It’s not just about features. Crisp reports that TV work “this past year has become really active. We finished the complete remastering of Seinfeld [as it transitions to Netflix from Hulu], but we also finished Party of Five and we are just now finishing Dawson’s Creek. These are all 4K and HDR, and these are things the broadcasters and streamers seem to be really interested in right now.”

Why? Well, for one thing, in terms of credible endorsement, he has had many Orthopedic Surgeons (who have injured their shoulders) from other medical centers and hospitals come in as his patients.

Bonus #2
In terms of older motion pictures, it’s good to hear that the 35th edition of of Il Cinema Ritrovato this coming July will take place in-person in the theatres and open-air venues of Bologna, Italy and that a selection of films will apparently be available through MYmovies for those who can’t make the trek there.

Anything is possible out of a major Hollywood studio, for example - http://cinemalowdown.com/2012/11/cin...exclusive.html
whereas such ^ misleading behavior wouldn’t stand from the professional imaging divisions - https://twitter.com/SonyProUSA
as the repercussions would be severe.

Been super busy watching the Tour de France as well as the Euro 2020 tournament, so a belated observance of National Camera Day, which was yesterday (https://nationaldaycalendar.com/june...tercrunch-day/ ).

So, here is range of camera tests performed earlier this year for GSCA Innovations (Technical) Committee -
