of ISO100 vs ISO1600 (4stops) should be performed using both ACR and RawTherapee (an open-source raw converter whose neutral processing behaviour is verifiable). If there is no difference, fine.
I'm not against raw converter optimisations if they can be disabled when required. But if they are present in ACR and can't be disabled, then this is not a test of "true" ISO invariance, but of "real world" behaviour i.e. what ACR has been specifically designed for, with ISO100 shots expected to need less noise optimisation than ISO1600+ shots.
Why were the streets so bare of people and the clothing factory so empty of workers?
forpetessake: Sony is soon going to make Canon a third party lens manufacturer.
ttran88: "A $3200 camera will hardly give you a 1% increase in market share. Troll better"
True, but the tech in this will filter down to the cheaper cameras in the Sony range.
forpetessake: Sony is soon going to make Canon a third party lens manufacturer.
It's good to see that Canon will still continue as a going concern, and be able to play a niche role in the photographic industry, as the innovation in their DSLR range decreases :-)
Lee Jay: No AA filter = no sale.
No OVF = no sale.
I suspect I'll never own a Sony camera since they'll never produce something I'd buy.
Lee Jay: "And AA filters are so important that I wouldn't buy a camera without one unless it were in the gigapixel range."
You do release that the sensor pixel size + AA filter + lens are effectively a series-connected optical low-pass-filter? Just how much resolution do the lenses you use have? John Sheehy's calculations indicate that 150MP on a FF should be sufficient with even the finest lenses.
If you're so worried about moiré in these current "low-res" sensors without AA filters, there is a solution. Since Sony uses IBIS, they could have a switchable AA simulator if they license the tech from Ricoh/Pentax. Just involves oscillating the sensor up to 1px of rotary movement via the IBIS .
FocusBogus: Still not fully electronic shutters on mirrorless cameras in 2015? Sounds like a conspiracy: camera industry can sell some generations of cameras with mechanical shutters and later generations without them.
frzRom: "But BSI + on chip phase AF + on chip Dram ... Not sur it is possible to do it."
With stacked BSI tech (Exmor RS), pixel memory for a global shutter without any reduction in fill-factor may well be possible.
For more info on the problems involved with implementing a global shutter see:
Androole: I think the SuperRAW is obviously the most (I would argue really the only) significant element of this announcement.
However, it does make you feel like there's a bit of an agenda given that they carefully measured the performance of the SuperRAW in absolutely ideal test conditions, yet they decided that it wasn't worth it for them to measure the E-M5 II's High Res Mode when they reviewed it just 2 months ago. Hmmm...
And I bet they won't test the Pentax K-3 II's multi-exposure mode, either...
But DxO only deals with raw files. If the stacked mode is only available for JPEGs, then DxO won't measure it. PhotoAcute, and now DxO, offers the result of stacking in a DNG output format.
BTW, Pentax offers a multi-raw shot HDR file in PEF format, but this is really a container format than contains multiple separate raw shots, each with different exposure parameters, rather than one HDR shot with combined raw data.
The comparison of the noise of the D810 and the A7S in the 2nd page of the article was not a good choice, as the A7S is likely to be using Aptina's (now ON Semiconductors) DR-Pix technology.
There is a step in the read noise between ISO1600 and IS2000+, with the higher ISOs show less RN than expected. DR-Pix technology allows the changing of the gain in the sensor, so the sensor designer's trade-off between Full Well Capacity, Conversion Gain & Read Noise can be altered in-camera.
A better pixel-size comparison choice would have been between the Pentax K-5 (16MP) & K-3 (24MP), both APS-C cameras.
On the DR graph you can use the Screen tab to seen the pixel-level performance, while the Print tab shows the result using the same output size e.g. same print size.
coyot3: I tested on my nikon d3100 and the results are at iso 100 1" f4 underexposing 4 ev and later recovering in Darktable(linux) give less noise than iso 3200 1/30 f4 no exposure changes.
I dont know if i understand right the article xD im going to re read ._.
¿Some thoughts on my results?
You'll find an ISO100 + 4-stops boost VS ISO1600, using a K-5, here:
The exposure and sensor was the same in both cases: same scene luminance, same shutter speed & same f-stop. So the shots have the same amount of shot noise. But the ISO100 image was sent to the ADC at 1/16th of the level of the ISO1600 shot, so it was "under-brightened" in the stored image file.

