Michael and Brian are father and son, they are excellent rail
photographers. Your love of trains made me wonder whether you folks were related. Mike lives in Florida, not sure about Brian. Never met either, but I've seen their work. These two shots are of the same location in 1971 & 2007. Ashland Ohio.

What makes you feel that the Canon has better image quality?

The comparison I posted claims contrary. It isn't clear to me what they use for that claim because they do note that the Canon has more megapixals. Maybe it is a combination of the noise, color, and dynamic range?

I expect for me how I use the camera would be far more important than the technical differences between the cameras themselves. A more useful test would put both cameras in the hands of several randomly selected people each and evaluate how they are doing after say one month and three. That would encompass such things as how intuitive are the controls.

The comments on the comparison site get interesting. As with computers those who bought a particular option are staunch supporters of its superiority.

It is difficult to make multi attribute selections. Most people do better deciding on one thing that matters most to them and choosing on that basis. It could be the color, feel, or look of the thing, or even an affection for the brand name, instead of all those technical items. It is clear in this case that, as several have noted, both are highly capable of excellent performance.

Yes, most cameras save this information as part of the file. It's pretty easy to find the photo properties of your own photo. However, when uploaded online, it's not so easy to find that information, that's why I think it would be great to know that information just by looking at the photo.

Thanks for sharing the photo info. I love the train photos!

Hi, Dianne

In this case since you can download the photos posted in these discussions you can look at the properties for those files.
