Nikon D850 High ISO performance for wildlife and Astrophotography

Purchase Nikon d850

A quick brief overlook at ISO performance for the new Nikon D850. It seems its cleaner for wildlife around 400-800 ISO than my d750 but noisier for astrophotography around 2500. A bit strange, it could just be the difference is resolution though.

Canon vs Nikon, who makes better lenses?

Canon and Nikon are both known for their excellent line of lenses or glass but who makes the better glass? In my opinion, it really depends on which focal range you are shooting at. In the 35-100mm section, I prefer Canon while in the 200+mm section, I prefer Nikon. In the super wide angle category, I think Rokinon has both of them beat. What do you think?

Nikon D610, Canon 6D vs Iphone X, Iphone X Overpriced?

The 256GB version of the Iphone X is $1150 while you can get a cheap LG phone for $50 that has a 8mpix sensor and does all the things that a regular smartphone does. With the $1100 you save you could pick up a used Canon 6D or a Nikon D610 and have $200 left over for a lens, so is the Iphone X overpriced? Small mistake in the video: I-Phones have had Phase detect AF for a while now but the AF as far as I can tell and have used, still sucks compared to real cameras.

The main attraction for a Nikon (or Canon) Mirrorless Camera is their line of Full-Frame Lenses. Would Nikon to stupid enough to forego their biggest advantage over Sony. That doesn't make sense. They should adjust the F-Mount onto their mirrorless camera.
