Airbags might not be the best analogy. ?

I’d be happy with that, bcs I wouldn’t have to upgrade my a7 III. ?

I suppose that’s why reputable reviewers make it a habit to always do a sniff test when doing an unboxing.

DPAF? yay! ?

It will have PDAF for sure. I personally like the cleaner more detailed image from oversampling, as well as the possibility of shooting s35 mode from a sensor like that of the a7 III. Loving the new avatar btw! ?

They should’ve released a medium format camera with a 1.6x crop. That would’ve made more sense. ?

That’s gotta be one of the dumbest articles I’ve read this afternoon. To sum up: Canon knows its market; its customers are 99% stills shooters who don’t necessarily want Canon investing in video functionality; and if you do happen to be a filmmaker, buy Nikon, Fuji or Sony instead - because Canon’s so big they won’t notice anyway! And wait for the clincher: Canon will release a camera with more video capability in the future. The article sounds like it was written by a fifth-grader.

“Most cameras are shit.” That’s classic. ???

I’m pretty certain if I’m not seeing it on my display, there isn’t any in the original footage. 8-bit or 10-bit, a grade as light as Behiri’s should show no banding.

I’m seeing no banding on Behiri’s footage on my 55” OLED. That’s all I can tell you.

No it will not.

You guys need to get your heads out of your asses - there's no banding whatsoever in Johnnie Behiri's YouTube footage. I'm watching it on a 55" OLED and while I'm seeing lots of camera shake and some veiling flare, there's absolutely none of the shiite you're whining about. And I'm not a Fuji fanboy BTW.

While living in Korea, I was invited twice to the Busan Film Festival and twice to the Jeonju Film festival, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet some great directors like Bong Joon-Ho and see some marvelous films. Seeing Paolo Sorrentino’s Il Divo on the big screen was an experience I’ll never forget. Unfortunately, no great film festivals here in Saigon.

I’d rather watch a film on Netflix than at the theatre any day. The top 20 spectacles account for around 40% of box office worldwide, making it increasingly difficult to see good cinema at a local movie house, even if you’re willing to shell out over $25/couple - more than double my monthly Netfix bill. Garbage Hollywood blockbusters crowd out the marquees at cinemas everywhere you look. If you want to see cinema, you’ve got to seek out an art-house theatre. There were a few in Detroit, one in Daejeon, South Korea and maybe one in Saigon - but neither of the latter two show international cinema. In many countries - outside of the major cities - it’s virtually impossible to find a movie theatre at all, let alone an art-house theatre - and good luck finding any international titles at the big franchises. If you do, they’ve got a limited run in the cruddiest little theatre imaginable. I lived in Korea for five years and theaters absolutely refused to show English-subtitled films and TV dramas. The situation is much better in Saigon. I was only able to watch Y Tu Mama Tambien and Amores Perros thanks to the Detroit Film Theatre, one of the longest running art-house theatres in the USA. This is all about money. Organizations fighting Netflix argue that festivals are in large part pubicly funded and that Netflix doesn’t contribute enough to promote their events. And because they’re publicly funded, they say the public shouldn’t have to pay for a subscription service to see the nominees. But the fact of the matter is, most of the films regalled at Cannes, Berlin, Venice and elsewhere aren’t even accessible to moviegoers around the world.

@Luke Mason My Sony videos are clean as a whistle and have no banding on YT.

motion cadence looks horrendous. maybe because they don't know how to set shutter angle.

Yeah it’s an f u to cannes and a snub to hollywood alright! Great insights. Thanks for sharing.

waste?

one sale? ???

You mean DPAF, focus tracking, face and eye detect and continuous AF are all baloney? ? I always thought a follow focus was the most reliable and cinematic looking method.

not an engineer, never shot with ML. Panasonic said they couldn't implement focus peaking on the GH3 and Fuji said they couldn't add zebras on the X-T2 because of the lack of processing power. If the P4K doesn't have waveforms now, it doesn't necessarily mean they don't plan to add it in a future update if possible.

Processing power?

I’m guessing they’ll also be adding eye detect AF in video mode.

Searching for ‘Sony crippled,’ I get this: 0 search results. Are you searching for Canon? ?