A parliamentary committee from Speaker Nabih Berri's bloc visited Christian leaders Thursday, kicking off the first round of meetings with Lebanese officials to discuss the upcoming presidential election.Berri formed the committee earlier this week and tasked it with visiting various leaders and heads of parliamentary blocs to inquire about their opinions of possible presidential candidates. The committee is comprised of MPs Ali Osseiran, Yassin Jaber and Michel Musa.Murr said he believed all MPs should be present at the Parliament once the speaker calls for a session to elect a president.Jaber added that the committee's mission would be over within days, adding that Berri had begun efforts to foster a suitable atmosphere to convene a session and elect a president.Parliament will convene twice Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in the morning and the afternoon to discuss an agenda, which includes 70 draft laws.

This robe is such a nice robe, not really a summer weight, more of a fall weight. Pretty in purple, and well made, but there is no way it can fit anything less than a tall, plus sized lady!! It's like the first time in my life that a one size fits all anything fit me!! I'm 5' 10" and weigh over 200 pounds and most of my weight is in my butt and this robe still could be considered a bit big on me. There's just no way it can fit a gal any smaller than me, so please keep looking if you are!

My husband needed a lightweight bathrobe for use during the warmer months of the year, so I gave him this waffle-weave robe for his birthday. It is exactly what he wanted and I couldn't be happier with the quality. It is very similar to the robes supplied at spas and some hotels, and I didn't have to worry about what size to order because one size fits most. It is even monogrammed for a personal touch!

It is rather on the large size but so comfy and cozy. I love that the belt is attached. I'm 5'5" and wear size 8-10 and this wraps around me with the pockets meeting up close Togther in the front. Love how deep the pockets are great to hold my cellphone when I'm sitting on my porch in the morning waiting for my dog to finish her business. I bought the navy and it is a beautiful dark blue like sapphire. I don't mind that the robe is large it makes for more room to layer pajamas underneath on cold winter mornings. I would buy again. Also I've owned this robe a 3 years now and it hasn't faded and still looks like new. No one would know it's as old as it is 😉

the quality of this organic cotton one-size-fits-all robe is superior in every way. before this purchase I never realized how much better organic cotton felt. the drape and feel of the organic cotton fabric is luxurious. the color is deep and appealing, a richly drenched navy blue color---not a cheap dye job. the robe is very well constructed, comfortable, very, very roomy, with two large pockets, and falls to mid calf on my 5'5" frame. this is not a skimpy, tight fitting robe and must be wrapped and tied on my thin frame which makes it really look like I am wearing a Japanese kimono :-). the sewed on belt is an additional nice touch. overall it is far better than I expected it would be. really perfect for warmer, muggier summer months.

This is the second plush polyester bathrobe I have had. It, like the previous one, tends to "pill" after washing, but I really think that is just the nature of polyester fleece. I just trim off the "pills" and after enough machine washing and drying, the "pilling" goes away leaving the robe still soft and warm and snuggly. The robe is reasonably well made. I did have to sew back a bit of one pocket where the stitches had come loose, but "no big deal". Compared to several similar robes at a couple department stores that I had previously tried on, this robe was lighter, softer, and fit better. It was also half the price. I originally planned to give this as a gift, but decided to go with a different "fancier" brand for the gift. I am keeping this for myself however, as I think it is a good deal for the price.

I had a "spa-quality" terry bath robe that was very heavy and therefore hot. I wanted a light/middle weight terry robe to replace it, and this one fits the bill. It's very soft, but not plush, like the ones I see in the stores, so it's also absorbent. I don't like the fleece and plush ones - they just don't feel right to me. The weight on this one is perfect - not too heavy, but enough to provide modest cover. The only thing I would change is the length. It's a little long for me, but that will be welcome in the winter, and better too long than too short.

This is a good quality robe but the "one size fits all" makes a sloppy fit on my smaller frame. I should have realized it would be big on me. Keeping it anyway but I won't be wearing it whenever I care how I look.

This robe is just as it appears - one size fits most, high quality terry cloth, washes well and fills the need for a robe. I can't get too excited about a robe, sorry.

A one size fits all traditional cotton terry bath robe. Comfortable and washes well.
You have plenty of big, fluffy towels to keep you warm when you hit the bathroom's cold tile floor after a shower. But haven't you forgotten something? Staying cozy after you have dried off requires a bathrobe to wear when you really need to warm up. A luxurious bathrobe can be a particularly great addition to your morning or evening shower or simply a soft piece of clothing to wrap up in on a lazy weekend. Still not convinced you need to buy one? Here are five more reasons you'll want to make sure you have a robe in your bathroom. Read More

