a number that LordoftheRings isn’t aware of - there was a total of 96 different camera technicians used throughout the course of the filming of Top Gun: Maverick

P.S.
And speaking of the respective Local, although not in HDR, this indie movie involves the Venice camera, a real-life female superhero and another superb DP and crew, good read - http://www.icgmagazine.com/web/the-real-life-superhero/

Robert, you going to CES this year? (not me)
Had you heard about this? - https://www.cordcuttersnews.com/lg-w...020-smart-tvs/

Yes, I know and forgive the bragging, but I have been the guiding force pushing LG to integrate ATSC 3.0 decoding into the 2020 premium TVs. LG owns Zenith and they are one of the major companies that developed and built the first ATSC 3.0 front end and decoders.

I'm also a speaker at CES's "The Road Ahead to 8K UHD". My co-presenter is the well respected Florian Friedrich from Germany.

[Robert Zohn]

We'll also see ATSC 3.0 set-top-boxes so 2019 and older TVs will have an upgrade path to ATSC 3.0 OTA and IP.

Impressive behind the scenes work.
