Yes and it's very simple. On the top menu go to EDIT > Remove Unused It's going to remove all the files which are not in your timeline. But make sure that you don't have multiple timelines tabs or sequences otherwise the "remove unused" feature will keep all the files also used by the other sequences/tabs.

By the way, Google just published a report about piracy and put some numbers about its content ID and revenue distribution. We learn that: - Youtube paid labels and rightsholders more than $3 billion this year thanks to the content ID system. Between october 2017 and oct 2018, $1.8 billion was paid to the music industry. - Google invested $100 millions in the content ID system, mainly in technical and H&R. This number is up from $60 million two years ago. Now just put these number in perspective with Vimeo annual revenues ($100 millions). This combined with the lawsuit might explain the difference between how youtube and vimeo handle the strike issue. Again, I'm not saying that I like the strike policy at Vimeo (got a strike myself...) but we need to see the big picture here.

Youtube is not free. When something is "free", you are the product. Alphabet/Google makes between 80 and 90% of its revenue with Google ads (check the annual report). That's why they "offer" map, gmail, youtube, android, documents and all the services for free because they monetize your private information and sell it to others. And this is a very lucrative business, Alphabet revenue was $110 billion last year. Vimeo is aiming at $100 million this year... Facebook once considered making a Ads free service and the price estimate for the monthly subscription would be $11 to $14 which is more than the Vimeo Plus subscription on a yearly basis. That's what "free" means. So yeah, it's "free" but then you have Cambridge analytica scandals and super intrusive policy. How is she absurd? The 3 strikes policy was in effect years before she arrives at Vimeo. Clueless, what did she do since she arrive at Vimeo? What is her position about the development of the company? What's the new strategy? I'm ready to accept facts but so far it seems more like feelings, opinions and hate toward her. I just don't know what she does at Vimeo and I'd like to know.

Why so much hate against her? I don't know her personal story and her direct role in the DMCA policy (which btw was active long before she became CEO ). According to your wiki link "IAC is an American holding company, that owns over 150 brands across 100 countries, mostly in media and Internet" So this is a big conglomerate that buys companies to generates profit. Based on reuters, Vimeo is aiming at $100m revenue this years. I don't see any conglomerate willing spend a year of revenue ($100m) to fight for lawsuits. This is probably ten years if not more of Vimeo's operating income based on a 10% return. It's all about basic business math. IAC didn't become a fat cat just by blowing money out of the windows. They are big, we can despise them but they have a business rationale whether we like it or not. Being 134th on Alexa is nice but it's not bulletproof. Online business rise and fall very quickly. So on a personal standpoint, I agree with you, this is outrageous and I just got my first BS strike a few weeks ago. I'm trying to fight back but I have zero response from Vimeo. On a business standpoint, it may make sense. Vimeo is a midget in the online word, their business model doesn't seems super solid (I don't have any profitability figure though), they failed the VOD move and its parent company is not going to burn cash because they are "big". It doesn't make any sense. So they are either dumb not seeing the incoming disaster or they are working on a new business model and strategy. Beyond that I will not venture any further as I have zero information and facts about what is really going on at Vimeo internally.

According to many rumors she's here to re-structure Vimeo so her finance background makes sense. She has directors to tell her about the creative aspect. Then she must act. There are two options: 1. She is stupid and everybody at Vimeo is dumb, they don't see that the DMCA thing is becoming a big issue. Possible but unlikely. Even Newsshooter just published an article about it. Vimeo didn't want to make any comments on the article despite Nesshooter request (my email also got ignored). 2. Their video on demand thing didn't work, they fired the previous executives and they are probably preparing a new strategy and this next business model might move away from the "NYC community with love" BS. They don't care much about a few outraged bloggers and twitter posts, they have bigger fish to fry. Everybody is outrage nowadays anyway. If this is the case, they just keep radio silence and dodge the few tweets and blog posts until they announce/implement the new strategy. As for the legal point, as always they know that 99.9999999% of the people won't do anything else beyond screaming on internet. Otherwise feel free to hire a layer with a 2,000 euros retainer upfront just to start the procedure and see how long you stay afloat fighting against their "clueless" legal department. I don't think they are clueless, just cynical.

Without too much risk of being wrong, I can say that we've all been there. You know, forums... Welcome back!

