The clearest sign yet that people's critical thinking might be in a dodgy place...
7K RAW on a content creator's camera with a tripod mount to shoot in portrait orientation.
Now let's remind ourselves:
Why do people shoot vertical video - because of phones
How big is a phone screen - Erm, about 7 inches tall
How much resolution is 7K in vertical format... 1000 dots per inch!
What DPI are the best flagship phone displays? Well, iPhone 17 Pro Max is 2868 ×1320, so about 450dpi, and that is overkill already because to make out the individual pixels you need a microscope.
Those Instagram stories never looked so good.
