  1. I find that people who complain about politcal correctness are usually the ones who want free reign to be racist, sexist or derogatory with no repercussions. Whenever I see someone bemoaning our PC world on Facebook, it's usually right after they've been called out for saying something along the lines of 'let's bomb the whole middle east.' If you need to put down others for the sake of 'comedy,' you're probably not a very inventive comedian. You can be still be edgy and controversial without being an asshole.

  2. I love the irony here. You just called the man "an awful bigot". I thought you said we must refrain from offending and insulting people as you claim Clarkson is doing! A Hendrix without drugs would not have made great music. ​It is actually. It's all our own call as to what we say or don't say. Especially when it comes to artistic expression. You keep forgetting Clarkson was making a TV show in-character, and not using racial slurs on the street. He's never going to be a role model for children to look up to, a shiny white teethed Mr Nice. Problem is most of these supposably ideal role models are anti-freedom of speech whilst pretending to be the opposite, which makes them hypocrites. And when I have kids I don't want their role models to be humourless hypocrites who are incapable of taking a risk.

  4. Said by a couple... in another room... Reported in one of the worst newspapers in Britain... Without any evidence they were anywhere near the incident. I'd say people who believe such interviews from non confirmed on lookers, in dreadful newspapers should be ashamed, and are a problem with this world too. In fact, I bet you didn't even read the article, you are taking Andrew's spin on it... so it is 4th hand info.

  5. ​Very enlightening to read this from you, the administrator and owner of this site. I completely and wholeheartedly disagree with you. If you don't see the problem with any white person saying that word (yes : WHO says the word DOES matter), then there's very little to say. Even behind closed doors or without a black person in sight. Apparently to you it's OK to say it when there's no fear for the consequences. If Clarkson is the big guy you claim him to be, let him say it for comic effect in Brixton. And see what big guy he really is. You can't use a derogatory term like that like it's nothing and then be surprised people react when you try to laugh it off. This has nothing to do with political correctness, which seems to have become the cluster term to justify all kinds of bigotry.

  6. ? I have never said such a thing not here not in dpreview and to tell you the truth nobody else has either in this forum. You start imagining words. If anything I said that if IBIS is not as useful then there are plenty of better cameras and I agreed with Andrew that for landscape somebody should get a GH4. I reply to these forums because I am interested in getting the best out of this camera since IBIS is important to me. I have provided a test scene with the E-M1 and shared the settings that I used so we can all find out what this camera can do and what it cannot. So for example it will not be good to use for infinity type of shooting (I doubt if it is even better than E-M1 for that), but for close focus shots it provides adequate results (to me). I am camera company agnostic, I just use them as tools and currently there is no other tool that can do what I need better. I wish there was and I wish that either the E-M1ii comes with GH4 quality or the A7sii gets a better stabilization than A7ii or Canon comes with a sensor stabilized compact GH4 killer. You on the other hand: ​It seems that you are here to do just that. So go on with your bashing and ranting but please leave me out of it.