Interesting. How much did you pay for it? PS: I hope you have a release for each people in this video, gonna DMCA you! ?

Do you have any source about the fact "the UK wanted to work together with Europe to solve problems like digital privacy and copyright in a rational way.… but it’s difficult when your partner-government consists almost entirely of snivelling weasels." Do you mean it's good UK against bad Europe? Bit simplified no? I did a couple of timelapse in London and it's one of the worst possible place on earth for street filming. Most of the city if own by a few Lords and every time you set up a tripod the security shows up in 2 min (courtesy of CCTV I guess) to kick you out. Even Dubai is much more relax for landscape photography. Let's do a bit of history: Brexit is the result of gamble lost by Cameron and won by the some of the worst populists that exist in Europe. Farage, Johnson, the daily mail, and company. Where are the £350m per week promised to the NHS? Don't get me wrong, France has Le Pen, Italy has Salvini, Kurz in Austria and the AFD is rising in Germany.. No one is spared by this populist wave fueled by many phenomena (globalization, Syrian crisis, economic crisis, etc.) but UK is far from being the white knight in Europe (it's not what you said I know). They joined Europe in the 70s after they realized it was good for the economy. Since Thatcher, UK has been asking for "rebate" all the time with a certain success. Now the British are going to explore the "open sea" alone as Churchill said. And it's sad because the Brits are some of the best people on earth. It's a great nation with a fantastic history. Very creative and I have a lot of friends there. Yes, there are some BS with Europe and I agree with some of your points but actually, the General Data Protection Regulation also brings some good stuff against the abuse of the GAFAs. Europe is only the sum of it's members, unfortunately many of them have opposite interests (tax dumping in Ireland and Luxembourg, financial center in the City, conservative pole in Hungary and Poland, federalism in France, etc.) and put the blame on "Brussels" which is only the headquarter of the institutions. "Europe" doesn't create BS, it comes from its members and their lobbyists in Brussels. UK is among the top for lobbyist work by the way.

I'm sure that alienating their paying subscribers base is a brilliant strategy to achieve this goal. According to Reuters: "More than half of the Vimeo’s revenue comes from business customers, Vimeo CEO Anjali Sud said"

Dailymotion. Been there for 13 years but It's just a French equivalent of youtube. https://www.dailymotion.com/us https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dailymotion After that we have Pornhub!

Vimeo right now..

As usual, It's all about money. Basically Vimeo has been fighting in court since 2009 over a stupid "lipdubs" videos. The case has taken many twists and turns but it's still there. It seems to be a good analysis: "The case, which was first filed in 2009, initially focused on Vimeo's promotion of so-called "lipdubs." Vimeo is a much smaller competitor to YouTube for hosting videos, but in the 2007 to 2009 timeframe, got some attention for hosting these "lipdubs" of people singing along to famous songs. Perhaps the most famous was one done by the staff of Vimeo itself. And the case continues. As law professor Eric Goldman notes about this case, the fact that such a case is limping along in its 9th year, and still hasn't even reached the summary judgment stage, suggests some worrisome things for innovation in this market. Consider this: have you ever pondered why YouTube is the dominant video hosting platform? Here’s one hypothesis to explore. It took YouTube nearly a decade, and well over $100M, to eventually settle its DMCA lawsuit. YouTube’s competitor Veoh won its DMCA safe harbor defense in court but ran out of money and dropped out of the industry along the way. YouTube’s competitor Vimeo has been hemorrhaging cash fighting this litigation since 2009. And what potential video hosting investor wants to shovel the first $100M+ of raised capital into the inevitable DMCA lawfare with the copyright owners–before you even start building a viable or profitable business? I think we can connect the dots between the lack of competition in video hosting and the safe harbor’s (defective) design." So it may explain why Vimeo is extra sensitive with the DMCA BS and why there isn't much competition in this field. They are hammered by labels in courts while Youtube dominates the market and managed to keep the DMCA under control because it has the resource to fight back.

Hi Andrew. I had the exact same issue with Vimeo this month. A BS DMCA claim and Vimeo is not answering my counter request. Even youtube which is free finally removed one of the DMCA take down after I send a counter request. This DMCA thing is such a BS, anybody can throw that at you. They hit first and never double check anything. I'm going to check Wistia.