Absolutely hilarious. Slow, but funny and heartwarming just the same.Published 19 months ago by Nick Paul
Really enjoyed this film, although didn't see the need to show Ralph Little naked and peeing! Apart from that, a nice film.Published on 1 July 2014 by Bassguy
A confused but very slow plot. Charming ending but not worth waiting for. Altogether not worth any price or even the time watching it hoping it could get better.Published on 19 Jan. 2011 by Kindle Customer
This was a great film, I bought it on the reviews of others, and wasn't disappointed. All the characters are very good, it is a heartwarming, true-to-life film. Read morePublished on 27 Oct. 2008 by Gimme Gompo

Is this attraction free to the public?
Would this be a good rainy day activity?
Is this attraction wheelchair accessible?
Thanks for helping!
The trails are very well marked, great for a family outing. Perfect for enjoying the outdoors and not overly strenuous.
This place is amazing! Every step is breathtaking and picture perfect. You can walk for hours and feel peaceful.
Quite a few locals and a some outsiders such as myself enjoyed hiking. I went there 2 of 3 days in the mornings before going on other adventures There were "easy paths" to "advanced paths" to "only idiots" paths. Scenery was amazing!
Red Rock Canyon is my absolute favorite place to hike in Colo Spgs. The dogs and I are in absolute heaven when we go there. I like the fact that it's not a far drive from the city, the trails vary in difficulty and length so I can take not so athletic family members and they can still enjoy, and...
A beautiful park with easy hiking trails, wildlife, and rock formations to rival garden of the gods. A great place for wildflowers and birdwatching also
A great place to explore with interesting rocks. Not as 'monumental' as Garden of the Gods but it's also not as touristy. I stress previous reviewers who note this is NOT the amphitheater west of Denver. But a great thing it's a free place to enjoy the outdoors.
Great variety of trails. Can choose long or short hikes. Nice scenery. Trails well maintained. Not crowded. Lots of parking. Easy access off Rt 24.
We toured GOTG, the. The 2nd day we went here. Wow! Some city, just minutes away from each other but such different hiking & views! Just as the other park. Get there early to make sure you get parking. This park has a little less shade than GOTG so I would suggest getting their early. (Or maybe an evening hike)....
Don't confuse this with Red Rocks Amphitheater near Denver. This is a great open space with awesome hiking and exploring located near Colorado Springs. If Garden of the Gods is crowded (and when is it not so?) check out this area instead. Be ready for a little walking and you should love it.
Great place to hike. My kids, ages 12-18 really enjoyed Red Rock Canyon. Beautiful scenery, exercise, family fun, and it's FREE.
Going to Colorado Springs and Canon City area for 4th of July trip - where is the best fireworks show? Thank you!
Can you drive it rather then hike?
Is it as impressive as Garden of the Gods?
Is it handicap accessible? Because I have MS, so I use a wheelchair.
Thanks, Christine
I am starting to plan my outdoor wedding and I was considering getting married here if possible?. Is the Pavilion available for an event like this? Is there a fee? Are motorcycles allowed to be on any of the large paths to be used as a walkway for the wedding? Thank you
Can seniors who are past their hiking days see much from the road?

