Tim Sewell reacted to Mattias Burling in New Panasonic G9 - multiaspect sensor?
Here lays the misunderstanding.
"A little better", "top display looks pro", "a little faster", etc.
For a full time stills shooter these are huge features. Flat out deal breakers.
Remember, your needs aren't rarely everyone else's.

Tim Sewell got a reaction from kidzrevil in Blade Runner 2049 bombs at box office
I find it easier to get my kids to read than to watch 'old' movies. The visual entertainment made for them now gets them into a terrible habit of requiring a beat in every scene to keep them interested - even what seemed like fast paced movies when I was younger now seem interminably drawn out to them now. It's a terrible shame and I can't see it getting much better - I think as time goes on the enjoyment of 20th century cinema will become a micro-niche pursuit.

Tim Sewell got a reaction from hyalinejim in "The Uncertainty Has Settled", a feature film shot using Magic Lantern raw video
I'm sure Rupert Murdoch, Viscount Rothermere and Richard Desmond, who between them control the larger part of UK media (except the BBC) will be interested to know that they're lefties.

Where are you talking about? In my country your statement is factually incorrect. Do you have a list of places where it applies or are you claiming its globaly?

Tim Sewell got a reaction from kidzrevil in Blade Runner 2049 bombs at box office
Yet even though growth slowed to 1% last year, 2016 was still the all-time record for global box office - in the UK it was far and away the best ever year. I think you're correct, though, in the case of films that aren't aimed at teenagers - for more thoughtful fare the trend is definitely towards home viewing. Who knows what will happen, but it will be a sad day when movies like BR2014, Dunkirk and so on can't be shown on the big screen, where their visual beauty can be properly appreciated.

I think we often see that massively-hyped films with great opening weekends often fail to sustain their momentum as word of mouth gets around that they're not actually that great! Hopefully BR2049 will do the opposite (I haven't actually seen it yet, but I'm salivating at what I've seen so far of Deakins's photography).

Tim Sewell reacted to meudig in Why are modern TV's defaulted to horrible settings out the box?
True.
Although I've never gone to an electronics store and seen a "real nice picture" on a TV.
Oh, well I think I did once, but I suspect Philip Bloom had been there and already turned off all the extra bells and whistles.
Thank you Philip!

Tim Sewell reacted to Turboguard in Samyang Cine Lenses? Worth the money?
Used the Cine DS 10mm for wide shots in this old silly video.
Also this still is grabbed from a frame using it. Both shot on the BMPCC

Tim Sewell got a reaction from Aussie Ash in Rokinon/Samyang Cine DS lenses
I have the 85, 50, 35 and 24 - I had the 16 but sold it. I'm sure they do have high repair rates for a rental house - I mean, they're robust enough for general usage but I wouldn't want to subject them to much rough and tumble - they're clearly mainly plastic budget lenses. Nonetheless, for me, they perform really well. The 50, especially, I find to have a lovely character and almost a 3D quality in the way it separates subject from foreground. My set are also all fairly close in colour rendition. I've got a whole shelf full of older manual lenses that I like to use for both stills and video from time to time, but the Samyangs are what come out if I have the opportunity to put together something 'proper'.

Tim Sewell got a reaction from Kisaha in New YouTubers and bloggers, who to follow...
Rigjob's Hillbilly Grip Truck is entertaining and informative - he doesn't post very often as he only does stuff when he has time, but what he does put up there never fails to give one a giggle and some good on-the-job info: https://www.youtube.com/user/Hillbillygriptruck/videos

Tim Sewell got a reaction from Phil A in Good cinematic examples using Sony A7S/A7R
The guy joins the forum, looking for pointers to clips that in the forums' users' opinions are cinematic-looking and he gets greeted like that by one of the moderators. Wow - I bet he'll be recommending EOSHD to his pals as a real friendly and helpful place.
