    Emanuel reacted to kye in Camera overheating is pretty much incomprehensible at this point   
    Gerald just dropped a video talking about how he has discovered that camera overheating tests are almost completely unreliable.
    TLDR; he tested the same camera in the same environment with the same settings, and got results ranging between 55 minutes and 8.5 hours.
    Here's the video, which talks about it in much much greater detail:
    I think this pretty much means that camera overheating is an un-testable risk for any camera without a fan.  
    This is because:
    The tester probably didn't tell you what ambient temp they tested at The tester definitely didn't tell you what airflow and ventilation was present The tester probably didn't test all the modes you will use The manufacturer might update firmware after the testing and completely invalidate the data The test won't have been in the situation you're recording in
    and, lastly, in case you're still with me... The test is probably a random number generator anyway I think that overheating is now officially the camera boogyman.
    Sceptical of overheating in general? I've personally missed moments when my iPhone overheated........and that's a camera that no-one has identified as having a thermal management problem.

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

    Cool film, only let down by the poor codec and lack of ND.  I understand why you'd want to have a sponsor and why you'd want to tell a story with a phone in comparison to not telling it at all, but if you had freedom to choose and you were already getting a bunch of people on set and putting all that time and effort into something and then a phone sure isn't my first choice.
    Same comments as above, but you can definitely see the stronger codec in this piece compared to the Xaiomi.

    Short film directed and written by Jessica Yu-Li Henwick who has starred in various big budget productions for cinema and tv, such as "Game of Thrones" or "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery". She is also acting in the leading role. The film was shot pretty barebones on a Xiaomi 11 with a gimbal being put to use.
    Here is a very cool interview, talking about finding the right DP, why she shot on a phone and requirements to film without extra lenses or big accessories. Also about scheduling and preparing the shoot while being on set starring in "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" and where she drew inspiration from for her film.
    Great interview and insight about the filmmaker, her film and her process. I really enjoyed film, cinematography and image quality as well. The other film above my post looks equally appealing to me btw. So here are the article and interview with Jessica Yu-Li Henwick:

    Not this again...
    You were the one that made the case against 24p, so you provide the proof that it's inferior.
    We understand, from your posts, that you are most likely a teenager or young adult, and maybe nobody has ever told you how the real world works but your claims, statements and wishes aren't proof that 24p is inferior...

    That's more like the performance I remember from previous models.
    Field curvature is a thing, which he doesn't test in the video, so that might be the cause of some edge softness.  For example here is an article with graphs:
    https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2019/11/practical-use-of-field-curvature-graphs-the-50mm-primes/
    It is odd that such a setup would have these issues more than the lens itself, considering that I thought the setup was just the lens projecting onto ground glass that the phone focused on.  Or are there additional optics inside the mechanism?  If so, that's probably the cause.
    The focus peaking not showing up is just because the setup is very soft, this is a common problem when using vintage lenses.

    Emanuel reacted to PannySVHS in Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4k G2 - now shipping   
    Image looks like from an p4k test video imo. @kye I find the video ok but pretty plain.
    Cage, ssd clamp and further rigging are shown in another video of the same youtuber. With the specific cage and external ssd it already looks looks pretty big, almost as big as the m2k with a 3" monitor rigged to the back, look at around 7min 50s. Knowing the great quality the p4k is capable of, this camera is no slouch in the image quality department, of course. It will be great for broadcasting and streaming for sure. I won't trade it in for my m2k though. 🙂

    Still resisting, only a Smallrig half case for the X-S20 - just to prevent bottom mark to when I (maybe) sell it in some years.

    Of course, when you are restrained, temptations rains from everywhere. Was looking for almost 2 years to find a Olympus Pen F (because it is the most gorgeous digital camera that I've saw) or a LX100 MK II (that solve the biggest problem with my OG LX100 - crappy JPGs) without success, and now just find a LX100 II with a good price and pratically new, and a pristine Pen F with the 17mm f/2.8 with an AMAZING price.

    But resisted. In the end of the day, they would sit unused - even my X-S20 is subutilized these days, working like a slave here...

    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 ;- )