It is not as though the top players actually need a long break such as this one. After all, they find time to play lucrative exhibitions in December and come back stronger than ever in January. Am I nuts? --JJ Johnson, Allentown, Pa.• There were several questions this week about tennis' off-season, such as it is, an oxymoron akin to "team of mavericks" and "guest host." The ATP's decision to reduce the season by two weeks -- one of which was a "dead" week anyway -- is what it is: a compromise that won't make a lot of difference but will enable both the tournaments and the players to retreat to their constituents claiming victory. Good for Adam Helfant for doing something. But it's hard to see this making much a difference. The calendar in tennis is a decades-old Sphyxian riddle. The tournaments have an interest totally at odds with that of the players -- at least the top players.Quick points to consider:1.) When the ATP stripped the feeble Hamburg event of its Masters Series status, it triggered a dispute-still ongoing-that cost the ATP more than $20 million in fees. Suggestions that the ATP simply lop a dozen events off the calendar are neither feasible nor realistic.2.) While Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Roddick might, rightfully, want a longer of-season, there are a lot of lesser players who would welcome an additional opportunity to earn money. Until tennis offers players guaranteed contracts, a big chunk of the labor force isn't going to be keen about reducing work opportunities.3.) My pet theory: a lot of the wear and tear isn't from playing, per se, but from the rigors of travels. Players a generation ago could go through 80 matches in part because they were going from Miami to Tampa, not from New York to Asia to Europe. Maybe the ATP needs to fight space, not time.4.) The great unspoken: there are four weeks of Davis Cup that clutter the schedule. If I'm the ATP major domo, I'm triangulating my members and going after the ITF.5.) One of the tournaments to "suffer" from rescheduling is the Bucharest event, owned by Ion Tiriac. This is the same Ion Tiriac who was all but gifted the Madrid tournament. Coincidence?5.) By any measure, it was a rough year for Stacy Allaster at the WTA. But big credit to her for pushing through legislation and getting the WTA season to end before Halloween. The ATP's "big" announcement-really not so big -- puts the WTA in a flattering light.Who is your 2010 WTA MVP? Caroline Wozniacki won the most and is No. 1, but she also played the most and was the least successful on the big stages. Williams won 2 slams (normally that would be enough) but she barely played, and when it wasn't a Slam she wasn't impressive. Clijsters finished strong, won another slam, and played well against the top players, but she didn't play that much more than Serena. Schiavone won a slam and the Fed Cup, if Clijsters is in the running why not her? It's a dilemma. Maybe they should make like Reggie Bush's Heisman and just not award it this year. Hopefully next year the discussion will be about who deserves it, not about who doesn't deserve it the least. -- Scott Olson, Salt Lake City.• Reggie Bush's Heisman was awarded. It was just pried from his arms, linebacker-style, when the slimy details oozed forth. I agree that the WTA would be better off if there were a clear-cut winner. But there's no sense withholding honors. So who wins? Good for Wozniacki for getting to No. 1. No way around it: she won a lot of tennis matches. But you cannot coronate a player an MVP when she fails to win a Major. As for Serena, she played three events this year outside the Slams. Impressive as she was in Australia and at Wimbledon, it's hard to anoint a player who averages one tournament every two months. Which leaves me voting for Clijsters. She won a Slam; she won the year-end shindig; she won in Cincy; she's good people. Not the perfect candidate, but she gets my vote.Jon, so which tournaments are you referring to when you say "Especially with so many American tournaments moving off-shore ..."? The tense of "moving" implies current or future activity. Even if you had said "having moved" I can't think of how you can say "so many". Please explain. Thanks. -- Robert Smith, Hong Kong• Ah, semantics. I know of no tournaments currently moving off-shore. (Oh wait, zoom in. I think I see the Advanta Championships to the left of Tahiti, making its way to Macau.) But think past tense here. Over the past decade or so, events in Scottsdale/Las Vegas, San Diego, and Philadelphia have gone elsewhere. In the early aughts (aside: can we come up with a better nickname for the first two decades of a century?) the tours' year-end championships were held in Los Angeles (WTA) and Houston (ATP). Now they're in Doha/Istanbul and London. Indian Wells very nearly left for sandier pastures before Larry Ellison swooped in.I was happy to see that Magnus Norman was finally part of a title win in Paris, albeit as Robin Soderling's coach. Between them, they have now lost three Roland Garros finals. Soderling has now equaled Norman's biggest tournament win, the Masters event in Rome in 2000, and has managed to stay healthy and in the top 10 longer than his coach did. Question is, will Soderling ever win a Slam? -- Aaron Gerritz, Arlington, Va.• Good question. I still say Andy Murray is the best player never to have cashed in a big prize. But Soderling is a close second. Big, heavy, flat strokes. Lots of juice on the serve. A decent athlete. Not a lot of holes. He's not as complete a player as Murray and lacks Murray's "tennis cerebrum" but he hits a bigger ball. As long as Federer and Nadal are in the game, everyone else is outside candidate. But can Soderling string together seven straight wins under right circumstances? Sure.Jon, McEnroe just claimed that Borg and Nadal are the greatest "athletes" ever to play tennis. I think Sampras is the greatest athlete ever to play with Rafter and Noah right behind him. What are your thoughts? -- Dax Pataki, Alpharetta, Ga.• This is a fun discussion but let's define "athlete" first. Speed and strength? Hand-eye coordination? Flexibility? What about poise? Donald Young might be beat the field in a footrace. Juan Monaco could bench press a courtesy car. Yet you won't see either of them in the London field. As much as we admire Nadal, I think there's a case to be made the Federer is just as much an elite-if in an entirely different way. His flexibility his unparalleled, he's deceptively fast, and anyone who's managed to stay so free of injury has to have a cooperative body.You know how unfair we think it is that Federer has never been chosen athlete of the year considering his past dominance of the sport? Well, look up the stats on Kelly Slater and think of how much worst he has gotten the shaft based on his accomplishments. Most dominant person in their sport?-- Carlos, Easton, Conn.• These are fun belly-up-to-the-bar conversations. But, the same way it's hard to compare the achievements of a tennis player to the achievements of a golfer, how do we "look up stats" and determine that Kelly Slater has gotten a raw deal? Surfing isn't particularly popular from a participation standpoint, so the competition is relatively shallow (no pun intended) at least compared to, say, soccer or basketball or even tennis. This is not to diminish what he's done. But surfing titles versus Super Bowls or NBA scoring titles? There's just no way to lay out an empirical comparison. It's not comparing apples and oranges. That comparing, like, apples and ball bearings.On the subject of getting more statistical information about tennis, while I would love to have more of the information you've written about, the very idea of "volunteer statistician" is hilarious. Even if you're not having them run cross-tabs (trust me on this), just having them try to make judgment calls (was that error forced, or not? Etc.) would be impossible--there would be very little uniformity, and that would make the whole endeavor useless, or nearly so. -- Nick S., Boston.• We're not talking about Randy the tech guy busting out of work early to determine whether Federer's shot are errors or winners. We're talking about tennis fans taking available data and coding it, organizing it, and making it accessible. What percent of Serena's aces come serving up the middle? What percent of Nadal's passing shot winners are hit crosscourt? Does Federer play better worse facing break point? Over the course of a season, what percentage of players choosing to return first, end up winning the match? These are fairly basic questions-and I suspect there's some real empirical gold in there-yet there, currently, there's no way to get answers.Adds Jim of New York City: with regards to the discussion on improving tennis stats, how come there isn't a "free points" won on serve stat? "[first/second] serve percentage" and "percentage of points won [on first/second] serve" leaves a gaping hole in info. Nadal used to spin the ball in and grind his way to winning points. if both percentages were high it leaves out how hard he had to win points as opposed to say, Federer. What constitutes a "free point" on serve? an ace, service winner, three stroke rally (putaway winner by server, likely to a blocked "sitter" return), four stroke rally -- returner able to get a racket on server's supposed putaway but unable to get the ball back in play, plus scorer's discretion for any rally longer than four shots. These cheap/easy/free points do not get recorded by current match stats, something that would give a better idea on how well a player's serve is helping to win points. Also, a way to amend break points is to include in parentheses how many total different games the player had break point chances. so if a player is 3-for-12 (3), then that player broke every time there was a break opportunity, and the seemingly poor percentage stat is put into context.Thank you Mr. W! I presume you are laughing at me. Still, your answer sent me looking up rankings below the top 30s for a change. And it's shocking how some promising or prominent names are in the 200s -- e.g. Acasuso 251? The entertaining Daniel Koellerer 256? A cruel sport. -- M. Ng, Vancouver, Canada.• No one's laughing at anyone here. Just a cluster of international tennis fans having good, clean fun. (M. Ng asked the question last week about the future Wimbledon champ.) You're right, though, this is a cruel sport. Once you get out of the top 50 or so, it's amazing what a tenuous, economically-challenging job this can be. Imagine be the 250th best brain surgeon, or fund manager or math teacher and plumber or whatever..and struggling to make a living.• A shout-out to transparency. Here are the ATP's 2009 990 forms:• From our friends at the Hall of Fame: "As you may be aware, the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum has been nominated in the very cool Hampton Hotels Save-A-Landmark program, a national community-outreach campaign dedicated to preserving fun and historic landmarks in all 50 states.

How Do You Want To Record Today?
The H6 is the most versatile portable recorder ever, which means it can handle virtually any kind of recording job, from live concert recording to location videography, from electronic newsgathering to music production.
Included Capsules
The XYH-6 allows you to do stereo X/Y recording and provides dual large diaphragm mic elements with adjustable width—choose 90 degrees for a more focused sound or 120 degrees for a wider stereo image. It''s great for recording classical music and for capturing sound effects in the field.
Step up to a whole new level of precision sound-shaping with the MSH-6, which contains a forward-facing, unidirectional mic (the "Mid") and a side-facing, bi-directional mic (the "Side"). In conjunction with the H6''s onboard MS decoder, it allows you to capture a fully mono-compatible stereo image that can actually be adjusted after recording—ideal for film, video, and television projects.
Available Capsules and Accessories (Not Included)
SGH-6 Shotgun mic capsule
Get all the pickup with half the length by connecting an SGH-6, which adds a professional-quality, highly directional shotgun microphone to your H6. Three elements, combined with digital signal processing, give you the highly directional pickup power of a conventional shotgun in a unit only half the size, making it optimum for recording dialogue and narration with no intrusive mic in the scene.
XYH-5 shockmounted X/Y mic capsule
The advanced XYH-5 provides dual matched unidirectional condenser microphones housed in an advanced shockmount to minimize vibration and handling noise—ideal for location videography and broadcasting/podcasting. In addition, the XYH-5 is designed to handle extremely loud sounds, making it the perfect choice for capturing the sound of live rock concerts and for electronic newsgathering (ENG) applications.
EXH-6 Dual XLR/TRS Combo capsule
The EXH-6 adds two more mic- or line-level inputs to your H6, allowing you to connect up to four discrete signals from external microphones, instruments, mixers, or portable music players and fully realize your creative vision.

