Best COLOR SCIENCE: Canon vs Nikon vs Sony vs Fujifilm

I gave 1,500 photographers a blind poll and had them pick the image with the best color in several different scenes, including portraits in different lighting and outdoor photos. Which camera was the best: Canon, Nikon, Sony, or Fuji?

I dont consider myself a photographer, i consider myself a gear acquirer

My Canon has colors grounded in deep blackberry tones with shades of lemon, anise and cherry ... with a back pallet of oakiness. It is low in tannin producing a smooth silky quality to the final image reminiscent of under-exposed Kodachrome ...

The experts are the intermediates, and the intermediates are experts. The dunning kruger effect!

A blind test is correct. People are blinded by brand loyalty.

I told my Nikon he didn't win. He's really upset about it. Now I need to remove Dramatic Abberation also.

The design of your study is brilliant. My field—epidemiology—is all about structuring studies to ascertain risk factors and causes of diseases. You think like an epidemiologist! This is really, really good science. Congratulations on a superb, first class scientific study.

You should get an award for this research.

100% of participants believe they are in the 8%.

As a Fuji user i dont hate other camera brands. Heck, i love to use other brands too, learning their system and using them is a great learning curve for me. Also you should add the fact that many camera users can't buy many cameras because of this reason like me stick to one camera and fell in love with our only camera.

This is a great video, really shows that people are loyal to the brand, not the colour!

Mental note: Don't go round for dinner at Tony's. "Would you like a glass of wine?" … "Thanks, that would be lovely … Come on, Tony, put the blindfold away."

This is one of the best videos you have ever made. It's an older one and just by accident came back to rewatch it but independent of the topic and result of this video I just love the overall approach you take on gear in general. You just test, observe, throw the unfiltered information out there and always provide feedback on what you believe should be improved upon/changed. Very few youtube channels handle topics in this way.

This experiment/poll is absolute GOLD!

My takeaway from this video: If you put the Peak Design red/black thingy on top of a Sony, it looks like a Nikon if you squint!

[ottawamountainman]

As a scientist I have one thing to say: I love you Tony! Lol well done!

At 10:39 you said worst picture was taken Nikon Z7, but it was the photo taken by Fujifilm camera (image #1 in first set)

[MaksimYuryev]

Wow! So good Tony! I was shocked by the results just like you. I’ll be doing a video recording version of this. 👍👊

[cassiofonte]

You have done some great videos before but this one is an amazing work! Great insights, almost like a scientific dissertation! Congrats!

[isamadan]

Tony, thank you so much for the scientific test! However, I would be very interested to know which color science (brand) was chosen as best by the 8% of people that were consistent in choosing the best photo. Because those are the experts that I would love to know their opinion!! Please share that piece of information!!
