  1. Worth a look. Part I. Without reframe — so far available on DJI Studio at least (video here) — will look like crap (versus Insta360 X5 with correction in-camera). source And now Part II... Imagine it now coupled to a new tool like this one:
  2. Lok Cheung's input (the other part by another usual suspect is here) on 360º acquisiton for traditional use -- my bet, actually: That London ride is exactly where I think the sensor size factor (the same for Osmo Pocket 3) makes all the difference (coupled to 10-bit realm, obviously, just not exactly all the way long like in that example but counts more than the usual reviewers tell)... No less. My shot too :- )
  3. This guy knows how to sell the 'thing'... I bite : ) Sold. Just posted less than a single hour ago. 8K50p confirmed. Simply WOW. No match.
  4. In the meantime, here's another one: crazy reviewer, he doesn't give a damn for NDAs... No idea for you but to me it is a clear win-win, so bye-bye to my One X2... Let's not forget these guys are the same who have produced the Osmo Pocket 3. I agree with the guy. You risk to no lose anything when going with these people. Hard to beat them and their products IMO : ) Seems the time you can easily match these small capture devices to any other camera of your arsenal has finally arrived.
  5. Looks like that was the same NDA footage from Benett Graezer that leaked on YouTube before July 31, not an official publisher review. The title didn’t really reflect the actual results, so it’s more of an apples-to-oranges comparison. DJI’s 10‑bit footage never showed those kinds of artifacts when handling heavily processed input on the X5. Either way, both sources have since disappeared from the web.
  6. Let alone the size of the package! ; ) It's not a REDvolution, no idea to you but to me, it's a D-Log M revolution! : P Something that puts this company ahead of anything else. Who in this industry has no at least 1x unit of a DJI drone? Or a Osmo Pocket? Well, I even mean the Osmo Pocket 3. This will apply the same for this one coming now, I guess... : X
  7. This information has less than 60 mimutes and includes comparative footage with 8-bit X5: Other than 10-bit, quasi-1 inch square (!) sensor is really something into 360 world. :- )
  8. As FX30 user in a daily basis, I must add there's something wrong with this release, no doubts on this one! : X
  9. https://www.t3.com/tech/drones/dji-mini-5-pro-is-rumoured-to-get-lidar-a-bigger-camera-and-a-surprise-release-date Coming soon here at my end too... ;- )
  10. People are rushing to gas stations because of the price hike—up to about 5% just from this Monday on... Diesel was already sold out at the first station I went to... How is it over there in your area?
  11. Landed, my friends... :- ) https://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Sigma-17-40mm-F1-8-DC-Art-Lens.aspx
  12. GX80/85 here too (they are the same camera, varies the geographic version, EU or US). Just arrived from street back to my Lisbon base, 5 minutes ago, with one in hands... as casual shooter for covering this: https://www.portugal.com/activities-experiences/the-ultimate-guide-to-the-biggest-party-in-lisbon-santos-populares-and-santo-antonio-2024-edition/ + FX30 with my new Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 attached to 1.5x Clear Image Zoom and no complaints on ISO as far as low light concerns under street bulbs by night, go figure for 4K 25p always under ISO 1000; + Osmo Pocket 3 which didn't leave the case this time and it's one of my favs; + Insta360 One X2 in my shirt pocket, despite its terrible low light/night shooting performance other than my beloved Osmo, the same, never came out... Its small form factor with the cheap kit 12-32mm f/3.5-5.6 lens makes it unique. Didn't even feel the need to use my Osmo, can you imagine? And Panasonic batteries last and last... A single battery for all night long, two batteries for Sony. Follow @kye's entry for everything else, it's for free and you have there more with him than whoever else here or anywhere out there ;- )
  13. I am tempted to pull the trigger... Thank you guys! :- )
  14. The one we know is the other one, but OK thanks for your heads-up! : ) We have another case very likely then... This is a plague. I have nothing against technology but those people who tend to take advantage from illegitimate access? We're obviously talking about something else in fact... On that case, we're studying right now a legal action based on copyright claim. Now you've brought another case. I've just notified the author on your finding.
  15. Got it! : ) No, not this one... Title means nothing ; ) It is much beyond a single title but not about this one in particular. Take a look again on the plot... And information disclosed. Yes, there are countless ways to take something from someone, tweak it just enough (disgusting attitude to take advantage without giving proper credit, especially when it’s so obvious where it came from), and voilà, pass it off as new. Revolting to say the least... To people handling this in a daily life, AI looks like a children's play. I know it's not. But there are many more evil ar$eholes other than a damned LLM... : P A different title and outfit won’t cover up what it really is. But not the case you've pointed out. It wouldn't be wise to elaborate further, here and now. The original author knows my legal advice for the subject matter. I believe that speaks volumes, considering what's already out there ;- )
  16. Others who were familiar with his script brought this to him (and there are additional details I’ll omit mentioning here) : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dear_Santa_(2024_film)
  17. @eatstoomuchjam I was only half joking with that last line, I was trying to come up with an example that fits the topic ; ) On the leftover and also to @KnightsFan now... That case unfortunately goes far beyond a mere synopsis... As with everything in life, there’s a deeper reality beneath the surface. The real problem comes when we tend to oversimplify things, stripping it of its intrinsic complexity. There's always a hidden part somewhere. And details obviously count even when they don't make all the difference. Once again, we face the B&W dilemma. The palette holds countless shades... It’s one thing to replicate 'external' models... it’s something else entirely to build in layers upon the rough sketches of one’s own process. And between the two lies an infinite universe of possibilities in how it can be used. So... Yes. The pairing of my copyright, legal, and film background and roots—strictly fueled by creative commitment—keeps me tethered. A good producer pays just as much attention to copyright stuff as to the creative side of things. I would never simply drift away.
  18. Of course but don't forget the prior discussion brought to the previous page about the whole case of the history of this medium, no less... And yes, AI is clearly a space where copyright violations make it even harder to protect original work. My point is, this problem didn’t start with AI... not even close. Here's a blatant example: the original work (years in the making!) of a close associate and business partner of mine has been stolen by... Hollywood! : X Go figure... And it has nothing to do with AI. Does that strike a chord? ; ) Now imagine how real thieves are using this technology today. This isn’t a simple problem... it goes far beyond AI. At its core, it’s about a lack of ethics, shady alliances, and the pursuit of profit with no respect for others’ work. Let’s be clear: this didn’t start with AI. In the worst-case scenario, the introduction of this new technology can only make things worse. In my country, people are used to saying something like this, although pessimists are also often seen as realists: «An optimist sees opportunity in every challenge; a pessimist sees a problem in every chance.» Unfortunately, I guess we could replace it here (not only for the things discussed in this thread but also for others) with: Where goodwill finds a chance, the thief finds a catch.™ (not stolen anywhere... : D this line is copyrighted right now LOL ;- )
