Speaking of which, a feather in the cap for Telestream and Sony and some description as to the HDR/SDR production workflow -

My patience is even more fragile, hence not hanging around in this thread nearly as much as I once did.

As I said, life is fragile - https://www.beckchapels.com/obituary/trevor-fulks

Patience is a virtue which good teachers, key grips, et al. possess and develop for they inspire and motivate people with different backgrounds/skill sets/cognitive ability. LordoftheRings brings more to the table other than solely Chuck Norris references.

We enjoy the wet licks, but can we get a little more bark in the vocal with the mix?

Theme of the June issue of the SMPTE Motion Imaging Journal this month is, wait for it……

UHD
which not to be dismissive at all of the other fine papers, I’ll briefly mention that it contains an innovation by Klaus of Grass Valley - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...s#post14538566
i.e. realizing a 2/3” 9.5Mpixel CMOS imager with 3.6 Gpix/s enabling high frame-rate operation in native 4K UHD resolution and full HDR support.

Couple simple primers / HDR

• https://www.pocket-lint.com/tv/news/...nt-can-i-watch

* I love sports and wildlife documentaries.
Today we have drones equipped with 8K HDR cameras; make sports and wildlife that much better to watch on our HDR displays. Films by the master cinematographers are more exciting watching /// T E N Ǝ ꓕ anyone?

The whole "Tom Cruise riding a motorcycle without a helmet" thing in his movies is really starting to piss me off. Especially since his passenger doesn't have one either.

Peter, there’s real life –

Tom Cruise Cruises Down Doheny on Ducati Superbike - YouTube

and there’s movies. Personally, I’d be more concerned about violence in a whole host of movies and games which could potentially set a bad example for some impressionable naïve people to try to emulate.
