  1. Thanks
    Mako Sports reacted to helium in Introducing the EOSHD Tim Apple LUT for that washed out nationalist propaganda look   
    You might want to read "The Paranoid Style in American Politics", for a useful description of Trump's style of politics, and that of the Republican party.  Or for a more modern update, consider the views of two "fellows" of the American Enterprise Institute -- a right-wing think tank -- who explained what the Republicans were as of 2012:
    "The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition."
    But I know that's music to you!  Just the chattering of libtards, right?  What global warming?  It's cold outside!  And so what if the poorest and most backward areas of country -- the ones which receive far more Federal dollars than they put in, thanks to the much richer liberal states -- are the big Trump supporters?  That just proves they're virtuous!   
    Thing is, while we don't mind paying your bills (there's nothing wrong with "welfare"), it's galling to be told that we're the ones who love the nanny state, when it's the American south, Trump country, which is on the government tit.  Then again, if you believe Obama was born in Kenya and the famous server is in Ukraine, you may have difficulty distinguishing credits from debits.  Or maintaining any notion of "good government" or a decent civil society.  Ah, Jonesy....  This fantasy world of yours.  You might want to try Guatemala  or Nigeria, if you hate big government.  And take your camera!  They love log footage in hot libertarian paradises.

    I love the folks (who most likely don’t vote in the US) saying that Liberals are upset and triggered. But it’s you lot that scream and burn your sneakers on Twitter and shoot up houses of worship. Eh comrades?

    I’m loving the results of this lut. Gives me beautiful neutral skin tones and an ungraded log look. I think this is your best one yet. 
    Here is the ungraded image

    And here is with the LUT. Look at how beautiful the skin tone looks!  No more orange!

    I'll wait for Curtis Judd's review before getting too excited. 
    I just kinda realized that for the first time in like 10 years I'm not using any Rode mics. Kinda wild.

    "- Revolutionary acoustic design – delivers unmatched acoustic transparency and a natural, uncoloured sound similar to a broadcast shotgun mic."
    So why do they still sell their other NTG microphones? This is an exaggeration for sure.
    This is clearly competing against newer Deity and Azden on camera mics, do not see many of us sell our Sennheiser/Sanken/DPA/Shoeps microphones for this.
    I still believe the MKE440 is the best on camera solution, directional stereo is the best idea. I also expect my Sanken CS-M1 on the Cosi to be a lot better in every aspect (sound quality and characteristics and wind and handling protection) and that is really a boom-able solution.
    Certainly seems like  the best on camera mic Rode has to offer, but that doesn't mean their older designs were very good. In all my years in video productions and 20 years as a soundman, I only owned the micro and I recently bought the NT-SF1 from Rode.
    It is good that there are a lot more new audio products in the market, I just hope some young people will educate more themselves into sound production.

    I'm afraid the only one looking like an idiot is the person who claims to have opened a factory after he got a tour at a plant that has been running for years. 
    Couldn't invent it. Who needs comedians when we have trump?

    Wading into politics in this heavily polarized & heated environment is a good way to lose half of your readership.

    From John Gruber (Daring Fireball):
    “This is how Apple chose to unveil the packaging for the Mac Pro — in a poorly-shot overexposed propaganda video by the White House, scored with bombastic music that sounds like it came from an SNL parody of a Michael Bay film. Think about how it feels to work on that team at Apple.”
    “A low moment in Apple’s proud history, and a sadly iconic moment for Tim Cook. I hope avoiding those tariffs is worth it.”
    BEAUTIFULLY GRADED!
    Apple’s latest ad is a brave new direction for the Cupertino tech giant’s brand.
    To celebrate, I have created the EOSHD Tim Apple LUT.
    The favoured look of the US President is perfect for factory tour videos or nationalist propaganda.
    The LUT has a muted, washed, bleached contrast with no life and no joy in it. So if that’s what your scene demands, be sure to use the EOSHD Tim Apple LUT today.
    Download the Tim Apple LUT (.cube format, free of charge, but at cost to your soul, 100% tested with Final Cut Pro X, Premiere and Resolve)

    You're not going to gain any increases in quality. The only benefit would be to improve performance when editing prores vs h264 or similar.

    Well, looks like Canon is selling the eos rp for $999. Pretty good deal for full frame, and it shoots 24p now. Pair this with eoshd c-log and this seems like a nice combo if you don’t need 4K

    I guess I'm in the minority on the forum enjoying Apple. 
    When I have to take out my wallet, being on mac sucks, but it's worth it just to be able to use FCPX and avoid Premiere. Maybe one day I'll have the time to learn Resolve for anything besides color and consider Windows then... 
    Nahhh just kidding I'm a fanboy I'll never leave.