Customer Reviews

I have been a long term user of the H4n and I swore by it in the field to record solid audio for my DSLR video work as well as quick mix downs when doing live audio recordings for my business. This device was a godsend when it released and I have been using it for years. I always thought, how could you make it better than it is today, and the H6 addressed all of my issues that I had.
* The mic pre-amps in this device are far superior to the H4n. The noise floor is lower and my post work after shooting video with my DSLR is much better, the audio sounds warmer and clearer and it appears that the signal is a lot cleaner at low dBs
* 4 channels of XLR right out of the box! I love it! Now I can do a backup recording or record 4 XLR's at the same time! I can't tell you how many times I would have loved to push up the pre-amp just a bit to drive out the noise but I couldn't becuase of clipping. Now this is not a concern as you have individual compression on each channel and the ability to do a dual recording with a backup with less gain.
* Yes this does fit in the H4n SKB waterproof case. As soon as I got the device, I pulled the H4n out of the case and put this right into it, with all of the accessories with no problems. The H6 without the mics attached is exactly the same size as the H4n
* The gain dials are smooth and a perfect addition. Much better than the push button gain control on the H4n
* Pad switches right on top. Perfect
* Full Color Display is way better on the eyes and great in low light, and now the display dims to save battery versus turning off the backlight completely.Read more ›
You see, I've been to the dance before and been less than impressed. I've owned a number of portable recorders through the years, knew enough about how to operate them to be dangerous and still didn't know what some of the buttons were for. Getting the unit out of the box caused deer in the headlight syndrome with fundamental questions such as "how do I turn the thing on" and then after finally figuring out how to run it, getting audio transferred to my computer without it seeing a blank SD Card...which has happened with some other "great", "foolproof", "easy to operate" and "drop dead outstanding" recorders. (I'd have about as much success landing the Space Shuttle).
None of the above is true of the Zoom H6...it truly is amazing...and yes, this one really is built well and is so easy to use I probably could hand it to my wife and she'd figure it out...which is saying something as she complains that such things "don't like her".
I've owned a number of fairly higher end hand held audio recorders.Read more ›
First, the good. It starts up fast, the microphones sound pretty good, it can record lots of channels, with phantom power.
The things that need improvement:
1) the knobs are too easily bumped. The H5 fixes this with a bar across them. But on the H6, you'll find you can too easily change record levels by bumping the knobs.
2) as others have noted, every single file records into it's own folder. This is among the stupidest things I have EVER seen in a recorder.
3) more than that, if you switch to another group folder, the recordings names start over, and you find yourself with IDENTICAL named files in different folders. Again, really poor file management.
4) there is not enough gain on the recorder, recording ambiences, you have to turn up the mics all the way to get really usable gain. My little Sony M10 has way more gain and is thus much more usable in a way.
5) battery life is nowhere near advertised. I'm getting around 7 hours of use on a set of batteries. This is fine, good enough for me, but nowhere near the advertised level.
6) the wind protection that it comes with is abysmally inadequate outside. Even with a furry wind cover, the recorder is VERY susceptible to wind noise.
7) it's also very prone to handling noise. Any movement of the hand tends to record a 'bump'. What a drag. We'll see if the shock mounted H5 mics are any better.
But still it's a promising recorder. If you were recording music indoors, then it might be the perfect recorder for you.

Creating EXIF tags (TiffOutputField) the right way
Joakim Knudsen <joakim.grahl <at> gmail.com>
Hi List! I'm working on an Android app, where I want to read and write "EXIF tags" to JPEG files on the device. Sanselan 0.97 seems to work perfectly, although it's a bit complicated to work with EXIF tags/directories. The specific tags I'm interested in, is EXIF_TAG_USER_COMMENT and EXIF_TAG_IMAGE_DESCRIPTION. According to the documentation I could find, UserComment is of field type "undefined", whereas ImageDescription is of field type ASCII. http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/tifftags/privateifd/exif/usercomment.html http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/tifftags/imagedescription.html What's the proper way of creating those tags, wrt. charset etc? I want as wide as possible character support (æøå etc). I find different discussions online, with different advice. Seems two constructors are going around, where the simpler one does not deal with charset/encoding at all. This one uses the .create method: String textToSet = "Some Text æøå"; TiffOutputField exif_comment = TiffOutputField.create( TiffConstants.EXIF_TAG_USER_COMMENT, outputSet.byteOrder, textToSet); while this one uses the standard constructor: byte b[] = ExifTagConstants.EXIF_TAG_USER_COMMENT.encodeValue( TiffFieldTypeConstants.FIELD_TYPE_ASCII,(Continue reading)

