家园 【重要通告】关于数码相机的初始感觉

昨天,也就是9月30日,本人购买了人生第一台数码相机。此前,关于数码相机的种种传说,在下也从不少使用者眉飞色舞的叙述中窥之一二,但始终报着狐疑的眼光犹豫不决,主要是对数码能否真实还原色彩、细节的能力表示怀疑。各种各样的资料、专家的建议、普通色友的使用心得也看了、听了不少,但始终未迈出这一步。但随着我电脑的更新、上网的时间增加,电脑和网络所给我的丰富色彩和内容、数码产品所带来的便捷与高效,使我对数码产品,尤其是数码相机的有了新的认识,特别是今年暑期与一干好友外出旅行时的感受极大的刺激了我。同行者中只有我还扛着三角架、端着传统的机械相机,而朋友们却人手一台数码相机,虽然大小不同,价格各异,但却有一个共同点,那就是拍完了立即就能知道结果的便捷,满意作品可以留下,失败的立即删除,这种快捷与高效决非传统相机所能比拟。而我必须要忍受照片冲洗完成前等待和期盼,然而最关键的是冲引的成本问题,胶卷加冲印,积少成多,一年下来的确是一笔巨大的开销,然而有了数码相机,这一切都变的如此简单与快捷。

终于,这一切使我下定了决心,必须要上数码了。

两个月来,我一直在琢磨,到底是买民用的傻瓜数码,还是准专业的单反数码,两者之间的价格差异也很大,至于品牌,因为用惯了尼康的产品,所以也无须多考虑。买傻瓜数码相机虽然小巧精致,价格相对便宜,但无法更换镜头,我手头一堆镜头也将面临束之高阁、退休养老的境地,实在可惜。单反机虽能更换镜头,但价格却相对贵了许多,对于我一个普通的工薪阶层是个考验。市面上尼康的单反数码相机有三四种,从三四万元的专业机型D1X、D2H到业余中高端的D100、D70,比较下来,D100更合适,价格也跌的比较惨,现在才一万出头,没有再多考虑,就是它了。一个星期前订货,终于在昨天拿到了这太梦寐已久的D100。

D100基于F80的机身,配有可竖拍的专业手柄是拍摄更加方便,除机器本身带有锂电池外,还可在手柄中加装六节5号电池,但两者不能同时使用。单机加手柄,接上镜头,整个机器乍一看酷似F5,握在手中分量十足,黑色的表壳透出一股森然之气。对我来说,最重要的是机身背后的那块液晶屏幕,那才是数码相机的重要标志,因为这小小的屏幕能提供给你太多的信息,使我能在第一时间知晓作品的优劣和主要的拍摄参数。随机附带的使用手册如同天书一般,有的我好细细研读了,机器本身功能很多,必须要经过实际操作才能了解掌握。

由于拿到机器已是傍晚,光线暗淡,也没了兴致。原指望今天是个艳阳天,可惜天公添堵作乱,阴沉沉灰蒙蒙的,躲在家里,照着说明书胡乱来了两张。第一个感觉就是快门,听惯了机械相机的咔嚓声,电子快门没有机械快门的震撼,显然异常轻快,机身抖动幅度也大大减轻。最大的方便看来还是增加了竖拍功能,再也不象以前那样别扭和勉强,画面也相对稳定许多。D100的像素达到630万,提供TIFF、JPEG、RAW三种存储格式,使用512M的闪寸卡,在JEPG模式下最多可拍970张。当然,一切的一切就是能在第一时间看到拍摄效果了,小小的屏幕显的如此可爱,但功能强大的让我心花怒放,所有功能一目了然,操作也很方便。将拍完的照片卸载到硬盘中,通过电脑屏幕看到是让我瞠目结舌的效果,其中没有任何人为加工,细节处也不会因为冲印而有所损失,完全的D2D,看上去就象是用富士反转片拍的,清晰、自然,兴奋和满足油然而生,真盼望天光放晴好外出一试。

由于刚刚上手,兴奋的不知所云,机器的功能也未尽开发使用,文中如有错漏之处还请诸位高人指正,并能提供建议,在下谢过了。

专业人士对D100的评价

Conclusion - Pros(优点)

Excellent resolution, good colour, tonal balance tends to be more 'contrasty'

Superb 3D matrix metering

Selection of output colour space (however JPEG files not tagged correctly)

Very nice ergonomics, good feel, balance and control layout

Wide selection of ISO sensitivities, all the way up to ISO 6400 equiv.

