    • It definitely seems like manufacturers are pushing Raw like it's the best thing since sliced bread. The average buyer of the prosumer hybrid mirrorless cameras does not need Raw.  I noted some chat above about bandwidth vs processing power. Seems this is also the case with the Lumix S1II/S1IE. Seems like Lumix is beginning to favour Raw over H.264 and H.265 recording, which is very disappointing. I tested one for a weekend and was let down by the horrendous digital sharpening and aggressive noise reduction in the compressed codecs, even when it's turned all way way down, it's not "off". Many claim the extra sharpening is to help the AF, but the AF still works in Raw - the only recording format that actually looks organic and natural. So it's evidently a processing problem. I was really excited by the prospect of the S1II but I'm afraid it's completely unusable for my needs. I don't want or need Raw, I'd just like a nice, natural looking H.265 image please.
    • Greetings Everyone, More free seamless texture images to share with you! You'll find them on this page on my website: GROUND - Tile-able https://soundimage.org/txr-ground-seamless/ USES FOR MY IMAGES You can use my images to create materials for 3D objects, as backgrounds for videos, for visual effects (VFX) or anything else you can think of! They're 100% free to use with attribution, like my thousands of other images, music tracks and sounds. OTHER NEWS I'm finishing up an original music score for the upcoming fantasy game "Warbound" so I'll be free to work on other projects soon.  Feel free to contact me if you need help. As always, enjoy, stay safe and keep being creative!  🙂
    • True, I would agree with this. For me, I always make it a priority, even though it's costly and I don't "see" anything new when spending all that money on RAID drives/arrays, memory cards, and the computer upgrade. But I do that knowing that in the past, I've always benefited from it and have never regretted it. 
    • You're not wrong, but the complicated part is deciding whether you can afford storage and computing power, or whether to use that money on lenses, snacks for your crew, other life expenses, etc.
