35% of the total electorate voted to leave of the 72% that voted, so its the 28% that didn't actually go and vote that have got what they deserved. I'm not actually sure what Britain or being British actually even means anymore let alone what the difference between the two may or may not be. The only thing that it seems unites everyone is the feeking of division. Pretty ironic really.

Unfortunately, the detail involved means that we will be anything but fine. Frictionless trade and with mainland Europe isn't just a buzz phrase but a vital part of not just how much trade we do but how we are able to do that trade. Everything that has evolved over our almost half a century relationship with the EU from food and safety standards, to human rights, worker protection, research projects, funding of development of deprived areas and the two way benefits of freedom of movement will all end in a couple of months. My right to work, trade and latterly live in other European countries that I have enjoyed for the past 27 years will be over. My wife who is an EU national has also spent those same 27 years working in the UK, paying taxes and contributing to the economy will now have to pay a registration fee to stay in our own home. Her pensions and other assets are locked into a currency that has been devalued, her future status is no longer protected by EU agreements and living in a country that is becoming ever more flagrantly hostile to EU nationals. And all of this while we are still bound by the terms of membership so God knows how it will become when the gloves are off after we leave the EU. So we have had to make a decision to open an EU company in readiness and unless a miracle happens and Brexit is halted we will close our UK one because it will just present too many problems to trade with and within the EU from outside it. Without sounding too dramatic, due to the ideologies behind it and the impact it will have on my ability to maintain my career, Brexit has made me a political and economic refugee and I will be leaving the UK permanently. Even if everything is 'fine' in the UK after Brexit, it will never truly be 'fine' again due the fractures it has created and the light it has shone on some ugly truths. And yet we continue to sleep walk to the abyss because of some insane combination of an outdated notion of exceptionalism within the wider world and keeping a stiff upper lip. Summed up really by this from one of our better comedies that I'm sure you are both familiar with From the same programme, this also sums up where we are and what we need at this late hour instead of just blindly walking into no mans land. Unfortunately, all we've got is a government who have handed a £15m contract to bring in the emergency medical and food supplies we will need post Brexit to a ferry company that has no ferries. Not very cunning at all.

Well if you can't blame it on the sunshine,the moonlight,the good times or indeed the boogie then I suppose I'm next in line.

Prores RA To reflect the crop factor.

Have you got a +1 for this Barcelona thing ?

Have a look at The Thick Of It as well. If you can't find the boxsets then there is usually a live improv version of it currenty running pretty much every day on the BBC Parliament channel...

If its old world and fucked up you're after then look no further than us from the end of March. Bring your own medicine and trade deals with you though.

This application is another one that instantly made me think again of the SteadXP. Having it on the camera and you just being able to concentrate of getting in the ballpark framing wise (as well as not falling off the mountain!) without additional weight and encumbrance of a stabilisation system and being able to achieve it in post seems an ideal use case. Being able to decide later just how much float or authenticity to the footage is also something that isn't possible with a hardware stabilisation system. There just doesn't seem to be enough consensus on how well it works as a general reliable solution other than 'when it works, it works great' and results like this one do seem to tally with that. I'm going to pick up a used one on eBay I think to see for myself as adding this level of stabilisation (when it works ) to all of my cameras at that price is intriguing. After using the Insta 360 One X recently and seeing the sort of results wider capture with post stabilisation can achieve its even more interesting to me now.

This is big news. As you say, as much for what it means potentially to other cameras as much as it does for Nikon owners.

Doesn't sound too dissimilar to this report ? https://***URL removed***/forums/thread/4088930

Good news that you got it back. Is there no way you can see what they posted while they had it ? Be interesting to know what it was they posted that caused 7% to unfollow you but the other 93% to think it was OK? I suspect that is what is behind a lot of these hacks, so they can use it as a way to test opinions and use the data to shape more sinister social media manipulations as per Brexit and before you know it, your country will vote to impose economic sanctions on itself and trumpet a loss of freedom to travel and work overseas as some sort of huge victory. Or it might have just been porn.

Yeah, the number of gun related deaths in the UK and the US per 100K of population does have the same rough correlation to the number of guns per 100 people in each country so its not actually disproportionate. It makes a big difference to the overall figures despite that correlation though when in the UK we have 4900% more people than guns and the US where there are roughly 18% more guns than people. I completely respect your right to follow your own country's laws by the way, particularly in the context of protecting you and yours in the face of that level of heat that everyone else is packing I'd be responsible for most of them on an average walk down the high street, thats what scares the shit out of me about them ! If guns were legal here though, all of the murders would be very British and done in a passive aggressive way with a silencer at long range so as not to make a fuss.

You could use the strapline "Guns don't kill people. People with inferiority complexes with guns kill people".

Which, to bring it back to the OP's issue with DPReview, is quite telling as everytime I look in the comments on a news story on there he is seemingly one of their respected voices of wisdom. I imagine the escalation potential of internet arguments in a forum where you are all armed must be pretty next level.

