There are two sides to every argument. So no matter how well Nevin put it yesterday about not to pixel-peep just to tickle our curiosity, we all have curiosity integrated to us to be tickled every now and then, especially when a new camera sees the light of the day.
Today's treat is a peeper-friendly site, dkamera. It is a German site but you don't need to know the language for its highlight which is shown in the first photo above.
Go here and you'll land on the bildqualitaet (visual quality) page, where there are two pull-down menus for choosing the cameras to be compared for the image quality.
Underneath the pull-down menu, there are three selection buttons, namely, day-shot (tag), nigh-shot (nacht) and flash-shot (blitz). The pull-down windows for ISO and image format are self-explanatory.
So peepers will wind up with various combination of 100% crops below the camera mugshot for peeping. Clicking on the crops will bring you to the full-sized photo for browsing more freely.
The cameras in the database range from full-frame DSLRs to small sensor compacts.
Sometimes, killing time, tickling curiosity and being counter-productive can be fun. This is simply comparable to taking junk food. We can die bored and young without junk food, can't we?
