This blog is for my future and past info and reviews on various tech stuff….

Phones / Phablets	Compact cameras	Various tech stuff	Reviews	Resolution and Noise
Batteries and usage	PC & Code	Watches & bands	Math	Other stuff

Newer reviews can be expected to be ongoing projects, with minor additions or corrections.

Note: When I rate stuff, a 10/10 does not indicate perfect in an absolute academic sense, but as in (at least) as good as could be expected at the time, minor flaws allowed. For portable devices typically limited by the size and weight. Value for money also counts. An electronic device that got a high score in 2005, most likely would seem like pure trash ten years later….

• QWERTY for Iphone6

  I have for 4½ months been using cheap bluetooth keyboards for an Ip6, And I really hate Ios !!! (see review)

  At the least two versions are available through ebay, in the price range varying between £9-16 from different vendors.

• Superzoom and DOF plus TZ70 iZoom

  It should be remembered that there are no miracles in superzoom!

  And you should be careful on where your focus plane is, even if all in the frame to the human looks as ‘far away’.

  Crop of 30x zoom:

• Panasonic TZ70 vs FujiFilm F900EXR in lo light

  A compare of the low light abilities of these two cameras in extreme lo light conditions.
  versus

• Megapixel-craze and tiny sensors & lenses. Myths & Facts

  This is an attempt to replace some of the common myths, urban legends and misunderstandings with some facts.
  (last updated 20181103)

  There are at least three physical issues and one biological that are interesting:

  1) Rayleigh’s criterion and sensor width.

  F * √N < W , (N number of sensors in Mpixels, W in mm, red light F numerical aperture)

  

  2) The eye’s real life resolution

  Resolution beyond 1/12000 of viewing distance is pointless for most

  3) Thermal noise.

  Relative noise increases by 1/d, ⁽⁺⁾almost √n and √T, (N number of sensors in Mpixels, d sensor diameter, T in kelvin, i.e. °C+273.15)

  4) Effective pixel count

  The effective pixel count falls with the amount of light, the less the pixel size the worse.

  

  5) Stacking images

  Stacking can compensate, but can not perform miracles.

   

  6) Thickness of device versus sensor size
  

  The angle of light to the sensor edges binds max sensor size to thickness.

• Panasonic TZ70, Review

  Panasonic Lumix TZ70 (ZS50 in the US)

  Upgrade of TZ60 with larger/fewer pixels, RAW and better viewfinder, but removed GPS.

  This post is likely to be enhanced/edited over the next days and weeks

  Eske Rahn 2015-04-25

  Overall: Really satisfied. 10/10

  
  The only real competition today is the upcoming HX90V from Sony, that haven’t got RAW, and have pixels as small as the TZ60

  Overview

  The TZ60 took much beating due to the small pixels, And Panasonic answered that by increasing the pixelsize by a factor 150%, and thus reducing the pixelcount by the same to 12MP.
  This is an obvious upgrade from Fujifilm F900EXR, that are beaten or on par in all areas, less triffles.
  See my review of the F900EXR here. On which this review to some extend will be based.
  Practically the whole plus-list could be repeated, and most of the cons are not there!!

Blog in English (well sort of, bare with me, non-native…), a few earlier than 2010 are just blunt copies of the source texts in Danish – Google translate helps here….

Collecting of old stuff started May 2015. Entries are generally attempted dated with original stamps, even if they are somewhat updated since, several reviews have been ongoing ‘projects’.
