To create a second brand is a whole distinct story though ;- )

To kill a brand is the most stupid thing ever any time at any rate, always. These people never learn. If something makes the human being to be stupid other than the human race extermination is this thing. A change is far to be humans killing human things. No notion at all for what capital means. - EAG :- )

I am all pro small devices... BTW currently in love with the (sharp) 8K 24p AcePro without mention some usual handy simple tricks to make it closer to a full camera experience so, why not smartphones and alike? ; ) The fact stands though, no matter what: Is there a much more significant experience that the pleasure impact other than handling a real camera with a lens attached and full control through a lens ring? Now once again, Samsung. Pity they had abandoned the way (forget the British blonde and focus on the leftover as myself these days collecting a few of those glass marvelous pieces plenty of technology : ) camera users could find the pleasure to hold a lens and discover how it is everything connected with organic form factor shooting much more than just point and shoot. After all, the writer makes the words as much as exquisite cuisine distinguishes from fast food. Who like me loves or knows how to appreciate an Italian ice cream or Michelangelo Antonioni as for instance, knows very well what I'm taking about ;- )

; ) Win98... LOL I see you've scrolled down the page, very well : D hey I had already posted one before along this thread earlier (where's yours? ; ) https://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic/43645-selfies/ Among a few other trying to put this environment much friendly than an anonymous online corner...

Not the best of the news we would like to hear anyway, here is a fresh first review...

Same impression going on here... Looks funny the first footage seen over here is not from a studio setup! LOL Looks like they should have trading names between both models instead : D Curious to check it accuracy too... ; ) Seems this one is what the other one has missed to be, size and convenience ;- )

Here is now for finishing funds: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/make-believers/murder-mystery-romance-the-orange-of-daydreams/description

Among many other new goodies for sure, looks like sweet to have on set: https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/9/24030378/asus-zenscreen-fold-oled-ces-2024

Didn't test the 2.5K hack yet. I know of a supplier to sell them for rather cheap... : ) Anyone can write me in private just for the case to be interested to buy 1 or the 7 units in stock! :- )

This camera model has arrived to my hands because of the 3D feature going along 45mm f/1.8 and fell immediately in love for the retro look and form factor. Love its small size. The 1.6x crop of the 4K mode doesn't bother me at all when there are good wideangle zooms you can add there such as Tokinas 11-20mm f/2.8 or my 11-16mm f/2.8 (PL mount mod). I didn't! LOL ;- )

Interesting comparison... to show how good this tiny device is:

But if I will tell you that I had to resist to 7x NX500 units all in a once just yesterday... in the same bundle. Will you believe me? You can. And I've already bought a couple of them before! LOL But I've tried to find reasons to buy different focal lengths samples of NX mount glass just to follow... : D Disclaimer: Love the videos of this guy... :- )

It's a bit like a blanket... if you push one side, the other one will end undercovered LOL ; ) Maybe 'cause of that I bought a couple of Zenfone 7 Pro devices with their retractable camera. Overheating and much of a distraction a smartphone is, are a PITA anyway. The AcePro will give it a try. I wonder how those Beastgrip glass add-ons will work out. That anamorphic adapter in both 1.33x and 1.55x versions look like sweet, though ;- ) I wonder about this:

You need to click that link up there to find my "big arms" if any ; ) to hold that thing... : D Now go back there and take a look on the " t-e-r-r-i-b-l-e " stuff they are able to extract from there... Or better call it terrific?! Well, I end confused! LMAO ; ) But you need to watch it to begin with, as usual, buddy ;- ) The toys these guys invent nowadays... And so lovely to think a hard case is still a hard case, isn't it? LOL : ) That said, you know what ideas that Beastgrip (BTW as disclaimer, I am customer of them) outfit gives to me? The 37mm thread to couple to the AcePro before or as alternative to a Back-Bone release and extra glass use from either lens adapters, filters, suchlike :- ) A mobile phone is still a mobile phone. Maybe iPhones are less phones than the leftover but personally I've found them to provide a good fun for a ride but when overheat they are just a brick... In any case, when not, you can obviously forget them as communications device if you're using them for something else other than its primary use. Because a camera is not a phone. There are many times you won't have any other device with you and the best camera is the one you hold with you in your hands when needed. It doesn't exist that, only a camera : ) You buy a system, not a camera. Full of many lenses and so on. A camera looks a camera. I give you an example, no, two. June 29, 2023. Public event. People don't like to be shot. Law is at shooter's disposal. Public place in that jurisdiction means consentment for acquisition. Its usage is something different, in any case no one can impede you to shoot in any way other than when start to threat the camera crew. January 1, 2024. Identical episode. In the beginning, only because of the capture devices used, people in a public event had no idea they were filmed. So, spontaneous footage with people dancing and so on was possible to gather and gather. Until the moment, people realize where the cameras are. End of fun. End of good footage. Here are two examples where the PRO device is the one capable to still produce footage in the memory card or any other storage location. Get the idea? This means a lot to those involved in the field. The point is the technology is there. These people of Back-Bone, Beastgrip and so one, they are solid players to really help the independent film communities. Playing the part of the film crews twenty years ago doesn't help at all, just for the sake of the art and this craft, if not anything else :- ) Speaking of devil...

https://youtu.be/ZSahjw0yFLA?t=203 No idea how it works for you but to my book, this is far to be too little... :- )

Have you ever watched this one @mercer? Your face! : ) And simply one of the loveliest pieces ANYONE can EVER watch on the screen! End of the story. So I hope this may serve as definitive word on the responsibility you have as creator, no excuses, you're much more than a writer and... period ; ) EAG :- )

I don't doubt but must tell you it is the less important take to get my attention to ; ) Well, I confess, I love small toys even those called or labeled as PRO to sell or be used for real outcome on set : ) Comes to mind those usual old lists BBC approved, today more prone to have a different name on the customary Netflix approved picks for acquisition : D

This is becoming much more interesting each day... Here's such an irresistible anamorphic route which touches everything... 1.33X Anamorphic Lens adapter (on budget) and no less, some other infinite roads apparently unexpected ones over here... definitely among a few of you : ) No love about these thingies gets you nowhere... if so, I don't know what cinema is anymore, really ; ) - EAG

Rather true... : ) And the price of such camcorder wouldn't end under the $2K mark either ;- )

This is the fine example of a juicy thread ; ) Pity we cannot express all the feelings we have towards what we read. A special mention though to a couple among my favs now @QuickHitRecord@kye despite to never undersestimate the contribution of everyone of you... : ) I think it's one of the flaws here when people tend to neglect any of the voices heard. Every simgle one of you always have something to bring for our lives, so take care of each one of you. Your milestones, presence, daily life, even your beloved ones and part of your being, expressed in your stories posted in these lines, reach some other people here. Maybe not everyone but the ones to count. I believe a bit more of love and compassion for the other one is never enough either. To read this or that had this or that misfortune is something we should meditate about and feel sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings of others, as well share their achievements and joy with zero envy. As much as possible. Even though how human this flaw is, unfortunately. - EAG

LOL I should also have written "at same time" or my 5 minutes window for editing is not available anymore to express it just fine ; ) BTW I guess we had no more than 1 hour to edit it here before. And short posts as aim are actually the reason for that change today ;- )

I think it's a typical case of that Niels Bohr's quotation set (I | II | III) where both of you can be accurate TBH :- )

EDIT -- I should have written expectations in life instead, rather than something which can be confused by life expectancy... LOL In any case, you get the meaning of that anyway. Numbers speak volumes in fact : ) No need for much else :- )

I know it's not my 1st DLP love nor a LG CineBeam choice of other fellows over here such as @BTM_Pix but the fact is now you can buy it for a third of before when a quarter of century ago was a dream for 64x less resolution to cost 20x more, literally ; ) Which means a difference of 1280x : X Only to those who haven't had the chance to realize how critical the gap has been fulfilled since then... No need to be depressed if life expectations don't meet the standard of your dreams if that's the case of anyone of us to read this : ) Get one for 500 bucks : D and you can only end just fine ;- )
