    JurijTurnsek got a reaction from heart0less in Sony ZV-1   
    The EODHD forum's toughest pill to swallow: even the best image quality, the best low light ISO performance, the best AF, the best lightning, the best sound, the creamiest of bokeh cannot sell shitty/niche content. You need a good story/performance or at least a gripping reality soap opera (which can be told by a workhorse HD camera, that has been forgotten by GAS).

    I believe the main problem with a larger sensor is fitting the lens. The S20 Ultra is 8.8 mm thick which is considerably larger than the competition. Making the phone thicker will turn away quite a few consumers.
    The lens thickness is also the main reason why most tele-cameras on smartphones are so bad. They often just use a smaller sensor but with a similar focal length as the main camera. For marketing it seems better to have 3 cameras even if cropping the main camera will give similar results. The S20 Ultra is one of the few exceptions that use a periscope lens, which in theory could be an improvement.

    The S20 Ultra actually has a bigger sensor (1/1.33 instead of 1/1.7), but seems like a failure.  The 960 fps on the S20 ultra is even upscaled 480 fps...
    The S20/S20+ has the same sensor size as the new Sony.

    Vivo details their gyro sensor stabilization - 3x movement compensation in comparison to traditional OIS. Now, the sample video is fishy: comparing against OIS for walking, which is insane, since EIS produces superb results and that should be the benchmark. Anyway, until a reputable reviewer puts it through its paces, you can't really be sure if this is any better than EIS (but should be great when combined).

    If the hyped up specs pan out, the 6K price would not be outrageous. It is a HALO product that will generate a a lot of buzz for the RF mount, just like their extremely expensive lenses. They just need a good R6 to sell to the masses.
    If yo are going to use 8K RAW, you shouldn't balk at that price either, since the expenses don't stop there.

    Yes, the stacked sensor with DRAM is the real reason for the faster sensor readout.  But the cost to include the DRAM on a 108mp sensor is probably too cost prohibitive for a while yet, so in effect the greater MP is limiting the sensor readout speed.  I prefer Sony's approach and hope that others will follow.  We don't need higher MP or 8k for a phone camera.

    The dragged out marketing hype campaign sure points to specs being overhyped. Seems like Canon is creating this awareness of a technologically advanced body for people to form their opinion on it before any real testing is done and then just brush away the caveats with rose colored glasses.

    This represents the type of comments I will come back to when the misty eyed corona pandemic induced haze of wishful thinking goes away.
    Thinking the R5 is going to outperform the C500ii for a fraction of the price is so delusional it’s heartbreaking. Do you really think the Canon engineers have somehow come up with a way to defy physics? That the R5 sensor and body will magically not be affected by or generate heat? Or that they have conjured up a 45MP sensor that has such an incredible readout speed that rolling shutter won’t be an issue? Or that they mystically now have leap frogged the Sony sensors with regards to dynamic range?
    Get a fucking grip.

    JurijTurnsek got a reaction from Video Hummus in Skateboarding empty LA streets during the pandemic lockdown   
    Skateboarding the empty streets sure is tempting right now and can even be considered relatively safe if you skate less frequented places (no viruses on sufraces). However, even when practicing even the most basic tricks, there is a small possibility that a rolled ankle will get you a hospital visit and we all know how great that would be right now. That is why I am sticking to hiking less popular trails and nearby woods for the time being.
    This week my wife and I were able to visit an incredibly popular hiking vantage point and have it to ourselves with incredible weather.

    Dunno guys, maybe Trump is just going to do a Thanos and rid your country of non-workforce capable elderly and reap the rewards of economic stability in his second term. Biden does not stand a chance of winning, unfortunately.
