    Huuow reacted to Dimitris Stasinos in Lars von Trier returns to Cannes and people seem to have taken personal offence to his fictional serial killer   
    “A filmmaker is always provoking some reaction from an audience.”
    I totally agree Andrew. But the means a filmmaker uses to achieve this can define the quality of his art (at least from my point of view, anyone can disagree). The easiest way to challenge your audience is by serving them scenes with genitals being cut with a pair of scissors or crashed by stones and then calling them puritans based on their totally justified reactions. Is it a bad thing that most people can’t stand sadism & graphic violence in cinema? This doesn’t have to do with a pair of tits being “shown” but with a pair of tits being “cut off” (plus children being shot). And you are calling this an antidote? I don’t get this but who knows, maybe i am a puritan too. But in any case i consider my self as lucky for not enjoying his films.

    Huuow got a reaction from Marco Tecno in New Ryzen 8 core 16 thread CPU   
    Would not advise that... the consens half a year ago was premiere eats fast clocking cpu preferably with 8 cores.. gpu is "neglegtable", and don´t go lower than 32gb ram... especially after effects renders significantly faster with more ram.. resolve on the other hand relies heavily on gpu and does suggest a 8gb card...

    Huuow got a reaction from luminescence in Stolen GH2, GH3 and lenses in France   
    sorry to hear... I lost my whole camera setup years ago this way.. in france.. along with my car and everything else lol.. I tried local markets the next days.. those markets where people just have a blanket on the floor and on it what looks like the inside of a travelling bag... had no luck. the car was seen one or two month later, two black guys trying to cross border to england... well.. english border control did not react fast enough and they got away..
    since your case is already 20 days old.. i guess you are looking for a needle that someone might have dropped into a haystack, or somewhere else... :/

    Huuow got a reaction from Miklos Nemeth in 5 reasons why I will be getting a Panasonic GH5   
    I kinda like my GH3... had the choice between Alpha99 and Mark III back then.. didn´t make an upgrade to the GH4, the 4k was not necessary for me at that time and the iq didn´t seem to improve significantly... Gh5 will be another crossing, stay in m43 system or go another way.. the sensor size, with its low light flaws is a real downer but Panasonics commitment of delivering surprises is indeed loyalty worthy... though.. it will probably just be the small extra tip on the scale if two cameras/systems tie...
    I hope they improve their jpg/color engine... I´d rather take a lovely out of cam picture in favour of grading every single log clip just the little bit better..

    Huuow got a reaction from Zach Goodwin in First "Pro" Job, would really value your advice!   
    stop worrying about your equipment.. it´s fine  ..ask yourself of the legal status of the project.. where will it be shown.. filming people in public for commercial is.. well.. not excatly legal.. at least not in my country.. and remember that every sound you hear.. if there is music somewhere in the distance.. you have to license for that right of use... I´d advice get in contact with the expo, you probably need a permission..  and also make up the story you want to tell.. don´t just hold your camera on things 4 days long.. good luck, do it and enjoy your learning curve

    Huuow got a reaction from Cinegain in Is the majority online really idiots? (Ghostbusters Trailer)   
    All fair and well, discussable but not the main point I was referring to.
    Heres my concern: by mixing transgender and other minorities with woman in the equality debate, you are simply draging womans rights down, leaving them debatable and attaching a certain level of ridiculousness. They are 50% of worlds population.. trans people are what? 0.1? No, I don´t think they have the same right of awareness. Women do not have an obligation to help everyone, they will only come out as losers as your example so finely presents: That Austrian music award: 0 Woman won a price, even in the femal section the winner was Conchita, a man (and plz don´t be fooled to think that the best just happened to be man)
    I have never heard of that discussion about St. Nicholas and his beard, and I agree, if true, it is simply face palm worthy. On the other side, there are customs with a questionable origin.. I think you do know the game "wer hat Angst vorm schwarzen Mann?" Is it a tradition worthy keeping? Yes, in the museum of folk studies..
    So, back to Ghostbusters. It has nothing to do with beeing politically correct (I know you agree with me here). It´s just a female crew which happens to be so unbelievable disturbing. I just wanted to highlight the fact it sparks the "what´s next" debate is a sneaky way of patriarchy defending their lands.

    Huuow reacted to Pascal Garnier in The very underestimated problem of RADIOACTIVE lenses   
    There's no such thing as a "perfectly safe nuclear industry".  Try saying that to people living in a 5000 mile radius round Tchernobyl or Fukushima.  
    There's not a single nuclear plant which has insurance, simply cos they can't find an insurance company willing to cover the risk.
     
    In Belgium, with it's "perfectly safe nuclear industry", 2 of the 3 plants have had to shutdown due to tiny microscopic cracks in the plant's core.  Noone inside the perfectly safe nuclear industry knows how to solve it, or what to do with the core and the rest of the plant.  The plants will very probably never startup again.  
     
    Nuclear energy creates a wonderful legacy for our children and great granchildren : nuclear waste.  Which will be here at least as long as we are.  Plenty of it was dumped in the oceans, is leaking now and we have no idea what to do with the rest of the waste that's stored all over the planet right now.

    There's plenty of sustainable alternatives, the nuclear lobby is heavily subsidized (even after +40 years of development they can't function without heavy national and supranational funding).  A recent EU report was censored because it mentioned how nuclear and fossil energy are subsidized more than sustainable forms of energy.
     
    I'd rather live nearby an ugly windmill than within 1000 miles of a nuclear plant.

    Huuow got a reaction from Ivan Lietaert in Lens recommendations for video & photo on the GH4?   
    I agree with Inazuma... 35mm (ff) is a pretty sweet focal length
     
    I´d say get the Panasonic 12-35. The autofocus is very fast, excellent if you are in a hurry with either filming or photography. It has an IS, so you can do some dirty shots without looking too dirty... and the olympus 45 f1.8 for portrait reasons.
    Later on the Panasonic 35-100 to complete a good zoom range and the olympus 17 f1.8.
    If you have the budget, also as Inazuma said, you could switch the two olympus with the equivalent voigtländers 17.5 f0.95 and 45 f0.95...

    so basically if you deliver HD, a FF lens + speedbooster convert to a bunch of primes and two zoom lenses, lol
     
    source: FF 35mm   HD - normal adapter: 70mm HD - speedbooster: 49mm HD - normal adapter - tele mode: 161mm HD - speedbooster - tele mode: 112.7mm Quad HD - converted to HD - normal adapter: 87.5 - 175mm Quad HD - converted to HD - speedbooster: 61.25 - 122.5mm   that lens should better have hell of a resolution

    10 bit is the magic word. I too own the GH3 and love it, upgrading will take a while, but when... I´ll never go with an 8 bit codec. Be quick, first one takes it all.
