Consumers? Prosumers? Or craftsmen/professional players? ; ) I usually tend to mistrust of corporate goodwill... Really : ) Jim and Jarred have been camera passionate manufacturers. Who else now?

WOW

haha blame these "fantastic" AI-like tools of today! I wanted to click to let it expressed a 'big thanks like' as not so rare about something coming from yours or @kye or@mercer among some other favs of mine and the damned button on my touchscreen went to some 'confused like' instead... and "they" even call it intelligent world we all live in nowadays where machines click on our behalf if we don't stand corrected them as next follow-up ; ) sorta policeman 24/24 : P Let the machines rule over our heads and we will see all where we'll end : X

When I see someone to ask why or if this or that camera is Netflix or BBC (for those old-timers hehe) approved... I wonder to myself if such individual knows what he or she is exactly doing along so complicated industry... LOL : ) To be professional is to know how to control this anxiety to begin with ;- ) Learn your craft before anything!

Wait! Not listed as one of the Netflix authorized (Approved... no less, insane!) cameras?? Really? No way! Who wants such crap of device? *cough cough* Who will buy to exhibit it anyway? LMAO hehe Sorry guys, couldn't resist! Marty is one of those who will fully understand me! Fortunately, not the only one! ;- )

No, Osmo Pocket series is plainly the best option for your intended use :- )

Indeed and shame on the assholes running their chairs there in the native company! I have nothing against to those who have bought it : ) I mean, forget the case of the ressurection of Rolleiflex... : D To not cry here! The killers are those who let it happen, true criminals... Unfortunately people have no memory and no clue how to run a business other than cleaning their arses :- ) At times, along an agreement we don't necessarily have the best we want but what is possible to deal full of trade-offs. It's a pity to see that name there. It hurts. People should be responsible for their own actions, not to see such brand value to be thrown into the gutter. A bummer, the brand equity too. Nice posts BTW.

In a line? «1921: The Olympus brand was introduced in February 1921. This logo was used for microscopes and other products. Brochures and newspaper ads for cameras also used this logo. The OLYMPUS TOKYO logo is still in use today.» From official source.

Exactly? : ) I don't see anything wrong on a transition period, just the fact the value of a brand like Olympus to vanish into thin air when this means an investment of decades if not a whole century... Brand registered in 1921. First camera with that exact name in 1936. It hurts only to hear that. And I'm speaking not only as camera lover but manager :- )

That said, I obviously agree with everything other written : ) I doubt though for any grace period over that or the lawyers working there follow the norm and are no less stupid too! LOL :- )

That's not killing : ) No one can kill what by itself is already killed ; ) In any case, who or what let it to be killed is still out of the tune, i.e., plain stupid, so the premise stands. To erect a brand is not a little thing. The problem is many of those who do it have no clue at all about it :- ) Many of players working in this industry and many others by the way are full stupid. The trouble I see here or in other places is that many geeks like us because they feel it that way tend deify their stupid decisions and justify them like they are not.

To create a second brand is a whole distinct story though ;- )

To kill a brand is the most stupid thing ever any time at any rate, always. These people never learn. If something makes the human being to be stupid other than the human race extermination is this thing. A change is far to be humans killing human things. No notion at all for what capital means. - EAG :- )

I am all pro small devices... BTW currently in love with the (sharp) 8K 24p AcePro without mention some usual handy simple tricks to make it closer to a full camera experience so, why not smartphones and alike? ; ) The fact stands though, no matter what: Is there a much more significant experience that the pleasure impact other than handling a real camera with a lens attached and full control through a lens ring? Now once again, Samsung. Pity they had abandoned the way (forget the British blonde and focus on the leftover as myself these days collecting a few of those glass marvelous pieces plenty of technology : ) camera users could find the pleasure to hold a lens and discover how it is everything connected with organic form factor shooting much more than just point and shoot. After all, the writer makes the words as much as exquisite cuisine distinguishes from fast food. Who like me loves or knows how to appreciate an Italian ice cream or Michelangelo Antonioni as for instance, knows very well what I'm taking about ;- )

; ) Win98... LOL I see you've scrolled down the page, very well : D hey I had already posted one before along this thread earlier (where's yours? ; ) https://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic/43645-selfies/ Among a few other trying to put this environment much friendly than an anonymous online corner...