Cognitive dissonance describes the ability of the human brain to hold contradictory beliefs simultaneously. A version of it seems to run through investing public at the moment. At once, financial assets are reviled while there is a frenzy to get in on the Facebook FB -0.072% Facebook Inc. Cl A U.S.: Nasdaq USD124.91 -0.09 -0.072% /Date(1469818891328-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 25330667 P/E Ratio 60.02884615384615 Market Cap 357546932519.531 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1746120 More quote details and news » (ticker: FB) initial public offering. How can that be reconciled?
The easiest way is to refute the article of faith held by efficient-market theorists -- that investors are rational calculators of all relevant information and set prices accordingly, at all time and at all places. As years pass, I see less and less evidence of rationality among humans (perhaps inspired by the presence of a teenager in our household.) And if anything, Washington seems to act like the ultimate high school, with cliques standing off from each other while a fiscal disaster looms.
The revulsion expressed by the investing public has been apparent and has been discussed previously here ("When Will Main Street Return to Wall Street? Don't Hold Your Breath" and "Fed's Repression Meets Investors' Revulsion".) Investors continue to yank money from equity mutual funds while stampeding into bond funds with yields paying a pittance.
Based on fund flows, investors want safety (or the illusion of same, given bond funds can lose value readily) along with income. It would appear they want no part of the risk of stocks, which they've seen crater twice in the last 10 years, first in the dot-com debacle in 2000-01 and then in the near-meltdown in 2008-09 from the collapse of the mortgage and housing market.
But there is a clamor for the initial public offering of shares of Facebook the likes of which hasn't been seen since the dot-com hysteria of the end of the last century. The offering has been boosted some 14% in terms of its anticipated price, based on the mid-point of the current anticipated price range of $34-$38 a share, up from $28-$35 previously. In addition, the size of the offering has been expanded 25%, to 421 million shares, making for a $15 billion offering at the mid-point of the anticipated pricing range.
Even with the expanded offering size, it's unlikely the individual investors clamoring for shares will get the allotment they desire. That's even with the effort to democratize the IPO, adding online broker E*Trade Financial (ticker: ETFC) to the underwriting group led by Wall Street blue bloods Morgan Stanley ms -0.13894663894663895% Morgan Stanley U.S.: NYSE USD28.8199 -0.0401 -0.13894663894663895% /Date(1469818893579-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 5155751 P/E Ratio 13.26958525345622 Market Cap 55353481170.6543 Dividend Yield 2.7782601146032295% Rev. per Employee 625494 More quote details and news » (MS), JP Morgan Chase jpm -0.0078003120124804995% JPMorgan Chase & Co.

According to various reports, there is a significant contrast between individual investors and users of Facebook for its IPO and a more measured response of institutional pros. As Barron's Andrew Bary wrote, Facebook shares were projected to fetch 70 times earnings and 18 times revenues -- before the anticipated price range was increased. By contrast, Google (GOOG) trades at 15 times anticipated 2012 earnings while Apple aapl 0.0047920260686218135% Apple Inc.

Clearly, rational investors aren't driving the frenzy for Facebook. But the similarity to the hysteria that accompanies a lottery drawing as the jackpot builds is palpable. "You gotta be in it to win it" goes the pitch, and folks drive across state lines to queue up to buy chances that are the longest of long shots.
It would appear the same lottery-playing attitude has returned for the Facebook IPO, at least among frenzied individual investors clamoring to get in on the deal without regard to the price, valuation or even knowing what that means. It's also unlikely that these Facebook fans are aware or care that their demand for more shares was being accommodated by insiders looking to cash out during the frenzy.
Nor is it likely that it matters that shares of the companies they also like -- such as Apple and Google -- are off 15% and 6%, respectively, from their highs even though they have hugely more attractive valuations. Or that a once-hot IPO, such as Groupon grpn 0.04106776180698152% Groupon Inc.

It's one thing to throw a few bucks into office pool to play Mega-Millions. But there are anecdotes of parents seeking to put their kids college funds into the Facebook IPO. You've got to wonder how many of those desperate for a piece of Facebook see it as a way to pay down their student loans.
For the longer term, it's not clear that the Facebook IPO will change the disaffected attitudes of individual investors. Or even that they will want to get in on other big debut offerings, as did the IPO punters of the dot-com era who always were hoping to score with the "next Netscape" or "next Yahoo! yhoo -0.7917964693665628% Yahoo!

