Seems fair enough to me at least : ) @David, pops to my mind one of my fav quotes if not my dearest one: «The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.» ~ Niels Bohr E : -)

Horses for courses :-)

As matter of fact, this is the real struggle a filmmaker must deal with. I hadn't read your generous and juicy post before I posted mine. As Glenn @mercer can check by himself now, the numbers are not so far away of each other ; ) That is, to not properly state they really match : ) Your ten script pages mark don't obviously surprise me, even though as above-posted Ruiz is still considered a milestone :- D

No idea on your background Glenn, only on your good taste ; ) But I guess you'd end surprised if you'd look closer LOL ;- ) Anyway, no secrets any good search or learning enterprise or a good school resource even online can lead you to the answers you're looking for. I don't even know that show... But, take four minutes (for the full-length), I mean, to end within the screen in the final cut (or pages of script) as average at least! Narrative shot in one camera setup. No multiple camera where a not-so-well-cared soap opera can range forty/forty five minutes or so (i.e., pages of script to pair up). Oh well, do not count special projects either ; )) Which can end in a half of that first figure above for example. On the other hand, Raoul Ruiz as for instance was known by reaching twelve to make it happen in a single day.

Thanks for the heads-up! Indeed. You are right : ) My bad. Especially when I had the chance to personally meet him in Rome, trade good laughs and enjoy his companion eight years ago where I could bring with me about 5% of the people present in the RED event they organized there with the finest help of Corrado Silveri. Ted who Jim brought from AJA was rather relevant, even though I tend to point Jim-Jarred as the double-decker train. I'd favour to see Ted as the vertice of a triangle to build the company culture Jim dreamed from scratch in that distant 1999 year as some records say. I only started to be connected with him and that venture (with Jarred, since a year earlier) from 2005 on. BTW I wish Ted all the best at Paramount (E :- )

David, beyond... Don meant a dozen years ago or suchlike, more than a decade, eleven years to be more precise ;- )

Well, I guess I am entitled to also be able to add some sparks here once I was there too... ; ) While David (Newman) was actually the first in the line to become what REDCODE is, Graeme Nattress ('man of plugins') is the maths wizard behind to fulfill the rivalry. David had the tech as well he was more targeted to give a solid meaning to the masses mantra when sold his Cineform to GoPro. Amazing technology from genius hands used in the Multiple Academy Awarded Slumdog Millionaire, as for instance, when REDCODE was still in its infancy to say it pretty straightforward. Jim (Jannard) started his project in his mind along the last century's end, even though, he had hired the best man Jarred in that late 2005 from dvxuser webmaster to be RED chief and help him to finish the whole camera concept a few months before that NAB announcement the year after. A 2K cinema camera converted later to a 4K acquisition device after all, when David was effectively focused to bring 4K editing as a workflow to life. Followed by this (golden) pair of contributors usually bashed by the customary suspects inside the 35mm realm; CML, cinematography forums and so on... Hope this helps to clarify a bit such part of the History of Digital Motion Picture, E :- )

I guess this is the guy: https://www.mysmartprice.com/gear/2018/04/23/philips-releases-new-43-inch-4k-monitor-displayhdr-1000-adaptive-sync-support/ More here: http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/philips-436m6vbpab-monitor-(43in-va-ultra-hd-gets-displayhdr-1000-certification.html https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/04/philips-launches-a-43-inch-hdr-monitor-that-reaches-1000-nits-of-brightness/

Sad to know. How and why did it happen?

For a simple reason. We all know BMD IQ standard , that's why so. Isn't it, guys? ; -)

Sure. That's a mere comparison though. Sound and image don't compare at all as much as hearing and sight are senses of a very different nature. With much distinct limits indeed. See the example between animal species of unrelated kind as far as their sensory system range concerns. Therefore, perception is the main key element then. That's all about that. Fair point anyway, Aaron (E :- )

Sure : ) But there are physical boundaries marketing tend to pretend they are not mindful :-)

Agreed :-)

Yeah, I guess that link up there is pretty useful as current update indeed : ) Let's wait and see : - )

Outstanding cinematic combination... BTW @kidzrevil spill the beans on the leftover (camera used, settings, etc ; -) PS @ usual_suspects: Let's stop with this hostile downvoting mania for once please. Has no place in goodwill (go figure when plain nonsensical) within a civil location such as a friendly forum like this one must be. With seatable 4-legs couches for everyone : -)

Well, quite frankly, I guess Andrew's move goes exactly in and on the opposite direction : ) Reason why he actually earns our most sincere kudos, it doesn't matter where our personal professional (or not) ballpark is : -) BTW PRO only means you do it for living or are getting paid off for.

Another one where is also possible to compare with its louder Mavic version competitor (see end of the test): s

Here's another one even though only a bit better, not perfectly finished but gives an idea on the potential: Graded & further greenish saturated as unsharpened image test with highlights under control, those 100Mbps acquisition don't seem to hold their breath so bad at all, I think and place my bet on it (from YT sample BTW!) -- have seen those solid reds to gain nasty artifacts along steppy edges much quicker I tend to find there in some other similar sources:

Seems nobody did care... here goes some unofficial though -- promising to say the least (Part II): Add a glass filter in front of it and here you have -- IQ resolution looks like pretty decent as usual in general for these aerial 4K capture devices of nowadays: And here's finally a grab from my desktop now -- control the highlights and you'll find your HDR aerials outcome well under $1000, for 2/3rds of the price actually: Not the best but the only one to offer this without going to post: What about official footage?

A cinema camera indeed... ; ) And what about the aerials, @AaronChicago ?

Limited internet from here now. Can anyone post some grabs please? Thanks :-)

$100 less than Mavic Air under $700 mark from this July 1 in so short 20 days to come seems pretty cool, to say the least. And the finest example of what an European company can do without endless delays, tease and customary waiting : ) My very 100 Kudos to them! : -) https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/06/parrot-responds-to-the-mavic-air-with-its-own-folding-drone/ http://bestdroneunderhalfapound.com/anafi-parrots-folding-4k-drone/ http://www.euroinvestor.com/news/2018/06/06/parrot-launches-anafi/13839303

Don, I am also wondering as much as Chris actually, so I think you can always stand corrected that one anyway. Downvotes are killing this location as well some other ones. You should all count on it... E : -)
