    Speaking of what high-end images actually look like, here are some 8K scans of IMAX 5-perf from Oppenheimer.
    https://dam.gettyimages.com/universal/oppenheimer
    The files with filenames like GF-number seem to be 3K, but the other ones seem to be 8K TIFF files - 133Mb each!
    How do they look?  Strong colours, often strong contrast, not sharp....  like cinema.

    It's back!
    I skipped through ARRIs YT channel to look for 1080p videos that had it, and I found a couple of interesting things:
    ARRI upload videos in all sorts of resolutions, 4K, 1080p, 1440p, even 720p, even recently The 1080p uploads they did only have the Enhanced Bitrate option very recently - the 1080p ones uploaded more than a couple of months ago didn't have the option This video has it:
    Here's a comparison.  This is the 1080p video displayed full-screen on my UHD display and then a screen-grab taken.
    Standard 1080p:

    Enhanced Bitrate 1080p:

    Standard 1080p:

    Enhanced Bitrate 1080p:

    Oddly, it's not available on this 1080p upload, which is more recent than the above.
    @kaylee  Do you have it enabled yet?

    Production process:
    Shot on Panavision Cameras and anamorphic lenses Using Kodak and Fuji negative films and Kodak projection film No digital intermediary - editing was done on the negative The image quality that blew you away was the state of the art in colour science in 1989.  Here we are in 2023, 34 years later and we have 8K RAW but it still doesn't look even remotely like that.
    It's a pity everyone wanted more pixels instead of better pixels.

    Instead of using adjustment layer for color grading use/switch to timeline in color panel. You can apply color grading and everything else with nodes on individual clips but also exactly the same way on all clips in the timeline by simply choosing one or the other.
    This is how I typically do it when would like to apply a color grade for all clips and this is in general one of the ways to do it. Saw this from a Hollywood/Company 3 colorist 🙂

    kaylee reacted to zerocool22 in Davinci resolve render individual clips with adjustment layer   
    Hi guys,
    Something that annoys me so much is whenever you render individual clips in davinci resolve and are using a adjustment layer, it does not render the color grade from the adjustment layer (unless you make compound clips from each clip). 
    Does anybody have a fix for this? If not would be a good feature request for bm.

    Yeah, they're pretty remarkable.  Zooming out is an easier task as often the edges of the image don't include people, are often out-of-focus, and are usually of little consequence to the viewer of the image.
    My take on AI image generation is that it will replace the generic soul-less images that are of people that no-one knows and no-one cares about.  It'll be sort-of generated stock images.
    I think it will be a very very long time before anyone wants AI generated photos or video of people they know rather than the real thing, except in special cases, just because they're not real.
    AI has been good enough to write fiction for literally decades, but hasn't overtaken people yet.  Reviewers thought this 1993 romance novel was better than the majority of human-written books in the genre: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_This_Once

    As several people have mentioned here any gopro with wifi enabled, usb powered and using your phone ... you can even record if you see something interesting. 

    Or any cheap wifi surveillance camera that does not require a plan/cloud.... 20-30$ but the quality is quite bad...

    kaylee reacted to Davide DB in An end of an era...   
    Over the years I have invested so much in taking M43 underwater (GH2 GH3 GH4 GH5) that just the idea that it has reached the end of the line pisses me off like a beast.
    I am still convinced that M43 is the best format in existence for underwater shooting. The size of the sensor and lens allows for minimal lens ports, and with modern wet lenses you get a very compact kit (housing and port/wet lens).
    Switching to FF while maintaining the same quality means having an underwater kit at least twice the size and a bare expense of at least 20K euros if not more.  Also, given the current availability of underwater accessories, it almost certainly means saying goodbye to Panasonic and jumping into the hands of Sony or Canon.
    If I were a professional earning from underwater work it would be an attractive investment. but for an amateur like me the jump is almost impractical unless you are really rich.
    What a shame.

    I know the feeling...not a m4/3 fan myself, but the feeling of an era coming to an end with letting go of beloved camera systems. For me it was my FS100, I got so much out of that camera over hundreds of projects it still holds a special place of nostalgia in my heart, even though it was technically a terrible camera in many ways.

    After my close friend decided to upgrade to the Lumix S5 II X he gave me an incredible deal on his Lumix S5 that I couldn't pass up. As a result I just finished packing up my trusty GH5, 12-35mm mk II, 35-100mm mk I, 25mm, and 14mm to ship off to MPB. For the first time in nearly a decade I will no longer have any M43 cameras or lenses. I think my time in the system has finally come to an (unplanned) end. 😞
    I'm feeling some kind of way about it right now, honestly. I still believe in the promise of M43, I just don't know that Panasonic will ever realize it or if the market will ever be there to make it viable. It's a damn shame, honestly. I'll be happy with my full frame cameras, and having three of the same bodies will make things a bit easier for me, but I still can't help but wish there was a professional level compact M43 camera that could fit my needs and fit in with my two S5 bodies. I just don't see it happening. 
    I had planned to always have at least one M43 camera in my kit. Eventually I was going to upgrade to the GH6 in a couple years, once they were even more affordable on the used market, but I couldn't pass on another S5 with kit lens for $750, so plans changed. It just didn't make sense to keep the GH5 and follow through with my original plans anymore, as these three S5 bodies will get me through until I can snag some S5 II bodies in a couple years when people upgrade to the latest camera.
    The GH5 was a total game changer for me and my work. I'm sad to see it go, because in many ways it did things that I never thought a camera would be able to do. It really cannot be overstated how much the IBIS changed things for people like me. I no longer had to set up a cumbersome shoulder rig, I could simply hold it and get steady shots even as I rushed around a wrestling ring and dodged people flying all over the place! Life goes on though, I guess.

    You should be able to use any camera that has a video out and a power in connection.  The front door camera that Casey Neistat used in his studio was just a GoPro that was powered via USB and connected to a TV.  
    Surely you'd have an old camera around that has these two connections?

    I remember doing this too.
    A robin nested outside my grandmother’s living room window back in the 80’s. I hooked up a VHS camcorder and we watched/recorded. 
    Cute!  
    Also discovered how mama birds make sure the nest doesn’t get covered in poop. 
    As for your modern birds, nowadays I think I’d use a ‘cheep’ nanny cam.