The OSMO raw is a piece of shit, I wouldn't even spend $100 for it. I used it for two day, it's bad, especially the mandatory transcoding is a pain and take forever. The concept is good but this product was badly designed. Actually I just shoot today with my cheap Zhiyun crane and the GH5, no need for more. It works great. Perhaps I'll try the BM4KPC on it unless I buy another GH5S (or wait for the S1/S1R). We have so many great affordable tools now. Gears is not an issue, procrastination is (for me)

True... I'm an XQD virgin! I believe you Andrew. The main factor is the price right now. About fragile and cheap, a lot of people say that and I don't really get it. I never had any issue with the SD and I don't really step on them. But it's a non issue, if the industry switch to XQD and the price goes to normal level, I will just follow.

Let's play the Devil's advocate here: - "The market can't wait, Sony will be late" First, Let's no forget that the ILC video people like us are just a very small part of the market. I know there is no need to ignore a share of the market but by most account, we are 5% of the market. The counter argument is the the A7s is precisely here to address this niche market. But there must be R&D priorities, these 5% don't seems to be on top of the list now. Then, the Sony released the A73 and A7RIII relatively recently, so they are not exactly sleeping, these camera are good for video. Now, there are serious hints about a future new high-end APS-C camera coming soon Finally, even though Sony is just "thinking about it" we don't know what this really means. Perhaps the manager doesn't want to say too much. In any case, as mentioned previously, Sony is THE company when it comes to imaging sensors. They may not have a camera ready yet but they are constantly working on the different modules to make one for them or others. Finally, Sony is not interested to match Panasonic or Fuji but they seem to have the ambition to raise the bar. Then what? Are we going to complain when the new Sony is announced and the S1 falls behind? It's a never ending story. Even if the A7s3 is two years away, the priority at Sony is certainly not to divert resources on a niche camera when they have to compete with new mirroless competitors. The FF cash cow (and profit beast) is the a7r3. They may logically prioritize their resources to match the high-end EOS-R(s) coming next year. The big chunk of the market is there, no in the niche video segment. So far the current offering is covering this part and as Andrew said before, the A7III is so good that the A7SIII might not be required. Perhaps Sony plan to counter the video challengers with the A74 and A7R4 first before dropping another punch with the A7S3 later on. Two birds one stone. - Competitors To be fair, the Sony guy didn't just say "I don't care about the competition". He said, "I don’t know what the impact of [Canon and Nikon entering the full-frame mirrrorless market] will be but we remain focused on creating new customers. That is our priority. Honestly speaking, I don’t care about competitors, I care about the customers." What else could the guy say? "Yes, we care immensely about Canon and Nikon because we are in the second league in the shadow of these long time masters" I just see this statement as a way to downplay Nikon and Canon role and put Sony as one of the main player in the business. You can even see it as critique against Canon "I care about the customers". Not like Canon which only gives us the minimum and cripple its camera. - SD cards Personally, I'm happy with the SD format. The price are reasonable and the latest standard should offer 985MB/sec. If there is some sort of backward-compatibility I'll stick with SD. - 8k and ergonomic I can't find any reasons here. 8k is useless for me as well. Working on higher frames rate and color depth in 4k is the priority now. 8k is overkill, the hard drive technology is lagging behind and my monster PC wouldn't even handle it properly. As for the ergonomic, I'm speechless, Sony cameras are atrocious and it should be an easy fix.

Unless I really need to (new file/codec support), I always wait 3 to 6 months before updating and I also keep the previous version installed on my computer to be able to revert back to a stable mode if needed. The early versions are always in beta state and full of bugs. #adobe

And also because most people still buy their cameras, as long as they can get away with giving less for more money, they will do it. And as you say: In my case, I'm done with Canon, I haven't bought anything from them for years and I stopped investing in the EF system (except the Irix 11m f/4, I needed for a job, great lens btw). I'm keeping my old bodies and lenses and waiting for the next Sony or S1 when they'll get it right. This stupid logic is beyond me, instead of giving money to Canon I blew $10k with Panasonic over the past 5 years... and it might continue as I need a C cam for a new project. Honestly I would have been happy to keep all my money in a single system but Canon tries to force me to buy something I don't need (a huge Cine camera). It's not even about the price. I don't know any of these guys, and that's probably why...

Very good and balanced article. Personally I would throw it in a Volcano. I'm waiting for the details on the S1 & S1R, meanwhile I'm happily shooting with the GH5 for video and 6D for stills.

Yes, far from confirmed but I think that would be a strange decision to tackle this market alone when there is some consolidation and alliance going on. As you said, they would have to pay for the R&D with a narrow market and convince customers to pick a system with limited optics. We'll see.

"it is Leica who hold the license to invite other companies into the fold and use the mount." ... "Likewise, Leica have not invited Olympus to the fray." Interesting Andrew. Do you mean that Leica refused to invite Olympus? If Leica has the L-mount license, it seems that Panasonic is the heavy player in the alliance who pulls the string. In the DP article, Sigma says "Panasonic approached us and proposed that we work on it jointly. At around that same time, Panasonic approached Leica, and finally the three companies came together – I think it was about two years ago. And then we agreed to join the L mount system and we discontinued the development of our own original mount system." In an interview with the head of imaging at Panasonic, he also says "At the beginning of 2018, we decided to approach Leica and Sigma. Why did we choose Leica? We have a long history with this brand. Since the launch of the Lumix brand in 2001, we have been working with Leica and since 4 years we have a technical partnership. We were very involved in the development of the L-mount and naturally, we thought that if we ever decided to enter into the 24x36 segment, we should use this mount. For Sigma, we know that this brand offers quality products and a beautiful range of 24x36 optics. We are also convinced by the vision of Kazuto Yamaki, CEO of Sigma, and we have a common philosophy. It was then normal to offer this alliance to Sigma and we thought we could help improve our system. The two companies were quickly seduced by this alliance and by the synergy that it was possible to create." Based on a previous discussions on this forum, some members noted that the choice of the L-mount was probably a marketing thing more than anything else. There are only 6 native L-lenses at the moment and they are not exactly stellar for the price. Designing a lens mount doesn't seem to be critical. If Panasonic didn't do it for the technology, they probably decide to go with Leica for the name. Leica has the license but Panasonic is the key player in this alliance because of its electronic know-how. If anything, Panasonic could do well without Leica, not the other way around. Asked why Olympus was not part of the L-mount alliance, the head of imaging at Panasonic said: "Ten years ago, we made the same conclusion with Olympus on the future of DSLRs. We found them large and heavy and we wanted to create something new and much more accessible with the possibility of having an interchangeable lens system. We really had the same vision on photography. Today with 24x36 bodies, we do not really have the same vision. Our directions are different now, on the FF format anyway." Whatever the reason is for the absence of Olympus in this partnership, wouldn't it be suicidal for Olympus enter the FF market alone in front of Canon, Nikon and the L-alliance? They would have to develop a new range of lenses by themselves and convince the customer to go invest in their isolated system (well, Pentax did it).

Done it several times. Assuming you gonna shoot with the door open the crew will provide a briefing and safety wire for your gears. Beside that helicopters are pretty stables and it depends of the pilot, perhaps you should give him/her some instruction (fly not too fast). Discuss about the flight pattern, the best it to orbit around a point of interest. The main issue is the wind, it can throw off your gimbal and create stabilization problems. Again, ask the pilot to fly slowly. If you zoom a little bit you can shoot protected from inside the cabin. The GH5 with ibis is fine. Beside that it depens of the enviroment, mountain, city? Usually, morning flight are smoother due to the calm air. In hot environment convection (turbulence) starts late morning. Do you know which copter you gonna ride? (R-22, R-44, Bell 205, H125)?

For my use and on a practical standpoint, 24-105 f/4. Not a dream lens, not the best but it covers many things. I really love my Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Canon TS 17mm Not a lens in particular, so far I have the feeling that Canon and Nikon are mostly showing of with huge and impractical lenses (good luck to focus with a 50mm 0.95 lens). I'm not so impressed so far. The l-mount alliance should bring more choice, faster and cheaper. Yeah, lens is just one important part of the mix. It's like asking what is more important, my arms or my legs, my right lung or my left kidney.... The is not just about one single part but the full system. So I think that the L alliance should bring more variety but we can't have it all. DFD sucks for video, PDAF is great but canon video is a turd, Fuji has wonderful cameras and lenses but skips full frame.
