What, only 8bit output for A7s 4K with Atomos???

He is confident that 4K picture from this camera will satisfy all video profesionals. Well now even amateurs know how to pixel peep very well. We will see. :)

Time for Sony hacker is coming. ;)

And I thought (or was reading it long time ago) that our eyes can recognise way more shades of green than other colors therefore they put more green pixels on the chip. True / not true?

Quantel Edit

Bloom is teasing

Thanks. :)

This: "Below (click to enlarge to 2K) is a shot from the D16 which..." I would like to look at 2K pictures, but its not clickable... at least for me.

Enlarging of 2K frames doesnt work Andrew.

No footage to see. Vimeo is asking for password...

Oh I cant wait for another 8bit miracles from Canon.

Canon? LOL

Andrew I think that is you who should make an interview with this Nikon man Mr. Tetsuya Yamamoto. Starting direct dialog would be very refreshing because we share the very same passion for same thing and we finaly can get out from our trenches and dont feel like enemies anymore. ;-) http://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2014/02/14/nikon-qa-head-of-development-sees-interchangeable-lens-slowdown-as-an-aberr

You will see at NAB. Maybe they will show Sony 4K alfa.

Thanx Andrew.

According to HDwarrior ... "I can exclusively reveal that without a card in the camera you can take the camera’s HDMI output into an external recorder giving you 10bit 422" True / not true? HD + 4K or only HD?

90% I watch videos on my TV which I downloaded from Youtube, Vimeo or other web services in HD and I got way better quality that from terestrial broadcasting or cable. My home made program playlist looks way better than offical one. Especialy music videos stations broadcast most od SD in shitty quality so I use it only like a reference what to download because I can stand their mushy pixel blocking shit :)

In the old analog days we allways hated grain! It was an enemy. It was unavoidable. Except for very few shots where cinematography was so exceptional that it beautifully worked together but not because of grain or other atributes, but because of the content. And now when we have almost clean picture we want that grain back. Lol its all about our perception, paradigms etc. First we should look for the basic things like good cinematography, lighting and secondly we should care about secondary elements like grain, etc. In the end people just slap nice grain on shitty cinematography, turn the color wheel and start talking about film look. In reality they mostly get just grainy differently colored turd. Lets search for good cinematography first. Artist in film mostly tried to break the barriers, explore new possibilities and not to conservate them. Similar like the with Neville Brody attitude which changed graphic desing forever. In the end everybody started to copy his style but omited his attitude to experiment, rework and change old rules.

Trolled to death.

Jeebus, man maybe you should get your stuff together first and check your integrity too! You can write another 1000 reasons why is your grading-CC-whatever great, but everybody even average Joe can find out if it looks horrible or not with the one blink of an eye. And that what I love about it. "A picture is worth a thousand words" The reason why we mess with colors is pure aesthetics and aesthetics is not allways about perfect sharpness, fidelity, rules and limits. Free your mind and dont be a noob.

OMG what you did to her?!? She now looks like whitetrash queen with badly applied tan .... eeek. This is not grading this is disaster.

Lol, I still must must laught about all that widespread assumptions, that all smartphone users are former or potential DSLR users and that they weakened number of people regulary using DSLR. It definiteley hit compact camera users but how much it influenced DLSR users? Around 5% of them stopped to use bigger cameras in favor of phones?? I dont know. And how many use DSLR for video? Just a fraction. Big numbers makes lot of people blind. Manufacturers only see big $$$$$$$$ and media starts instantly talking about death of DLSR. Result will be that we will get DSLRs with huge retina displays with Android or iOS and slogans in ads will be talking about that we can use fabulous Instagram App in it. We will make our calls with camera too. Google, NSA and photo manufacturers will closely watch our prefered ISO/ apperture/ setting habits and your camera will loudly interfere with speakers everywhere because it will be still online :D Samsung already started with this. Hope somebody will not forgot to make good cameras in the future. :)

Rework your rigs and PL mounts. :)

1. So what's the price of that YAGH brick dock? 2. Can you record 10bit 4:2:2 4K internally on SD card without SDI dock? And 10bit 4:2:2 in HD?

This is gear forum and full of speculations :D