Not the best of the news we would like to hear anyway, here is a fresh first review...

Same impression going on here... Looks funny the first footage seen over here is not from a studio setup! LOL Looks like they should have trading names between both models instead : D Curious to check it accuracy too... ; ) Seems this one is what the other one has missed to be, size and convenience ;- )

Here is now for finishing funds: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/make-believers/murder-mystery-romance-the-orange-of-daydreams/description

Among many other new goodies for sure, looks like sweet to have on set: https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/9/24030378/asus-zenscreen-fold-oled-ces-2024

Didn't test the 2.5K hack yet. I know of a supplier to sell them for rather cheap... : ) Anyone can write me in private just for the case to be interested to buy 1 or the 7 units in stock! :- )

This camera model has arrived to my hands because of the 3D feature going along 45mm f/1.8 and fell immediately in love for the retro look and form factor. Love its small size. The 1.6x crop of the 4K mode doesn't bother me at all when there are good wideangle zooms you can add there such as Tokinas 11-20mm f/2.8 or my 11-16mm f/2.8 (PL mount mod). I didn't! LOL ;- )

Interesting comparison... to show how good this tiny device is:

But if I will tell you that I had to resist to 7x NX500 units all in a once just yesterday... in the same bundle. Will you believe me? You can. And I've already bought a couple of them before! LOL But I've tried to find reasons to buy different focal lengths samples of NX mount glass just to follow... : D Disclaimer: Love the videos of this guy... :- )

It's a bit like a blanket... if you push one side, the other one will end undercovered LOL ; ) Maybe 'cause of that I bought a couple of Zenfone 7 Pro devices with their retractable camera. Overheating and much of a distraction a smartphone is, are a PITA anyway. The AcePro will give it a try. I wonder how those Beastgrip glass add-ons will work out. That anamorphic adapter in both 1.33x and 1.55x versions look like sweet, though ;- ) I wonder about this:

You need to click that link up there to find my "big arms" if any ; ) to hold that thing... : D Now go back there and take a look on the " t-e-r-r-i-b-l-e " stuff they are able to extract from there... Or better call it terrific?! Well, I end confused! LMAO ; ) But you need to watch it to begin with, as usual, buddy ;- ) The toys these guys invent nowadays... And so lovely to think a hard case is still a hard case, isn't it? LOL : ) That said, you know what ideas that Beastgrip (BTW as disclaimer, I am customer of them) outfit gives to me? The 37mm thread to couple to the AcePro before or as alternative to a Back-Bone release and extra glass use from either lens adapters, filters, suchlike :- ) A mobile phone is still a mobile phone. Maybe iPhones are less phones than the leftover but personally I've found them to provide a good fun for a ride but when overheat they are just a brick... In any case, when not, you can obviously forget them as communications device if you're using them for something else other than its primary use. Because a camera is not a phone. There are many times you won't have any other device with you and the best camera is the one you hold with you in your hands when needed. It doesn't exist that, only a camera : ) You buy a system, not a camera. Full of many lenses and so on. A camera looks a camera. I give you an example, no, two. June 29, 2023. Public event. People don't like to be shot. Law is at shooter's disposal. Public place in that jurisdiction means consentment for acquisition. Its usage is something different, in any case no one can impede you to shoot in any way other than when start to threat the camera crew. January 1, 2024. Identical episode. In the beginning, only because of the capture devices used, people in a public event had no idea they were filmed. So, spontaneous footage with people dancing and so on was possible to gather and gather. Until the moment, people realize where the cameras are. End of fun. End of good footage. Here are two examples where the PRO device is the one capable to still produce footage in the memory card or any other storage location. Get the idea? This means a lot to those involved in the field. The point is the technology is there. These people of Back-Bone, Beastgrip and so one, they are solid players to really help the independent film communities. Playing the part of the film crews twenty years ago doesn't help at all, just for the sake of the art and this craft, if not anything else :- ) Speaking of devil...
