ND64

Somebody discovered the h.265 softness issue is a variable bitrate bug. With Nlog its too low. It should be 320Mb/s but its 32Mb/s. They forgot a zero 🙂

One of them leaked the script of Witkoff's negotiations with the Russian guy. Another one, an admiral, questioned orders and forced to resign. The problem is there won't be enough of them, because unlike Hollywood scenarios, you need more than few heros to save the country from fascists, it needs uprising by millions of people (tho I don't believe these clowns are fascist. They're too dumb to stick with a particular ideology).

Nikon ZR vs Arri Alexa Mini Color (R3D NE, N-Log, Log C)

They're already closing down their pro services, and no way they invest in a zero growth business when they kill their own zero growth businesses.
Canon can't do it. That would be all against their ego. They and their customer base believe Canon color science is best in the world, and thats why they have 50% market share. They're like "we ain't need nobody". 
Sony will have a integration nightmare if they do it. Arri systems are in conflict with the whole Sony line up. Also it would be an official admission that the electronics/AV giant couldn't get the color science right and eventually had to go shopping.
Nikon acquisition of RED unintentionally made this perception that its a preferred approach in Tokyo. But it isn't. Nikon had to choose between two costly options and the acquisition was cheaper.
In China, its only DJI who can gain a lot with Arri reputation in its arsenal, but I don't think Germans are comfortable with giving away this German icon to Chinese.
Zeiss would be the perfect owner. A German brand with enough money, so the brand stays in the country, and they're heavily invested in high end part of the cine market. 

Suddenly Gerald finds no problem in DR and 10 stops is good enough to declare "cameras peaked". 

For comparison its his ZR test

At 0.1 High S/N ratio, DR is 6 stops. In his R6III test its only 3. Not only he is not curious at all why its so low, but doesn't even notice the drastic fall of it (from 8.26 to 3.04). As a reviewer I would dig into the data.
I seriously feel he's not interested about what he's doing anymore. He's like "AF is good". What? How you tested that? Where is the evidence that its good? Canon website says its good, what else you know? And good for who? and why people should pay near $3k to have "good AF" when their current camera already has good AF? I assume R6III AF is "better" than R6II, but I need to see the evidence in practical situations. That's the job of someone who reviews gears for living.

I wish someone in Nikon or RED explain what they did and what these codes actually do. NRAW show less purple noise at extreme underexposure but colors are all over the place. R3D NE is in a pool of purple noise, but colors are intact. 

People fight over who has closer DR and latitude to Alexa 35, then apply a LUT that drops the DR to 6 stops to look like Heat 1995.

For now as a Nikon shooter, I am more inclined to shoot NRAW and do the renaming trick to R3D, than to shoot R3D as I am finding that the Nraw has more DR than the R3D and you can shoot the normal version that takes only about 370 mbs for 24 fps in 4k and 700 mbs for 6k. This is a little test of conversion of Nev to R3D. You have NEV (Nikon RAw), NEV but using the RED lut, Then the Nev to R3D renaming and finally the REDraw file. then  So I need to make a little bit more test, with skin tones etc, but they are quite close to me, even more so that even between the different red cameras like the Raptor and Komodo, their is some color difference. The yellow are a little bit more saturated and the image is a little more toward yellow in the Nikon ZR redraw R3D files. On side by side test the ZR was the more yellowish of the red camera. So it might balance out in the end. 

Nothing beats a jet2 holiday.. I mean Chinese prices. 
Brand new S5II for only $1100

I like this way of marketing to give the camera to youtubers with low number followers and turns out they're talented and need more recognition.
 

8k30p with oversampling and 8k30p in Super35. 16 stops of DR with triple base ISO.

Curves are available in the advanced settings when creating custom picture controls (which you can the upload as recipes).

Sadly a lot of the British public distrust it as well thanks to the constant brainwashing they've been subjected to by social media and Russian bots.
I see the influence of the BBC outside the West as an attempt to spread the UK's voice, and system of democracy, and of course in some places this isn't welcome and will never be.
The purpose of the BBC is not to please everyone all over the world all at once, they were set up only to serve the British public at home and abroad, i.e. with World Service radio and the BBC news website, if someone in Afghanistan or Turkey doesn't agree with a couple of programmes then so be it, not our problem.
At the same time, people in other countries are well within their rights to have different opinions, and to tell the BBC to fuck off out of their airwaves.
Equally, the Americans should fuck off out of UK politics too and leave us to it.
However when it comes to some BBC content like David Attenborough people in other countries would do well to watch it.
Maybe they would then have a less appalling attitude to animals.

Almost all of entrepreneurs in silicon valley are fascist, some are dumb enough to reveal it at first stage, and some are smart enough to keep it in the closet until the time is right. When your mindset is wrapped by this self generated notion of "people are too imbecile to understand what we actually do everyday", the next step is to assume they're not qualified to govern themselves! Forget Trump, the bigger one is JD Vance. They're all members of tech bro club who think they know how to rule the world.
By the way, BBC is known as a outright lier in my home country now. When I was a kid it was the only alternative source to absolute garbage propaganda of the state Radio/TV. We couldn't care about the integrity as much as we had thirst for "different voice". But after the internet revolution, everything changed. Not only it was easier to see how manipulative is their practice of so called journalism, but also was possible to research about their claims, their interviewed "experts", and even the statistics. But the most stab in the back move was giving the mic to hardliner individuals, or their advocates, with this silly justification of "giving both side the chance to express themselves to let people decide themselves". I don't need to hear Bin Laden's side you assholes. Or "former" ISIS members. Or "current" Hamas member, or an orthodox settler that even IDF is struggling with. I know what's their narrative. Just tell me what they've done. As a UK taxpayer you may not very well informed about the damage BBC caused outside the west. They sometimes pushes the narrative of a Washington DC based think tank that is literally a branch of Qatar/Iran/Syria/Russia/Saudi foreign ministry, despite all these criminals call BBC the "Zionist mouth". Its a long sad story with tons of nuances that a camera oriented forum is not a right place to expand.