Low noise in JPEG images up to ISO 800, more noise visible in RAW converted images

Very fast operation, instant power up and no delays in menus or playback

Excellent auto focus, works well even in low light, AF assist lamp

Great selection of white balance options, fine tuneable white balance

Great flexibility, custom control over self-timer, meter power off times etc.

Nice 'loupe' style playback magnification

Good suite of software included (Nikon Acquire, View, View Editor, Camera Control)

RAW mode option, included 'Nikon View Editor' provides rudimentary RAW conversion

Remote capture software for studio setups

Full Nikon F mount lens compatible (better with D and G type lenses)

IBM Microdrive compatible

Built as a Digital SLR from the ground up

Easy to use, integrated digital / photographic controls and displays

Gridlines in viewfinder display

Top panel LCD illuminated

Nice LCD monitor cover included

Custom functions to control camera operation

Excellent battery life, light weight and small batteries

Lighter than the competition (D60, S2 Pro)

Superb value for money

Conclusion - Cons(缺点)

Lacking in-camera sharpening leads to 'soft' looking images (to keep noise down?)

Internal / external D-TTL flash metering problem

Higher noise levels from images converted from RAW through Nikon Capture 3

Nikon View Editor RAW conversion has limited functionality (NC3 required for full control)

JPEG files not tagged with correct colour profile when color mode II selected

No onboard PC Sync flash socket (req. optional adapter)

Awkward ISO selection on mode dial

Firewire would have been nice

Compressed RAW mode is almost unusable (40+ seconds to store)

Viewfinder view is smaller than 'higher end' D-SLR's

Overall conclusion(总评)

Nikon started the current D-SLR revolution. Yes, we saw digital SLR's before the D1 but that camera in particular was a breakthrough. It broke down price barriers and announced the fact that the traditional camera manufacturers were serious about producing their own digital SLR's. No longer tied to Kodak's digital back Nikon's designers produced a serious camera in a small(er), more robust body, excellent image quality and at a price which turned the D-SLR world on its head.

Since then Nikon has built on the D1 design with the D1x and D1H, but at the same time Canon decided it could go one better and introduced the EOS-D30 at the end of 2000 pushing price levels even lower and just teetering on the brink of the lucrative 'prosumer' end of the market. D-SLR's were coming to the masses.

So here we are, in 2002 with no less than four new high resolution digital SLR's, the first three of which are now making their way into end users hands. The most amazing thing is that we're looking at six megapixel digital SLR's at or around the US$2,000 mark. Pretty stunning when you consider Kodak were selling six megapixel D-SLR's for $16,000 as recently as August 2000.

Nikon's D100 was a response to the Canon EOS-D30, and obviously had to include a resolution hike knowing where the market was heading this year (six megapixels). Nikon's designers once more should take a lot of credit for producing a superbly well designed camera. Ergonomics, balance and control layout are excellent, the D100 feels both professional enough to be used on the most important days, yet small and light enough to be taken out on the most casual outing. Build and finish quality are second to none, you really are getting $2000 worth of camera.

Performance is also very good, power up times are instant, this means the camera will always be ready for your shot, menus and playback feel snappy and there's never really a time you find yourself waiting for the camera. Continuous shooting performance is good if not quite as good as the EOS-D60's double buffer (but we're really splitting hairs here).

The D100's feature set is also excellent, the provision of selectable colour space shows that Nikon takes the D100 very seriously, despite the price level this camera can be used by almost any type of user. Custom functions provide control over almost every camera feature, you can select a self-timer of 2, 5, 10 or 20 seconds, enable mirror anti-shock, enable or disable noise reduction, change the EV step level or even change how long the meter display stays on. There's plenty here for the shutterbug.

Image quality is also excellent, good colour and metering, nice tonal balance (if sometimes a little 'contrasty', this can be modified using the tone setting). I found the camera's internal sharpening to be too much on the soft side, this left some images looking soft at 100% view, a quick check against an equivalent RAW shot shows what the camera is capable of. This may be the only weakness in what is otherwise an excellent camera, very well built and offering superb value for money.

Highly Recommended

So which one should I buy? A question I get asked several times a day, and I wouldn't like to say. In a new addition to my reviews (after the amount of feedback I normally get) I've added a link to a specific forum in which you can discuss the review or ask me specific questions which I've not answered in these pages.

家园 在下先谢版主回帖、加精之恩.........

