    Dieser Anglizismus nimmt immer bedrohlichere Formen an!

    Da mir leider die doppelte Uplaod-Größe nciht zu Gebote steht, sind hier einige Kompressionsartefakte zu sehen (so nennt man das wohl?)
    In einem anderen Forum schrieb eine mir bekannte Fotografin zu dieser Kamera:
    What really counts at the end of the Day: Very impressive picture Quality and an unique stellar fixed Zoom lens without any problems with Dust on Sensor.

    - excellent build quality.

    - Loooong lasting battery.

    - Absolutly silent if You wish so.

    - no visible vignetting,

    - sharp also wide open in the corners,

    - flare very well controlled.

    - some barrel distortion at 24 ~ 35 mm is normal and can easily be fixed with PTLens (or similar tools).

    - Amazing colours, not the formerly oversaturated "Sony style"

    - low noise up to 400 ASA,

    - good dynamic range.

    - In RAW mode additional 1 stop in the highlights and up to 2 stops in the shadows dynamic range. very useful in contrasty or night scenes.

    you can use the RAW-plugin of PhotoShop CS2 (Version 3.3 at least) - easy to use, well integrated in the PS- workflow an amazing results. Don't install the included Software!

    - Easy to use timed exposure up to 3 minutes, the camera counts the seconds!

    Sony listened to the 7x7 and 8x8 users and improved some features, for example

    - timed exposure,

    - 2nd parameter Dial,

    - quick switch from playback to record mode,

    - focus push button in manual focussing,

    - exact flash exposure correction,

    - complete technical informations in the EVF/LCD, no more divided into different Screens

    - Grid lines for picture composing and architectural shots in the viewfinder,

    - overexposure warning via "Zebra mode", similar to "blinking highlights" from other brands

    - histogramm for all RGB channels.

    - very useful zoom range if you like archtectural, street, landscape, people fotographs

    - the AF is not so bad as some internet hype states

    - improved LCD/EVF

    - information board about important fotographic paramaters like exposure time, f-Stop, ISO, etc. under (and therefore outside) the preview pic in EVF/LCD

    This means also: If You are familiar with the 7x7 or 8x8 Sony cameras, you can use also the R1.

    The only camera with live histogramm and overexposure warning with APS sized sensor!

    A really impressive all in one tool.

    Problems
    - You will need a few days learning to use the camera if you are newbie or come from another brand.

    - Autofocus slow compared to DSLR.

    - Exposure bracketing limited to 1/8 scond or shorter.

    - No infrared remote control.

    - lousy software.

    - noisy compared to DSLR at 800 ..3200 ASA.

    - Pretty useless AGCS (automatic contrast correction) .

    - the bullproof laser autofocus of the 7x7 and 8x8 is lost

    - not a pocket or action camera.

    - buttons and dials are small, not easy to use with gloves

    - the LCD catches fingeprints, a transparent display protection is a must have!
