Personally I prefer the cinematography in 'Power of the Dog' for ... it's more natural, less CGI pre-fabricated, less manipulated and massaged, less lossless. That's my eyes and my school years in the art of filmmaking. But some scenes in "Dune' are top-notch visually.

We sure do. By the way, ICYMI, might I recommend a good spy thriller – Tehran:

Especially since I see that Season 2 of Tehran is set to premier to Apple TV+ in early May.

Believe me, immediately, the implications and modern-day consequences of your family relative’s recommendation were not lost on me . Problem is will that documentary ever be seen and undersood where it would do the most good.

Robert,

Jason hosted a recent discussion with Jeff Boccaccio on HDMI cables -

with some questions and practical points starting in at around -

Later, Murideo may post the recent webinar from Tuesday with Dave of Avical on the Business of Calibration which you might want to pass onto your calibrators as a courtesy.

You just hit the problem; it's not everywhere where it is permitted to be viewed, sadly.
It's the world we live in, here and everywhere. It's not the same world for everyone from the power of information.

My iPhone13 Pro Max suits me just fine .
Where’s Geoff, been busy stacking groceries again, or sampling the fruit on aisle whatever? and what the heck happened with Scottishguy?

Geoffrey, this one is more difficult, but you, of all people, should know the answer, if not, get on the bandwagon as Season 3 comes out this year - https://www.npr.org/2021/09/17/10374...:~:text=heaven

P.S. with a Friday Flashback tie-in

I admit I have a personal bias in hoping that Raya and the Last Dragon wins as I have a few friends who were involved in the development and other aspects of this production and graciously passed on cutting edge info to me as to its progress exemplified by previous exclusive insider tidbits posted here –

Didn’t Scottish get the ban? Might have been permanently. He was a hoot!

Holy grail! ...The best moviemaking/documentary cinema phone.
And, the most powerful phone processor chip (A15 Bionic) on the planet right now.
And, the most lasting time battery per charge, highly desirable attribute.
Video / ProRes, Cinematic mode, 10-bit HDR, Dolby Vision HDR (4K, 60fps).
Fantastic XDR OLED display, 120Hz, HDR10, Dolby Vision

Anyway it's the limo of all phones ... Apple best sin. You know how to shop properly.

* What are you missing? A periscope 100x ultra zoom.

In contradistinction to ^ , not to worry as Top Gun: Maverick won’t be too dark for any audiences –

Seems Top Gun: Maverick has a tendency to be mentioned retrospectively at least in passing, in many conversations, e.g. https://www.fdtimes.com/pdfs/free/11...50-Dec2021.pdf

Lol; no notch on top, super digital 100x zoom (optical telephoto/periscope 3x & 10x), custom screens (fun), DeX mode, multitasking, S-Pen, 1750 nits (peak), ~500 ppi density, HDR10+

▪︎https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php...idPhone2=11089

Overall the iPhone 13 Pro Max is the better camera phone, better movie/documentary cinema camera, and much more / • https://www.dxomark.com/smartphones/

• Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max: https://www.dxomark.com/smartphones/...one-13-Pro-Max

• Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra (Exynos): https://www.dxomark.com/smartphones/...Ultra-(Exynos)
