The body needs to be good enough to be up to the task at hand.  Example:
Suppose I want to take an image of a flowers in a vase in excellent lighting.  The camera is on a tripod.  The subject is not moving (no "action" to capture.)  
In a situation like that, you basically have all the time in the world to frame up and capture that shot.  This shot isn't going to test the limits of what a camera can do -- any camera body would be fine.
If, on the other hand, you're shooting in very poor lighting, then a body that can handle high ISO senstivity levels while keeping the image "noise" levels low would definitely have an advantage.  If you're shooting "action" photography then a camera with a great focus system and a fast frame rate would be definitely have an advantage.
Since portraits tend to be posed and aren't "action" photography, the focus system and frame rate isn't usually critical.  You also usually get to control the lighting in portraiture rather than having to make-do with whatever lighting happens to be available -- so even the ability to shoot at very high ISO settings isn't actually very important (again... for portraiture.  For some other type of photography that might be really important.)
The new 70D will certainly be a more capable camera than the 650D.  
The 650D is part of Canon's "Rebel" series.  These are all entry-level bodies... the T3 being the low-end of the range and the T5i being the high-end of the "Rebel" range.  
The 70D is part of Canon's mid-range bodies... these are bodies that start to have the benefits of the pro bodies (e.g. the control layout on the camera is much closer to the pro bodies.)  
The big new feature on the 70D is Canon's new hybrid AF mode which is especially nice for shooting video.  The 70D also has basically the same focus system as is found on the Canon 7D (the 7D has a lot of optimizations which make it ideal for action photography).  It has a 19 point auto-focus system (vs. the 9 point system found on the Rebel bodies.)
Again... if you're subjects aren't moving then having a more advanced focus system isn't a big deal.
What would be a big deal for portraiture... is lighting gear.

  • Please Help me to Choose the best config to run forms on web

    Hi,
    I have started upgrading my application from Dev2000 1.3 to Dev2000 6i in order to deploy on web. I have few questions to ask
    1. I need to know which config is the best & fast to run my applications out of
         1. Applet
         2. IE50Native
         3. JInitiator
    2. For testing I have configured forms server in socket mode. When I am using JInitiator even after exiting the application from test terminal, "ifweb60.exe" process initiated due to this session remains running. It takes long time when I try to initiate the same application for second time. This problem is not frequent, but this has happened 4 times while testing. Could this be due to Pentium4.
    Thanks in advance

    Or else , what if i avoid EJB s completely and database access is done via JSP itself ?Ouch, no. JSPs are for presentation only.
    Or i have another option , that is , using JSP for the presentation layer and Servlets for database accessing.Wrong again.

  • Help me on choosing the best sound quality for my music on my itunes!!!

    I heard that AIFF Encoder is the best sound quality you can import your music into Itunes. On the settings for AIFF Encoder do you know what Sample Rate, Sample Size, and what Channel I should set it to? Should I just leave them on Auto? How about if I have a HDCD? What are your suggestions?

    I agree use Apple Lossless. Bizarrely it is also easier to share Apple Lossless with Windows Media Player than AIFF.
    I have my entire iTunes library in Apple Lossless and shared with WMP and also Media Center 2005. I can also use it in full lossless quality with Roku SoundBridge, Apple TV, iPhone, iPod, etc. etc. etc.

  • TS2646 Settings to record in on Canon HD Vixia HG20 for easy migration into iMovee'11 v.9.0.9?  It would be most helpful to list what the best possible settings are.

    So, what are the best settings to record in using Canon HD Vixia HG20 for easy migration into iMovee'11 v.9.0.9? 
    It would be most helpful to list what the best possible settings are.
    frame rate?
    format?  FXP?

    I suggest filming in 30P with this camera. That should be the MXP setting.
    You could also use 30i which would be the FXP setting.
    You will get the best results in iMovie by shooting progressive.

  • Choosing the best query

    Hi there,
    Can some one help me on selecting the best query from the following two queries:
    QUERY 1:
    select p.name, d.descr
    from table1 p, table2 d
    where p.cod_table1 = d.cod_table2(+) and d.dom(+) ='T';
    ID Query Plan
    0 SELECT STATEMENT Cost = 5
    1 HASH JOIN OUTER
    2 TABLE ACCESS FULL table1
    3 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID table2
    4 INDEX RANGE SCAN DDOM_DOM_FK                     
    QUERY 2:
    select p.name, (select d.descr from table2 d where p.cod_table1 = d.cod_table2 and d.dom='T') as descr
    from table1 p;
    ID Query Plan
    0 SELECT STATEMENT Cost = 2
    1 TABLE ACCESS FULL table1                    
    I'm a bit surprise about the explain result of the second query, because there is no reference to table2 access. What's happening ?
    Tks in advance for any tip,
    Helena.

