mkabi Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 From what Arikhan has said, I can assume that it has a lot to do with an external recorder??? What can capture 28MP though? We can't bother Arikhan, but we can still speculate, even though it all be an April Fools Joke. Be nicer guys, cause April Fools also falls on Easter Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkabi Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Sorry, I thought he said something about an article and I got mixed up with what Sanveer said below: On 3/20/2018 at 10:38 AM, sanveer said: From the same (Imaging Resource) interview shared above: "DE: The video streaming through HDMI port, is that 4:2:2 on everything? JK: It's 4:2:2 out the HDMI 1.4 port; it's 4:2:0 as it goes to the SD. And it's H.265 to the card for both HD and 4K, so whatever video mode you're saving to SD card, it's using H.265, so you're going to get much more efficient and better-quality HD out of it." I am guessing it's a spftware limitation since it does write RAW photos to card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnewxcv Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Why couldn't I have started reading this thread 10 days from now? That's 9 restless nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arikhan Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 3 hours ago, mnewxcv said: That's 9 restless nights. Why? The NX gear you already own (I saw 2 of the NX1 in the other thread), doesn't limit you at all - unless you are a coal mine, tunnel or night-life documentarist, shooting permanently in horrible lighting conditions (without the possibility to light up your scenes / models), where the NX1 doesn't shine. Or a Hollywood DOP or blockbuster filmer - but in this case there are some production cameras, beeing probably a better option than a NX1. Getting out by day some hours and taking some beautiful shots with your NX1, could probably satisfy you more than the belief you were limited by gear. I'm not a physician and don't aim to give any medical advice, but after some hours of challenging shooting, you could sleep better at night. I would just try to get more shooting fun than better/more gear or specs. Have fun. BTW: @Matthew Hartman will get his hands first on some samples. After discussing, criticism, proposals, I will put the footage down here, so you guys could take a "first look" and evaluate it from your POV. Technical or even workflow aspects are not as important as aesthetical/IQ considerations for the first...

It's like someone on a car forum saying I found this way to double the horsepower of your car! Will tell you all about it in 10 days. Lol.

Arikhan Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Yeah...It's not a necessity but the hunger for "more and more" driving us in the arms of gear manufacturers or some "hacks". Tech passion, curiosity, hope...It's simply the challenge making things interesting, yeah... 19 minutes ago, mnewxcv said: It's like someone on a car forum saying I found this way to double the horsepower of your car! I never said this ("doubling the power of NX1"). I ONLY said to do 4K RAW. If this would "double the power" of the NX1, is something everyone has to judge for himself. For me (!) it's great.

Marco Tecno Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I think I'm one of the 'oldest' nx supporters on this forum. I bought nx100 back in late 2011 and since then I bought nx200, 300 and finally nx1 in feb 2015. So it's just been 3 years that I've been using nx1. I love it and along with s lenses it's really powerful. The news about dng recording is simply great. I followed the hacking scene from day 0 and this would be a tremendous achievement for a system which is proving to be the longest lasting reigning apsc on the market as far as I'm concerned. Kudos to you if you can make this public. MKSN, Kisaha, Matthew Hartman and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryde Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I would say 4k raw would definitely double the horsepower of the nx1 for my purposes, as long as the workflow isn't entirely unreasonable. The difference in quality can be experienced by shooting a timelapse with raw photos and comparing that to a hyperlapse shot in h265. The color depth and malleability just doesn't compare. I'm not throwing shade at the nx1's video quality (i still use it regularly after all), I'm just saying usable 4k raw video would put the camera in another league altogether.

Some shade isn't completely unwarranted. As powerful as HEVC is over h.264, it's still a lossy distribution codec at the end of the day, in 8bit no less. If more can be drawn out of the camera, that's a win in my book. Of course, it will depend on the workflow and reliability. I'm sure some here are willing to meet those requirements. pryde and Marco Tecno 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you claim to unlocked 16bit RAW? that is orders of magnitudes greater than 8bit compressed. Even 10bit RAW vs 8 bit RAW is four times as much information never mind the compression... I don't know I'm just saying extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and if you are for real extraordinary evidence should be really easy to provide yet you haven't given a single tiny bit. @Arikhan, the more I think about it the more I am sure you are full of shit... if you did pull this off you at least have one RAW video and despite spending time on here posting you haven't spent the time to upload any proof... common man.

Ever been in a romantic relationship? 99% off them are predicated off of psychological and emotional codependency. Believe your nation's government truly has your best interests at heart? Heard of the world bank? Look, if we get fooled or suckered, it wouldn't be the first time. We are all suckers, this is just another day another dollar.

That way we don't feel like we have been taken for a ride if its not what we expected or even just a fairytale. But it also doesn't make us feel bad for provoking, insulting and constantly nagging him if it turns out to be true noplz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neosushi Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Not that I want to sound picky, but I feel like I'd rather go with a 10bit H265 - that would keep the same workflow that we have - vs RAW - with a complicated workflow / no EVF / no Sound. What do you guys think ? (not that it's a real debate, but since all of these RAW talks are just pure speculation / no offense) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of file sizes would 16-bit raw yield? 1 ~ 1.5 Gb/s give or take... that’s a lot of data. Even if it can.., and I believe it can, there are likely reasons why Samsung didn’t push it to these extremes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the information we've been given so far the body can handle that, but you can't write that to the SD card, the fastest UHS-II cards can write up to 250-260MB/s continuosly. So you either compress RAW, or lower the number of bits. Marco Tecno 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
