I think the review is probably fair in it's technical conclusions (and it is currently most definitely overpriced in the UK at $1400 for the body). However, you've hit the nail on the head. I don't think the reviewer is a photographer at all. He is a tester of gadgets and applies the same methodology to every gadget that comes his way. I don't care for the pixel peeping approach. I'm much more interested in how a camera handles in real life situations. How the images look when printed out. I'm more interested in an experienced photographer giving his subjective description of colour and contrast than an objective analysis of chroma noise at ISO1600.