    I've noticed that issue with the query plan for those types of querys (in 8.1.7. It may be better in a lter database).
    I think the queries will take the same time.
    However if you are basing a view on the query, the second would be better as the lookup table will only be accessed if the descr is selected from the view, and performance will therefore be better for queries not accessing the descr column.

  • This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

    This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

    If you're just reading them from email attachments, you can just open it to "view" the document.
    However, if you wish to do editing and work, you'll need an application. I use Documents to Go, but there are other versions that people are happy with - do a search in the App store for "office suite" or "word processing".
    The next challenge is getting docs back and forth. Doc2Go and others have their own ways to physically sync docs when connected to a computer; you can also email changed/revised/new documents from the iPad to yourself. However, I use a "cloud service" called DropBox that stores docs in the cloud (so I can get to them anywhere) - I paid for the Premium version of Docs2Go to allow that kind of syncing.

  • Tips For Choosing the Best Samsung Cell Phone Battery

    It is difficult to imagine the world would be like if you do not use a mobile phone! We have become so dependent on the use of Samsung mobile phones, we will be panic, if we mistakenly forgot at home. The Samsung mobile phone is a key part of most people's lives, and get them up every minute of friends, family and business partners.
    Taking into account a new Samsung mobile phone purchase, but also consider the Samsung mobile phone battery. Here are some suggestions to help.
    More standby time and talk time, you should choose a Samsung cell phone battery with high capacity. However, when you select a high-capacity Samsung mobile phone battery, there will be a heavier weight. A bigger Samsung cell phone battery, cell phones can not enter the cell phone pocket, or protectors. If you plan to travel a lot with the phone, which could lead to a problem, your phone may not be easy to carry.
    Select the Samsung cell phone battery, lower cost, and may not be the best choice, quality. Make sure you ask if you buy a new battery or refurbished one, which is a key issue! Tips to find a renovation is the incredibly cheap price. Refurbished batteries may have old parts, it may not work as effectively as a new battery.
    Buy a new battery, you get a guarantee that if you have any questions? Remember, some just do not work, as long as expected. Usually Samsung phone manufacturers will provide a new battery only when it is purchased in a specified amount of time.

    Those are the ones that have been tested with Sims3...not that ONLY ones it works with.
    Like I said, pretty much any computer, as long as you don't go dirt bottom of the barrel cheap, will run the game. You just have to ask yourself how WELL you want it to run.

  • Please help me with choosing the Hardware for my new computer

    I am creating a new editing machine that i will be using After effect, photoshop, flash, illustrator, and 3ds max. I do a lot of 3d and 2d animation, video editing and graphic design.
    This is the system i am currently planing on building:
    CPU: intel core i7 2600k ( I will be overclocking it to around 4.8 ghz)
    Motherboard: Asrock p67 extreme6
    Memory: G.Skill ripjaws x series 16gb ddr3 1600 cas latency 7
    Graphics Card: Gtx 570
    Power Supply: Rosewill bronze series 1000w
    Hard drive: 4x Corsair F120 in raid 0
    Case: Bitfenix collosus
    Cpu cooler: Noctua Nh-d14
    I have a budget of $2500 for this computer. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on things i should change or would recommend a completely different build for my budget.
    Also i was wondering if the gtx 570 was a stupid choice and i should get a quadro 2000 instead. I dont do any gaming.
    One last thing, do 4 ssd in raid 0 help at all or should i just get 8 hard drive in raid 10, or should i spend less money on hard drives.
    P.S. I know that the the i7 2600k has been recalled but i am in no hurry to build this computer. Also feel free to recommend hardware that hasn't yet been released but will probably be out in the next 8 months.
    P.S.S All of the programs i listed are CS5.

    Agree with all from Todd, and some things I'd consider:
    Dual CPUs will pack more rendering punch, especially in your 3D work.
    Even though 16GB of RAM is generous, I'd consider more.  Remember the rule:  2GB for each CPU core,  plus some more for OS and other applications.  If you're running 8 threads/cores for rendering, 24GB would be optimum.
    While the hard drives will provide awesome performance in that config, it's a lot of money to spend on less than a terabyte of storage.  RAID 0 is also pretty volatile, so be sure to run a reliable and regular backup system.
    For my money, I'd probably use one good-sized SSD for a system drive, then 3 or 4 conventional (or hybrid SSD) drives for media storage, with a decent RAID controller. You'll get 3 times the storage for half the price, and still have quite zippy I/O speeds.