Or that Facebook bulls know the history of these once-hot companies.
For this crowd, it's all about just one thing, scoring Facebook shares, which are almost sure to pop Friday when they begin trading. After that, let's see if they're convinced that long-term investing is the road to wealth.

Today's Featured Building: Harperley Hall
Harperley Hall is also known as 1 West 64th Street as the main entrance in the light court faces that way. The United States Postal Service regards this building as 41 Central Park West. No matter how it's referred to this building is a fine example of Arts and Crafts style of architecture.
It stands only 12 stories and has 85 apartments within its walls, although it has only 76 apartments when it opened. Various combinations were formed by owners throughout the years. Interestingly, the building attempted to become a cooperative in 1941, unsuccessfully. It was then converted to a rental instead. It was reconverted to a co-op in 1983 and remains so today.
It stands across the road from Central Park, which may possibly be the most famous urban park in the world. The neighborhood of Lincoln Square is also home to the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, as 16.3 acre parcel of land housing 29 world class performance venues, and it is just a block from Harperley Hall.[1]

Marriage license problems: California couple learns marriage WASN'T legal 48 years later
- Norma and Bob Clark of Redlands, California, were married in 1964 in the company of close friends and family
- The couple now in their seventies recently discovered that their marriage had never been legally recognized
- Mr and Mrs Clark remarried this month in the company of their original maid of honor and junior usher
A California couple now in their seventies were given a big shock as they were getting their paperwork together in case one of them passed away.
The person at their local county records office told them their marriage from 48 years back was never legally recognized because they had no marriage license.
Norma and Bob Clark of Redlands, California, had their second marriage this month to make sure all paperwork was properly accounted for.

Second wedding: Norma and Bob Clark (on the left) were remarried this month after discovering their original marriage in 1964 was never legally recognized.
Big oversight: The pastor who married the couple 48 years ago apparently never returned their marriage license to the county record office, where it would have become a marriage certificate
The two first wedded on August 29, 1964, in the company of close friends and family.
But the pastor who married the couple apparently never returned their marriage license to the county record office, where it would have become a marriage certificate, according to the Redlands Daily Facts.
The couple recently sent $20 to the San Mateo County Hall of Records to retrieve a copy of the certificate, but there was no record of their ceremony from 48 years ago, they said.
'I couldn't find it, and couldn't find it for a reason, because it wasn't there,' Mrs Clark later told NBC News.
Marriage certificates must be filed within two years of the ceremony, the Clarks soon learned, and they were told they would have to register their wedding in San Bernardino County to make their marriage legal once and for all.
So Mr Clark went to over to the San Bernardino County Hall of Records to remedy the situation.
'I just went in there thinking I could just do it, and she said, "No, no, you have to have witnesses,"' he said.
'Well, you know most people at our wedding are dead. If we had waited a couple more years, we would have been in trouble.'
Not there: The couple sent $20 to the San Mateo County Hall of Records to retrieve a copy of the certificate, but there was no record of their August 29, 1964, ceremony
Bureaucratic rules: Marriage certificates must be filed within two years of the ceremony, the Clarks learned, and they were told they would have to register their wedding in San Bernardino County to make their marriage legal
Déjà vu: Mrs Clark's sister, Deanna Silvestri, and her brother, Bill Thrall, rejoined them for their second wedding to serve as witnesses of both ceremonies.
Fortunately, the Clarks had their original maid of honor and junior usher -- Mrs Clark's sister, Deanna Silvestri, and her brother, Bill Thrall -- visiting for the holidays.
The four of them, along with others, were finally able to make the marriage official.
Alexander, the Clarks' son, attended their second marriage.
'My sister and I, we just kind of joked that we didn't have to throw them a 50th anniversary party anymore,' he said.
Norma and Bob Clark met as students at Santa Fe State.
Ms Clark was studying there to receive a degree in arts while Mr Clark was studying to get his master's degree in sociology.
The two met while Mr Clark was giving a report, he told the Redlands Daily Facts. He said that Norma immediately caught his eye.
'I thought she was kind of cute,' he said.
This year alone, 30 other local couples have run into the same problem as the Clarks, according to the San Bernardino Country Hall of Records.
The couple say they now have some advice for other married and soon-to-be married couples:
Make sure your marriage license exists.
Laughing it off: Ms Clark said friends in their town had teased the couple, asking when the reception would be
