I totally agree. In your experience do you feel you can get a sharper image by down resing the video? I don't understand what's really going on but from another post on here it seems that starting with more and reducing it still gives a crisper more detailed image.

Fascinating. That video does seem to be very high detail. I guess there is something in starting with more pixels and compressing to the same destination resolution that shows more detail. I woukdnt have expected that. Either that or the camera manufacturers pay a bunch of money to do some...

So I'm just curious, how do you guys tell how good the 4k resolution is without a 4k monitor?

Yeah he did a great job explaining this in a way that's easy to visualize. There should be some good stuff out there on YT, it just takes some sorting through.

That really shouldn't be a surprise since everyone's estimate was around $2000. It sure does have a lot going for it. But it starts getting to the point cameras overlap each other in their features. I'm trying to be ride and not just gadget hungry.

Are you not able to see the video? I see it right in front of me now.

That X7 wont lift a large format camera? What are you lifting, an Alexa?

Beat me up all you want but lets face it, half of the people getting into photography,film, AP,AV buy their equipment based on trends. The 5d being the most common thing out there. I admit I learned a few things watching this and certainly don't claim to be a camera guru. But we should all...

I'm kinda bummed they capped the frame rate at 96. I was really hoping they could pull a 240 mode even in 720. Now I'll have to finance a miro to compliment our fs700. http://www.cinema5d.com/news/?p=23279...

Well no doubt you gave it a genuine shot. Hopefully the flying end of things continues to grow.

It's quite annoying because instead of giving us higher frame rates, better pixels, more DR, higher bit rates......they sell us on technology that is not needed. it's like computers. We have a super computer if you were to run the apps from a few years ago. but they utilize the new tech to...

Wow Bart, I never thought I'd hear you say that! ??

I say it's mostly marketing. I'd be happy if streaming 1080p was no longer an issue on any server. Even with my computer and fast internet things like YT and Vimeo are constantly bogged down. If you are doing things on the big screen I can understand. A 4k tv is ridiculous! I have a pioneer...

I suppose that's correct, good catch. It just happens to be that the cams with higher DR are usually ones that have a RAW option. but like you say, being able to manipulate the image that much more in post is nice. And a little more on the GH4 from BH

Here's some other thoughts on what is desirable for AP, IMO. The reason I think the Sony A7r didnt come up is because there arent a lot of lenses available for the ff. And if you are going with the A7 then you are probably better with the nex7 since it is cheaper and smaller. Here's what it...

I have a lot of canon glass which is the only reason I didnt buy the gh3. I love my shallow DOF. But if the Gh4 has a 240 fps mode there is zero question i will grab it. Dont really care for 4k other than a few projects where cropping to HD would be nice. The 5d has no business being flown...

thats funny, I could feel that question coming when I wrote it. I actually erased my definition as I felt I would get some heat for it but since you asked. Grass-roots, means build it all yourself, avoid RTF, learn all the ins/outs of flying and stop trying to do what people have been working...

Am I the only one finding this Colin topic is getting old quickly. Perhaps it's the fuel this fire needed. I always had a good solution for DJI but people didn't like it. If you don't like the product, don't buy it. You know you're buying something from a Chinese company. What did you...