  • Advice needed on choosing the best SSD for 13-inch macbook 5,1.

    I'm thinkning about to upgrade my macbook. It's a late 2008 aluminum version. I want to replace the old HD with a nice SSD. I'm struggling to choose from the following two SSD.
      1. Crutial M500 (960G)  SATA III 6Gbps
      2. Intel dc s3700 (800G)
    I can get both of these at similar price around 300pounds just for this 2 days. But I don't know which would work the best on my macbook. Need advice please.

    Thanks for the link, unfortunatly there's no option for intel dc s3700.
    After seeing crucial M500's score there, I'm not that empressed. I heard that the Intel dc s3700 (800G) worth over 1000pounds, is it worth it just for the sake of getting the intel at a much cheaper price?  I don't know Why I've got the impression that Intel dc S3700 acturallly better than crucial M500.

  • Choosing the best processor for the tasks

    I am looking into purchasing a new mac pro to use as a server and am trying to select the best processor for task.
    I will have at least 20 clients. This will mostly be used as a file server. The team would like to be working on the server with Photoshop and AfterEffects files. What processor is best for this requirement?
    3.5GHz 6-core with 12MB of L3 cache [Subtract $3,000.00]
    3.0GHz 8-core with 25MB of L3 cache [Subtract $1,500.00]
    2.7GHz 12-core with 30MB of L3 cache
    What other kind of infrustructure should I invest in?
    Please note I will be opting for 64GB of RAM.

    The Mac Pro is really a very expensive server.  You are probably better suited with a Mac mini Server. 
    The Pro has two video cards you will never use.  The Pro has 5, 7, or 11 cores you will never use unless you are making this an AfterEffects render node.  The Pro has very little internal storage and no option for redundant internal storage.  The Pro is very expensive and is designed and marketed as a workstation (a powerful one at that).  The Pro is a unit that should be used by a user, not operating 24 hours a day and doing nothing for 16 of those hours.
    That being the case, a Mac mini with 16 GB of RAM is more than enough for a 20 person department.  Invest in a quality ethernet switch and good wiring.

  • Choosing the best BPM tool

    Hello,
    We are a small size pharmaceutical company with an existing SAP ECC 6.0 installation. Currently we do not have any BPM system. We are looking for the best possible BPM tool (cost considerations exist) that will
    - automatically create some graphical business process documentation using our live SAP system data
    - supports an eEPC or BPMN based documentation option that is managable by a team
    - is user friendly enough so that business and IT would want to cooperate using this tool when designing processes.
    Any viewpoint on the right tool? We only know Intellicorp's LiveModel + LiveCompare so far. We like it but want to hear about alternatives.
    Regards,
    Hakan

    You might like to search SAP's EcoHub for BPM tools.  This link should produce a number of results:

  • Choosing the best css system

    Hi all,
    we have webservers at two different data centers in different locations with completely different official ip subnetworks.
    One of our customer wants special redundancy. He asked us for load balancing, but with only one ip address or domain at his configuration (in the client software there could be no second/alternative target configured).
    So we thought about buying a css system and install it at our primary data center location. If the webserver at this location fails, the css should redirect the requests to the other data center.
    I know that this is no real load balancing situation, but we are looking for using the css for our webservers as real load balancer as well later.
    Some questions to this situation:
    - is the css system able to check the status of our "remote" webserver at the other data center (official ip address, no tunnels or dedicated lines between the two data centers)?
    - can we configure official ip addresses of the webservers "behind" the css system (something like: incoming request -> goto -> 212.59.xx.xx webserver1 or goto -> 217.5.xx.xx webserver2)?
    - we have ordered a ssl wildcard certificate for https that we will store on the css. Does this work or will the customer get warnings that the target system differs from the certificate system?
    The customer uses a client software that communicates with a special http interface on our webservers (no browser).
    Or is there a possiblity to do the routing and health checking of the webservers with cisco routers?
    Thanks for your help
    chasm

    Hi Chasm,
    One quick note on the ssl bit. If you terminate SSL at the CSS one thing to be aware of is that if your webserver at the primary location fails and the CSS then uses the "sorry server" at the backup location and that traffic goes over the Internet - it will be un-encrypted.
    One way to resolve this would be to deploy a CSS at the backup location that terminates SSL as well and then use a GSS to handle the domain requests. The GSS could then be configured to only send the IP of the backup site to clients if the primary was down. This would maintain encryption to each of the sites CSS.

Maybe you are looking for