Well, lets wait until the Brexit clown car completes its journey over the edge of the white cliffs of Dover and then see how light hearted I am

After spending far too many hours in their casinos as a younger man, I can attest that not providing a specific hour for the announcement other than "Las Vegas time" is entirely appropriate and could mean any time in the next few days

In Jon's defence, if I had been at the receiving end of some of the snide innuendo that he was subjected to on here then I wouldn't have given a fuck about what I said to those people either. I'd say he actually rose above a lot of it with far more restraint than I and many other people would have done. The hypocrisy of some was laid bare when one of the earlier footage releases from the Pocket 4K featured what in a different era would have been euphamistically referred to as Lolita content. Was this content scorned on this board? Nah, just the technical aspects of it pored over of course. I don't know whether he is banned from here or just choosing to stay away but obviously his posts towards the end of his last period of activity on here would suggest the former. And if not then some of them certainly read as an attempt at assisted banning as does one of his posts on his own blog. There is no doubt Jon was a divisive presence at times - a fact to which he latterly attested and apologised to some posters individually for - but there are a few people who need to think about their role in the toxicity.

There are a couple of exceptions but I'd say in general terms that the past 5-10 years have produced better drama TV series from the UK than comedy. That could all change post 29th March of course when God knows we'll need something to laugh about.

I have two T/L mount bodies and zero L mount lenses so obviously the biggest con (and some would say in both senses of the words) is the price of the lenses. Not that that means that I have a shortage of lenses to mount on them as via cheap M and R adapters as intermediaries there aren't too many restrictions. So even if Panasonic and Sigma don't come up with the expected goods in terms of hugely cheaper native lenses, you still won't be struggling for something to film through albeit manually, which won't faze many people on here anyway. And if the EVF on it is as good as the one on the SL then no one will be crying into their beer about it.

I have to say that considering how much film production has gone on in Canada in the past 30+ years then I think the answer should be "why wouldn't there be so many Canadians doing photo/video for a living?" Favourable exchange rate, a range of tax incentives, English (and French in parts) speaking crews and the ability to double as a range of US locations (especially NYC) etc etc has all added up to making it an attractive proposition to shoot there over the years. This list of films shot in Toronto for example illustrates the point https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_shot_in_Toronto Telefilm Canda is also very active with co-production agreements with numerous countries and all of this production creates not only a lot of activity at the high end but obviously also filters down and creates a sizeable base below it. Clearly, looking at YouTube then, a lot of Canadian have just taken the previous job the outside world knew them for and just put the letter 'V' in front of it

Obviously, you have to manage your expectations at that sort of price and its difficult to say definitively with lenses of this vintage whether you will be getting a lemon through it being a battered copy of a good lens or a mint condition copy of a bad lens If you are looking to keep it really low then have a look at a Nikon Series E 70-210mm f4 which you can readily get for under £50. As with the Canon FD80-200 that @noone referenced, it is a one touch design which might suit better for manual control in your application.

There are a lot of variables in what you are looking for but here is a rough guide to storage size per min for common formats. There are a number of calculator apps available for Android and iOS that will give you an exact result for more cameras and codecs but the chart above should be enough to get you in the ballpark but the biggest variable though - and one which no calculator will get you anywhere near a solution for - is the shooting ratio. If you were doing a 10 minute UHD film shot in RAW on the BMPC 4K then it would need 123.6GB of storage (12.36 x 10) but that is if you did it in one take of course. The shooting ratio will vary wildly and make the total storage requirement many times that amount but only you will know what that ratio will be depending on the type of film it is and how you will be shooting it and numerous other different unique factors. Just as an FYI, here are the shooting ratios for some feature films. Aim for Primer but budget closer to Hateful Eight !

The third thing of which you can be certain is that you will never be able to say "that really is enough bags for me now". I'm pretty sure that if I had to move house that I could transport most of its contents in the various bags I've acquired over the years.

I used to use the same size Lowepro from their Runner range quite a lot and it will take a lot of gear and a lot of abuse. It was useful for travelling when budget airlines got a bit more strict with weight limits for carry on as its half the weight and a lot less conspicuous than a Peli 1510. The downside to it being able to take a lot of gear is that you take advantage of that and it can add up to a lot of weight to have on your back. I got in a London cab with it on fully (over) loaded once and slipped and ended up on my back like an upturned turtle and the cab driver had to come and help right me. Not my finest hour! I can definitely attest to the durability of it as I've had sat in snow, mud and rain while I've been working and its never had a problem keeping my gear dry or protected from bumps, knocks and taxi floor impacts. Bags are ridiculously overpriced though aren't they? Obviously its a worthwhile cost when it comes to protecting gear many, many times the price of it but even so its still a bit of a piss take and there is definitely a tariff when it comes to getting a photo specific bag versus a similar generic bag. Reminds me of this sketch about wedding cakes Incidentally, there are some surprising prices returned when you put 'Lowepro' into the search at Aliexpress........
