    Adam Kuźniar got a reaction from Andrew Reid in Creation of a chimaera   
    Your data is correct but your conclusions are wrong
     
    Yes, it has been proven that there's no credible evidence to support that the current strain of SARS-COV-2 is - https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/22221751.2020.1733440
     
    There were multiple labs all over the world studying and researching coronaviruses. They have been known for years. Sure, it's interesting that the outbreak happened in the same city but it's just that, interesting. No causation proven.
    It's just what a government like China does, nothing new, nothing extraordinary. 
     
    Uhh.. yeah, to study and research the virus? That's good.. right ? 
     
    There are multiple societal and economical reasons why nothing has been done at that time. You can pose the same question right now - why didn't EU/USA countries react sooner when first cases were known in China? Same reasons.
     
    You're clearly suggesting just that and once again, there's no proof that SARS-COV-2 has been engineered. 
     
     
    I'm not going to comment on the rest of your post since I don't have the time but maybe, just maybe we should talk about stuff we know, like I don't know, cameras; instead of stuff we have no idea and spewing mis-information. Your post is just adding to that pile.

    The covid-19 coming out of a lab due to a conspiracy is a fake news. Artificial virus exist and are created for research purposes but they have in their RNA codes a footprint easily recognizable as human by other scientists, since they have long chains in their RNA code originating from the human intervention. Virus deriving from natural mutations instead have small mutations spread out all over their RNA code. This is what said a prominent scientist in a tv show in Italy. This tv show is know for being a serious one.

    The whole 5 pages of this topic is why pre-production models and firmware makes zero sense to me. How am I supposed to get anything from these videos if everything they show is subject to change? How am I supposed to know if the jerky warpy IBIS is just pre-prod firmware or will be there in the camera I can ACTUALLY buy? How can I make a decision about the autofocus performance when everyone says "oh it's just pre-prod firmware it will be improved"? 
    All I can get from these videos is that the camera looks nice, but I could also take it from reading a spec sheet and looking at the images online. Everything else isn't representative of what I'll find in the store.
     
    I just want a GH5 with proper autofocus.

    Some time ago I looked at the skin tones from a range of demo videos from the camera manufacturers, including ARRI LF, Canon, etc and I found that the skin tones on those videos were almost always contained between the indicator line and the line of pure red.  Canon was the most red, and ARRI had a few tones slightly to the left of the indicator line, but it wasn't that far, and their tones were very yellow.
    The profile above is very interesting to me because I can see that:
    skin tones are pretty good it's compressed in the G/M axis both through saturation as well as by rotating the colours towards those hues, which is common amongst film emulations that try and put more things on the orange/teal dimension it's shifted warm, which you can see by comparing how saturated the red and yellow points are compared to the cyan and blue points are Fun stuff, and great result  
    I wonder if the client was happy with the results, I'd imagine so.

    This is such a grey topic. On one hand it is art, on the other art isn't a justification to being a bit of a prick and invading peoples privacy. I don't mind him doing this but I understand why Fujifilm pulled the ad back.

    I can see both sides of this argument, but personally I'd feel very uncomfortable doing this, and when I see anyone taking a photo in my general direction, I always turn my back to them.
    In public spaces, you don't 'own' your face in this regard, there's no legal reason for someone to ask your permission for a photo, and they don't owe you anything from the profits they may make from it. That doesn't mean it isn't rude. 
    I straight up disagree with your privacy statement Andrew, these days privacy is rare and if we don't hang onto every last shred of it, there won't be any left at all. 
    Paparazi sitting in a bush taking photos through someones windows could be their art, but I whole heartedly think that is very wrong. In the UK, that's legally fine, so long as the photographer is standing on public property. Morally it's disgusting.

    Gotta be controversial here and say some of the scenes don't blend very well. One looks like a million bucks big screen type of stuff, the other more of a small YouTube webseries video vibe. Though more than anything, I think post-production has made it stand out and make it still stick together. Fine grading. Let's not forget about sound design, that was bloody brilliant. Everyone can go out and get a GH5. It's those who master the things beyond the camera where the difference is really being made and where there's so much potential to still grow for me personally.

    To be honest with you I only use HLG because it's the highest DR profile besides V-Log which I don't have 😄 I think I'd use V-Log if I had it. HLG has some problems with a weird green cast that.. crap, now that I'm thinking about it I think I did have -1 on hue on that particular shoot because of that, but I went back to 0 because FilmConvert seems to correct it very well.
