    As for instance, have anyone noticed the work of this old good fellow here other than a few of us?

    Take a look on such well done BTS and tell me then that's nothing new to see there... ; ) LOL

    Here's another one:

     

    Great hard work there! Sounds B&W deserves much more talents to only make B&W films today. Good bet!

    I have been having a lot of fun lately with the Osmo pocket, I find it a truly creative and interesting camera that literally comes everywhere with me. It got me thinking about whether there is something similar with a great image and I started reading about the Osmo pro raw. Of course, it's much bigger than the pocket, but looks like it could be pretty sweet for that same level of fun and creativity.

    Has anyone used one?

    I agree. Looked to me a very interesting concept... Seems they've abandoned it. Have you used one?

    Not sure what specific post you're referring to, but most kit lenses are ~24-70, most secondary zooms are 70-200, and most systems have a 16-35 equivalent.  The numbers all look different between brands and mounts etc, but they mostly boil down to those ranges.

    I meant the aforementioned Sigma 18-35/1.8. And that link with the FF coverage for a part of its range. So, no idea if wide open too?

    Fair enough.

    Unfortunately, your budget isn't sized appropriately for the resolutions you're talking about.

    I think you have three paths forward:

    • Give up on the laptop and add a zero to your budget, making it $20000 instead of $2000, then go find where people are talking about things like multi-GPU-watercooling setups and where to put the server racks and how to run the cables to the control room
    • Do nothing and wait for Apple to release the 16" MBP with their new chipset in it (this could be a few years wait though and no guarantees about 8K)
    • Work with proxies

    Proxies are the free option, at least in dollar terms, and you probably don't need to spend any money to get decent enough performance.  I'd suggest rendering 1080p proxies in either Prores HQ or DNxHD HQ.  This format should be low enough resolution for a modest machine to work with acceptable performance, but high enough resolution and colour depth so that you can do almost all your editing and image processing on the proxy files, and they will be a decent enough approximation of how the footage looks.  Things like NR and texture effects would need to be adjusted while looking at the source footage directly, but apart from that you should be able to work with the Proxy files and then just swap to the source files and render the project in whatever resolution you want to deliver and master in.

    Yes, proxies are the best option. Output resolution isn't important. You can have whatever you want.

    That's a double challenge indeed : )

    Isn't that what they actually try?? ; )

    It's not true such attempt is totally useless at all.

    Without mention, cut is part of the process, post (part of this craft) is not only trying to correct with 10% warp stabilization.

    That said, imperfection is part of this art. There is a level of tolerance on both ways for sure. Other than that it's just people complaining on web ;- )

    Nothing wrong with that post work.

    No action cam will mimic that.

    There's also another one I find it rather interesting straight there:

    And still speaking of high rankings : D here's more valuable information on topic:

    With different results compared the 970 Evo Plus vs Rocket 4:

    Any thoughts from real (f)actual users? : )

    It seems the fastest option:
