Aaron I'd be all over those developers, they released some really buggy software and sold it to you guys. I've had issues with opening my own profile let alone others, searching members names, still have issues with changing the theme, double posts and/or PM's, opening the link to view recent/unread topics, searching some topics, and it seems like another issue or two that I can't think of at the moment. Previous versions never had these kinds of issues, it's gotta be aggravating to you guys.

Exactly why I was hoping Samsung would stay in the camera market. The tech they make for their phones applied to an APS sensor would be the bomb. Also part of the reason I think long term the winner is going to be Sony or another tech company to eventually own the removeable lens camera market

So if you cell phone has a crop factor of 8 (no idea what it is but I would guess even more) you get to multiply that great under 2 fstop by a HUGE number So yeah, phones are not good at all in low light

Sensor size on the phone is TEENY, gathers shit for light Your Rebel has a 1.6 crop. If you put your 70-200 on it the FL will go to 1.6*(70-200) or 112-320mm and the light gathering goes from 2.8 to 2.8*1.6 or 4.5. Depth of field of the lens is not altered at all, you may perceive it differently though since you have to move to get the same picture in the field of view thus changing your overall dof as it is based not on the lens but its position to the target you are shooting. 1.8 on an APS is equivalent to 2.8 on a FF. If you have a sensor that has the equal noise curve the light capabilities should be within some reasonable minimal uncertainty. I used a lot of assumptions there, but just trying to explain how it works not be uber specific.
