This firmware was released some time ago, and I already used a lot the 40mm zoom mode. Yes, there is almost no drop on image quality - only "problem" is that it only works in the Normal color profile, don't work with Log. Did not tested the breathing compensation, but from the reviews that I saw, it works really well. -

I think the solution is to have distribution channels independent of the USA. Create your own streaming platforms for content made regionally and also internationally (among movie-producing countries that don't go into trade wars with each other). This way the market becomes much more healthy and less dominated by a small number of current players that are very large. Of course I understand that funding can be an issue, but such platforms could gather public financing (either via subscriptions that are a bit larger than the big platforms' fees initially, or via government or intergovernmental support from tax money). The streaming costs that a platform incurs are dependent on the quantity of content and if the focus is on quality, this shouldn't be a huge issue. -
What are your thoughts on Bertrand Mandico? Honestly i find it quite hard to understand the concepts and strories of his films, but the way his movies look and are shot is super faszinating. Also great that he comes from an animation background: -
Absolutely. If poorly used, it will look like complete crap. This technology should remain a pure add-on. Otherwise, think of it like an anti-inflammatory drug—it can save your life, but it can also be dangerous, even fatal. What I appreciate here is the return to the written word. Writing for cinema is coming to life again. Repetition is nonsense—hence the earlier example of Marvel, and similarly with certain stylistic formulas. This discussion hasn't positively popped up with AI... I’m not aware of Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s engagement with AI... He is clearly the Antonioni of today. But he is not Antonioni. Yet you’ll find Antonioni’s trace in his cinema, without him being a mere imitator of one of the greatest masters in the history of film. But seen as his inheritor. Both can achieve equal greatness, without one diminishing the other. No idea if anyone else has ever connected one with the other, but let me make my disclaimer: I certainly won’t be paying ANY royalties to anyone who might have written the same thing before me. For one simple reason—I also NEVER read it anywhere; I actually arrived at this conclusion strictly on my own.* Among many other influences, of course. It might even seem odd to bring his work into this thread right now, but I’ll say it without fear—I’m totally confident no one’s going to claim there’s any AI intervention going on here made or released in 2006... only artistic influences and that’s a whole different story, yup! BTW his actress and wife is with no qualification hard to add, so simply amazing, not only in my eyes and to my knowledge... She is also a director but above all a writer (Ebru Ceylan), however, her husband has a lot of him in her work too... (two only feature films as actress, oh God, does it make her less gorgeous actress?!) and in that role in specific now, as for instance! ...without ever overshadowing (or killing in the context of our discussion along this thread ; ) her gift. A few creators have impressed me so much as her performance in that particular work but credits to her husband as accomplice for that outcome. What a team! Both as sorta combo (the couple) shine even further rather than alone one or the other (the curious part is the movie plot and the stuff either Antonioni or Ceylan operate around and about). A parenthesis for the geeks and those who complain about the flaws of the current or early technology releases : D this eternal materpiece was mainly shot on good old 8-bit 3:1:1 1440x1080... I wonder if this artistic outcome or endeavor would have been possible to bring one to two decades before. We need a budget for filmmaking and not only cameras BTW : X A bit the way I see AI can work out in good hands ; ) In a word? Layers. The multiple the best. Even though, the less the better : P It's a hell of a balance hard to make, oh yeah, count on it! I will leave here an example. I asked to ChatGPT about my English here, before a few changes introduced by me in the meantime... : D and the winner (result) is: "By the way, his actress and wife is—without exaggeration—simply incredible, not only in my eyes but in my understanding. She’s also a director, but above all a writer (Ebru Ceylan). Yet her husband’s influence is undeniably present in her work too, without ever overshadowing or diminishing her gift. Together, they shine even brighter—a synergy that, to me, reflects how AI can work beautifully in good hands." I took that 'a' (before 'director' and 'writer') and robbed the word 'overshadowing' I have applied in my text. And have learnt it is better to use some punctuation mark (—) you'll start to see in my posts because I also agree it can fit more a common pattern (ah, the usual standards!) than the one (--) I am used to. Other than that, I stand with my original text. Should I feel or infer that have I stolen anything to anyone and pay royalties for that? ; ) https://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/ https://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/photography/earlyphotographs1.php https://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/photography/turkeycinemascope1.php https://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/photography/inanotherplace1.php https://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/photography/formyfathertexteng.php BTW part III, nature is a bastard... His father's face looks like the filmmaker himself! Maybe some time machine over there? LOL ; ) Well, straight on topic, for some good reason I'd like to end this post of mine with this line ;- ) * Funny, out of curiosity, I asked to ChatGPT with this paragraph if someone else had said the same in the past, here's the answer (haha looks like if I had to pay anyone, it’d be the auteur himself, I posed my observation which led to such a 'gross' statement of mine among others bien sûr): «Regarding your comparison between Nuri Bilge Ceylan and Michelangelo Antonioni, you're in good company. Ceylan has acknowledged Antonioni as a significant influence on his work. For instance, in an interview, Ceylan mentioned that Antonioni's films like L'Eclisse, L'Avventura, and La Notte inspired him during his formative years as a filmmaker. Critics have also noted the stylistic and thematic parallels between the two directors, particularly in films like Climates, where Antonioni's influence is evident in the exploration of alienation and the use of visual composition. Sources: SCREENVILLE + erajournal.co.uk So, while you're not the first to draw this connection, your perspective adds to the appreciation of Ceylan's work and its cinematic lineage.» End of quote. On your quote, Eduardo, can that Cleopatra (1963) be taken as influence too instead? I am currently literally drinking every LIFE magazine work out here: https://books.google.pt/books/about/LIFE.html Just for the sake of our discussion, should I stop to do it? -
Special exception as she made them pre 1945.
