Specifically, who on the bottom right is 'Beyond Human Eyes' ?, or must I expand the added insert? Geoff, Steedeel (will miss you in the football thread), and others should know the answer to this.

I am thinking the video game ‘Detroit’ or good old Arnie in T2?

ok, give me a few minutes.

No way, it's fascinating.

It tickles me that 4,290 people have watched that SMPTE video, but only 26 people Liked it. I'm the 27th.

Only 1 person Disliked it. Not bad considering how dry the material is

Does he have his settings off? He purposely doing it?

Is he sponsored by Crampton and Moore and never says it up front breaking YouTube rules?
Nah, he likes HDR

He is pissing off a lot of people and needs to drop the acting

[tommyboy81]

mr. Sony 900E himself

Avengers Infinity War SDR Vs HDR| Ep.318 - YouTube

I know. I always kept seeing his name in Vincents videos because I guess the dude got pissed when Vince said 900E wasn't top model, it was middle, and he's had a thing against him since. He's very anti OLED. And of course against HDR. So I've gone to his page here and there to see what he talks about and really read the comment section. lol

[LordoftheRings]

He sounds like a professional video calibrator, a professional video scientist of the video science foundation in Hollywood. Is he?

Is he the same scientist who used to swear a lot? Did he tune down a little?
Is he the same guy who cannot accept different views from other's comments?

Should we trust him, ignore him or what? His opinion is his, and he's certainly entitled to it.
Does he come across sometimes as someone who is not solidly grounded and who's opinion is irreversible, infallible and not to be argued or discussed?

Is he the same guy who loves Sony LED TVs and has issues with LG OLED TVs?
Did I say if he was the same guy who used to swear a lot?

[LordoftheRings]

I think he would fit perfectly @ home in advertising and promoting over @ AVS.

You nailed the caption (Arnie).
As to the non-human looking on at the Sony presentation and since it’s the weekend (footy matches), I was thinking more of Kayla….



and eagle vision with their extra fovea as compared to humans.

Vincent keeps pissing people off, it's just a shame he speaks to a demographic due to a lot of bias of that demographic needing his services

27?
Heck, that’s more internet forum ‘thank you’s’ than I probably get in 6 months or a year. Scott will survive.

Anyway, as a bonus, after reading the citations I listed in that past post, I’d bet you also now know more about/and the significance of, the Barten model - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btyHximWiqU#t=32m27s
to Dolby Labs and PQ, and thus HDR home viewers, than the vast majority of HDR aficionados.

Personally, when a tie-in can be made to motion pictures or other concepts readers may be unaware of, I like to diversify the more ‘intellectual’ links with visceral links, for example -

I must live in a different world than a lot of you guys, for I have no idea who y’all are referring to. He sounds big on AV social media though.

On an imaging aside, some (esp. those longtime readers familiar with previous Lowry attempts at grain/noise reduction with its proprietary motion estimation imaging processing algorithms) might find it interesting that these investigators - http://www.etcentric.org/the-reel-th...-of-35mm-film/

found value in the Lowry Process in that for their content, it apparently increased the detail in the images rather than softening them.

"Black hole" humor Penton, you should know that by now. In true reality he sounds like he's from Mickey mouse Disney of most recent flicks. I hope he makes enough money with his YouTube videos so that he can purchase a ticket from Elon Musk for the next trip to Mars.

Happy Labour Day long weekend.