可惜在下是个英盲,西文认识我,我不认识它们,这么长的文章在下是一个字也没看懂。兄台若有什么使用心得可以用中文告诉我吗?兄台见笑了。

家园 D100专家评价不错,用户们的反馈也很好。看来你是没有买错!

国庆节快到了,给我们多拍几张上海滩的好照片!!!

家园 我也很想出去拍两张........

就在我写完帖子,传完照片后,外面下雨了。不知道后面两天天气如何,一旦天光放晴我就.....,我也急啊,可这老天不帮忙。

家园 俺是佳能帮的,除了冷笑就没别的说的了

买个EOS 20D多好~~~

D100淘汰在即,兄台真有雅兴呢。

先做AF精度测试吧,哼哼哼哼

家园 两家人不说一家话........

佳能和尼康孰优孰劣争了也没结果,只要色友们拍的顺手,用的开心就好。关于F80的AF对焦精度么,手头没别的机器,没法比啊,早些时候的相关技术测试显示F80的对焦精确、快速。至于与其他机器的差别,我这样的菜鸟,肉眼凡胎,实在难以分辨。兄台若有心得还望赐教,也好让我这菜鸟开开眼,长长见识。

家园 好说好说,测AF精度这个事儿还是两家通用的

自己找把尺子,有毫米刻度的,成四十五度角前后方向放在几米开外。当然要能看到那尺子上的刻度咯。

然后准备三角架,良好的光线,把你的镜头打到最大光圈,分别用各个对焦点对准尺子上某一个刻度(称之为零刻度好了)进行拍摄。

然后检验拍下来的照片,因为是最大光圈,所以应该只有焦点附近是清晰的,其他部分就该模糊化了;看看这样照下来的照片,最清楚的部分,是不是你对焦时候的零刻度,就知道你的相机AF功能是不是有偏移了。

如果有偏移,你可以看到清晰部分的中心,不是在你所试图对准的零刻度,而是偏前或偏后一些,这就说明你的相机配这个镜头,出现了跑焦现象。偏前多少,偏后多少,都要记下来。然后换一个对焦点进行下一组测试;

你要有N个镜头,分别测试之。

据我所知D100和俺们家的10D,是最有可能出现跑焦现象的。

俺们佳能家,出现跑焦现象,可以拿着机身和镜头去找佳能,让他给咱免费调节;

不知道你们N家如何了~~~~~

家园 老兄啊,您就直接说用景深测试AF精度不就可以了吗........

D100采用的是F80的对焦系统,而F80的对焦精度是目前市面上所有AF相机中最精确的,速度也是最快的。

至于佳能的售后服务可能尼康没有,也许是我没听说,但无论如何还是羡慕佳能用户有这样周到的服务。总的来说,市面上用佳能的多,尼康的少,看看各种重要场合的记者用的清一色都是佳能机器就知道了,还是兄台有战略眼光啊,在下眼拙,目光短浅,兄台见笑了。

家园 大意不得大意不得

众所周知,D100和10D是DSLR开始普及的先驱。

当初都以为这两款机器不会也不该有对焦问题,结果偏偏是他们两兄弟,都被先后报告发生了问题。

原因还真就是因为他们使用了FSLR原装的对焦模块......

我们知道,DSLR的传感器相当于FSLR的135胶片,但在D100和10D上,传感器的大小要远比135胶片小不少,所以要发生焦距转换的。现在普遍认为,这个过程不是想象中那么简单的,所以才会出现同一台机身配不同镜头就会有聚焦有的清楚有的不准的现象,也才需要一个一个镜头地侧试才行。

到了最近,佳能家也好,尼康家也罢,都为DSLR重新专门设计对焦模块了,以避免这样的问题。

家园 恭喜恭喜,好象LENS很好的样子哦

您住西区??

家园 那里是西区啊.........

家住东北角的杨浦区,上海最贫穷、最落后的一个区。

镜头还凑合吧,成像质量还可以,但存在比较严重畸变,而且还是浮动光圈没今天天气实在糟糕,灰蒙蒙的,等过两天有太阳了出去拍两张。

家园 这么专业!

用这么专业的,腐败呀!

我用Olympus C-700 Ultra-zoom, 已经几年了,感觉还不错。

家园 禀皇上

俺觉得,同样的机器,这个价格昨贵了2000?

哈,搞笑的?

家园 握手握手,我才给父母买了个佳能A80,我自己也是用EOS

不过,皇上也有皇上的理由,最主要找到自己喜欢的。我觉得中低档位,佳能的表现非常突出,如果是中高档,则有不少选择。
