I had a feeling the case was going to be dismissed. Here's why - Nikon was approaching the case with evidence that Red should never have been granted the patent in the first place. None of the other companies Red sued took this approach. My guess is that Red realized there was a good chance they could lose the case. Rather than risk having their patent taken away, they walked away instead.

This is a superb article! Very, very useful. Would it be possible for you to upload the camera original clips somewhere? I would love to play with them in Davinci.

Blackmagic has released not one, but four Ultimatte hardware keyers!

And from the sound of the blurbs, the technology is truly state of the art.
It will be interesting to see whether they're really as good as they claim.
I hope they are.

The footage looks bloody fantastic! Thanks so much for posting! The only thing that bothers me is it appears to be excessively sharpened. Is there a way to turn down the sharpening in-camera (uh, phone)?
 
Also, I would love to see some 4K 60P footage.

Some observations:
The clip is obviously dropping frames. No doubt the SD card the person popped into the camera wasn't fast enough to keep up.
The clip was shot with a frame rate of 25P. I figured this out by interpreting the clip at different frame rates and at 25 the sound syncs perfectly with the picture. You can hear the clicks on the camera when the operator was changing the exposure. Each click should sync with a change in brightness of the picture. And this happens when the clip is playing back at 25P.
All in all a good showing.
