  1. Yeah, it's simply amazing! : ) I tried on mine (OnePlus 9 Pro), where says unsupported, even though it does a classy job with the stock camera, no idea why goes only up to 30fps and not 120fps then. Eagering to see your attempt :- )
  2. How many of you have used and how many of you have missed it? What's the beef? No ultimate fastest phone chip...?! ; ) I am using a €700 OnePlus 9 Pro Snapdragon 888 very successfully BTW ;- ) 25fps is not going now with the last version (8.0.7-beta2) since it says it is unsupported by my device, so I am using 24fps then. They should likely be pretty accurate on spot but bugs look like fixed, even along a beta version. And shutter speed is now possible to set up along ISO without any (variable and inaccurate) issues (from previous version since four days ago : ) We have now 1/48, go figure! ;- ) That is, pure and simple photography is finally possible on a smartphone! (you still have AF or how to lock it!) This is plainly the best software ever made for really mobile cinematography, period! :- ) I am fairly enthusiastic on this tool indeed : X https://github.com/mirsadm/motioncam/releases This requires a bit more of attention and support from y'all without exception or pick one: you're the last elitist on earth or you don't have a smartphone? ...or yet, no, I am not missing anything else on here : D
  3. I found this post there from @dreamplayhouse and I see this type of posts shouldn't be lost somewhere spread in the middle of separate threads strictly from cameras subforum only IMHO (why not to also pay attention to the 'footage' suborum too? BTW : ) hence the thread suggestion here ; ) so, follows reposted that contribution of this fellow of ours then, to begin with:
  4. That 4K 60p feature all included in such small form factor looks incredible, as we know the best cam is the one we can have at our side when the gap happens for the shot ; ) you might ask for an affiliate link because you've just given them now a new customer and a few others from my WOM for sure, thanks and kudos to your contribution on someone's else craft as usual, mate :- )
  5. Walter Murch is a legend : ) He was one of our heroes and a bible for the whole 3 years (+ 1 of professional internship) full-time graduation program at the Lisbon Film School and we had there some other masters even personally such as Carol Littleton only to mention another one :- )
  6. Even though, I don't refer exactly to the cinematography department but, why so much lovely pictures (at times)? If the content is repeatedly a continuous never ending déjà-vu of more the same, ad nauseam, to almost invariably make an intelligent guy or gal sleep? Blockbusters aka Hollywood barely get success to be beyond than a wider audience they need to be up. And this means to shorten the diversity of time and space the cinema is to be able to be understood by as many as possible. Seems a contradiction but it is rather the opposite ; ) This difficulty leads to nowhere or anything really valuable and... new. (EAG :- )
  7. Don't underestimate yourselves guys, the most part of hollywood stuff is plainly garbage (EAG :- )

  9. hey everything looks like familiar to me there... ; ) Parede beach (Lisbon), the land of an old fellow and house mate from my Law school period and very close where still lives another old partner in crime of mine as well where I lived a decade and a half ago... and yet, one of the most iconic locations of the Portuguese cinema (and where one of the James Bond's was shot half century ago BTW, the only one with Charles Lazenby as 007) : Very Portuguese faces indeed :- )
  10. Nicely put : ) The flickering shots are part of a test, I doubt they would easily be used in the final outcome to end to be screened (slowmotion as for instance is usually used under other premises : ) but this varies from production window to some other degree people are interested to fit their product ; ) The things have changed a bit since The Blair Witch Project to not say a year earlier with Festen and Idioterne... - EAG
  11. Without intending to be self-indulgent : ) but I guess one of my comments up there sums up very straightforwardly ; ) on the spot the whole thing in a balanced way too ;- ) Either on Brecht approach or suspension of disbelief all included :- ) Without mention the RED camera credits, to each its own... - EAG
  12. Nice readable and enjoyable conversation, thanks to the contributions of everyone :- )
  13. LOL Nothing better than starting the year to read your posts ;- )
  14. Man, loved your post, that's what makes sense to be here and feel you part of our lives! EAG :- )
  15. That's true : ) Because she's lovely, this doesn't mean she cannot be a good housekeeper too... or vice versa : D but as you say Don, well, what does our experience know? ;- )
  16. Man, film look is all about time (not colour space, resolution, etc.), i.e., shutter speed, people today tend to forget it : ) Reason why the "2021 cameras" smartphones are made by stupid and ignorant manufacturers' developers who don't understand a bit about what they're doing : X Once we're entering in 2022, let's hope one day this will change! ;- )
  17. Loved everything in that shot... Minute 28:49 -- take a look on that lighting! By the way and here's another shot (the thesis or antithesis as you wish of the whole Soviet period's collective when individuals emerge from) and another scene where sound is used not from frame but into the frame (Lenin defended the allied Bauman when he got pregnant the woman of a fellow and she hanged herself) over the children's realm. Calls to me more prone to be classified as masterpiece :- )
  18. Let alone, cinematography is definitely beyond lighting ; ) lensing calls for composition work and universe creation as you Marty fairly say, for sure :- )
  19. For sure : ) Got what he means, however, without mention that's a camera test for a certain look towards a film project to take off from there (this is promising stuff to hint what comes next), let's just take a look on this other one but not from RED's Komodo now: Not the same highlight rolloff a flary cinematography approach helps to extract the best from despite the distinct capture device. Average? Maybe yes or not depending on perspective ; ) just no other than from a skilled craftswoman anyway. The only thing to bother me but not much because rather acceptable for tests, it's a bit of flickering a little bit there and over there to dismiss, nevertheless, keep in mind they are motivated shots just not under controlled lighting :- )
  20. Loved the flary highlights both from the capture device matched to proper lensing skills and who rules the light beyond the tools, obviously (EAG :- )

  22. Pictures are the destination of cameras and glass. They didn't begin with bits and bytes. Here's the proof YouTube serves not only for garbage clickbait, here's one -- I tried to find it guess where: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolay_Bauman_(film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolay_Bauman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauman_Street,_Kazan
