On a not totally unrelated topic… I decided to (try to) move away from the huge corporations and bought the Punkt. MC03 phone (Swiss, built in Germany), it runs aphyOS derived, as I understand it, from grapheneOS an AOSP build.  And it is a great phone. Secure, relatively cheap (compared to Apple…) and does what a phone should do. So far so good. But… it doesn’t run my banking or airline or other travel apps. So it can only ever be a second phone. A statement piece or, if you prefer, virtue signalling.
Doesn’t this encapsulate the essence and problems inherent to all “punk” software? It may be superior. It may be supporting small business or individuals working hard to produce great products. But it is unlikely to meet our expectations out of the box. Until society drops that sense of entitlement I fear genuine effort won’t be rewarded. And, of course, society has become conditioned by the Corporate mentality to such an extent that we think we want precisely what they can give us.
That said…  this is all astonishingly impressive! 

Running locally on just 12GB VRAM is a remarkable feat in its own right. This could open up some interesting possibilities for indie filmmakers, especially when it comes to VFX. Being able to generate VFX elements and integrate them into actual footage, without spending a fortune on post-production, could be a real game changer.
More creative freedom without sacrificing control over the final image. And at a fraction of the cost.

When you run code in RAM you can do pretty much anything like Magic Lantern or the Sigma Fp hacks, so raw video, open gate and V-LOG for the GX80 is definitely on the cards. The S9 has a 64bit CPU so plenty of power to play with there.
Got to explore the hardware now and build the first proper feature for it so keep an eye on the blog for further developments!

With the help of our AI friends, the first Panasonic hack since the GH2 has arrived.
So far the S9 and GX80 have the hack.
It auto-executes code from the card at boot, enabling the same kind of range of mods Magic Lantern does but on Lumix cameras for the first time. It takes compiled C code binaries and Arm64 code.
The CPU is extremely powerful... 64bit vs the 32bit EOS R5.
More info soon.
GM5 and GX9 to follow

Exactly it's a multiplier not a remove the human from the loop clanker.
More people should embrace it!

This cam is one of my faves (EAG :- )

I think a lot of people don't understand what this revolution is :- )

I have seen that, thanks. Idk, how much more recording time you'll get shooting 2:1? It's my understanding that the camera can only give an estimate based on uncompressed cDNG not with lossless. Right now with OG3.5K on a 128gb card, the camera shows 6-7 minutes. Google AI told me, I could expect 10-11 with lossless, which is great but still not enough to justify, considering how many V90 SD cards I'd have to buy.
The OG2.5K is so good that 30 minutes (roughly in lossless) to a V60 card is perfect for my needs.
Don't get me wrong, I prefer the 3.5K, and would consider it with an SSD, I suppose, if I look at it like Hitchcock would... shoot VistaVision with a 1.85:1 release. I also have to research, test, if the hack is on a card, can I just leave it there and still record to SSD. I haven't tested it enough to the point where I needed to format cards, but having to delete clips, or upload the scripts every time is kinda annoying.
All that said, I have been swamped with work and family stuff, so I haven't had much time to mess with it. So far, just my first half hour outing, but this has completely changed my entire gameplay going forward and I have been rearranging some buying/selling of lenses, and working on some scripts to utilize it.
If anyone is interested, here's another frame from the OG2K mode with the Minolta 35mm 1.8... the other two I posted were at iso 3200 and I think this one was 100... sorry I couldn't find a cat to shoot...

Local inference on 12GB VRAM, alpha mattes, 16-bit EXR, ACEScg and 3D-guided rendering are a different proposition from generating random clips from text prompts.
If temporal consistency, edge quality and render times hold up in production, this could significantly change what smaller VFX teams can achieve without expensive infrastructure.
The real question is no longer whether AI has a place in filmmaking, but how quickly production workflows will adapt to it.

I would have published the demo already, but I’m currently having a problem with GUI rotation between portrait and landscape modes — it used to work, and then suddenly stopped.
 
RAW/RAWC does a nice job of compressing the full usable dynamic range of the smartphone sensor.I'm still making little adjustments 

Build 169 uploaded: https://groups.google.com/g/rawlogcam-closed-testers
Most important test ROT button for landscape mode. In my Motorola Edge 50 Pro it stopped working.
Test RAW and RAW+C for dropped frames—upper diagnostic messages. Use the METER to scan the scene for a few seconds and get the average exposure. The HDR button sets a shorter exposure time to keep highlights. In the COLOR section, you can switch off sharpening (Edge HQ). For IT8, push REF to load the reference file, then push the grid to adjust the rectangle, and push it again to auto-fit. Astro mode in the HIDE section is still under construction. Test DNG export in PROCESS RAW.

Right now, I'm still debugging the GUI (portrait/landscape), cleaning up the code, and trying to push the Oppo Reno 2Z to its limits on RAW capture, see calibrated 2K samples below. Will post an update soon.

Vectroscope added to main screen and RAW post-processing.
 
 

Update:
Added a real RAW preview Added 2K RAW with anti-aliasing. RAW-to-H.265 conversion is now much, much faster. I’m working on automatic CC PPV2 color target readout and calibration. I’m also working on the website and have uploaded some temporary sample footage here: https://agacia.pl/tmp/

Added: Support for ColorChecker and CCPPV2 video targets. See:
how to
Currently working on:
Audio sync for Zoom H1e: When the user clicks the "+Audio" button, the app automatically searches the connected device or folder. Auto Edit / Quick Export: When multiple clips are selected, the app can automatically export them from RAW to H.264 or H.265 with a predefined total length for easy sharing. Minor adjustments: Users can make small manual tweaks to the edit before exporting.

When the algorithm finds an audio recording, the "+Audio" button turns green (batch processing is possible). Another screenshot shows the experimental AI edit and halation window in RAW adjust.

 
 

 
 
 
 

Added 1.33x anamorphic support. Just tap the icon and you’re ready to use it. The preview will be automatically desqueezed, and the RAW Adjust view will automatically rotate to landscape mode with the 1.33x icon displayed.
GPU and h265 (ISP) modes are also desqueezed.
You can crop the image to remove vignetting, or use the 20:9 crop to fill your phone screen as much as possible.

Crop can be scaled and moved. 

I think a lot of people don't understand what this revolution is :- )

I suspected as much... 
I have been attempting to use the gopro ils in a unconventional way, after my dad passed away we had a bit of a clean up. A box or two  of slides turned up, so i did some research and it seems the jjc slide copier does the job, so one of them was ordered. 

It seems to work ok once its assembled i have had the olympus 60mm macro lens attached to the e-m10 ii and i get ok images i think. There's a strong colour cast and a bit soft but for the nostalgia factor alone it wins, i guess. Oddly enough inside photos with flash come up decently sharp. I should add i suspect these slides are probably older than me. 🙂

The 60mm olympus doesn't work on the ils as the olympus is electronic and ils has no contacts and it came as no surprise that it didnt work lol. With the mission1 ils the only macro lens i have is a pentax m42 100mm f4. The issue i have is i think i'm let down by the minimum focal length on the lens is longer than what the jjc allows for. Wondering if some extension tubes attached on the front of the lens would help at all?.  Its that or i buy a shorter focal length macro lens, which i'm not keen to do at the moment seeing its mostly just an expiriment. 

Does this still look like a "GoPro"?
