I don't really shoot video so I can't comment on a plateau in video features, but as a stills photographer, I don't think anyone can argue that pure image quality for stills photography hit a hard plateau around 2017 with the D850, A7/A7RIII, X-T3. If I did a lot of video or serious sports and wildlife I would absolutely upgrade because the new stacked sensors, advanced AF etc are all very impressive. However, for a shooter like me, who exclusively shoots carefully composed stills... There is literally no benefit to buying a latest flagship body. I went from a Sony A7R III, to an A7R V... And swiftly back to an A7R III(A). I just didn't need the more advanced features and IQ (including DR) was identical... So I spent the money on modern glass, which is where your money will directly translate into big improvements in your IQ. Just lastly... I'm with Chris regarding Lumix M43, they need to focus on small bodies and relaunch the GX line. I had a Lumix GX1 back in 2011 and it was sensational. A cool looking tiny body (half the size of an X100VI) with 24MP, 'enthusiast' video features, interchangeable lenses or maybe a 28mm equivalent fixed lens would sell like hot cakes... And they can do it. For day trips, walking/climbing, street photography, parties, social events etc it would be perfect.

year 2024 just bought iphone 13

You’re amazing dude!

I miss Aarhus so much

those who don’t believe are from Crapdroid community… seriously, they are so jealous at the point they won’t believe a Fvcking PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER?

I brought this M3 after owning for 11 years a retina display late 2013 and I am feeling that I downgraded. You can't even connect 2 monitors.

That DR400 vs DR100 setting difference was shocking! That’s a really fascinating difference

ah yes, back again to watch a video about two cameras, both of which I will never be able to own. I still love it. what is wrong with me haha?

Didn’t know I needed this today. Turns out I did.

Om systems has more computational functions in their cameras than our phones, they deserve a lot more hype for that. Despite owning three full frame sony's, I still reach for my om-1 in certain situations.

Camera manufacture need to approach woman as nowadays, more and more woman enterpreneur is entering the market. They producing their own content and most of their content still comes from an iphone.. why not make professional camera that is "woman friendly".. just put additional trivial stuff like beautify even matter

Which national park is that in the US - stunning!

Anybody else notice a bit of stutter with the iPhone multicam?

Great information. I’m excited about all of this! Also, what brand tabletop mic stands are you using?

The other thing that would be nice is to have better wireless. Have you big camera upload to a cloud, or talk with your phone better and faster.

i actually think a huge fumble on the s9 is the cold shoe. street photographers often use flash. it also would have made it a more capable backup camera for professionals.

I'm not a huge fan of the Apple Vision Pro strapped to your face as a general workflow for creatives or even industry... but it definitely has a place. In terms of creating content for it, I could definitely see using some of the innovations James Cameron had used with Avatar II. Separate the sensor and lens mount from the main body of the camera, throw the camera body on a back-pack style strap system, and have the sensor(s) and lens(es) mounted to your head or torso in some way.... helmet cam maybe? That could make for some AMAZING POV perspective film making. And you could have the systems mounted in other ways too if it made sense for the story. But right away, that seems the most logical approach to me. Sort of what the Vision Pro TRIES to do but with extremely high fidelity.

Regarding the S9: I finally had a chance to handle one for a few minutes yesterday (June 24) and two negatives jumped out at me right away. One, the control dial feels like it came out of the dollar store parts bin. I’m sure it’s been tested for durability, but it doesn’t feel like it belongs on a $1500 camera. And two, the HDMI and USB-C ports are on the grip side of the camera! I don’t think I’ve heard anyone really talk about this, but if you do want to put the S9 on a little gimbal then start digging for some L adapters to reroute the cables, and if you want to connect this camera to any sort of monitor the cable is always in the way when adjusting settings. Now that’s a really weird design decision.

Camera makers should re-evaluate the 18% gray convention, and create alternate exposure strategies that you can set your camera to. An expose to the right exposure mode would be awesome. The shutter speed dial could be set up so that you set your camera to the minimum acceptable shutter speed, and the camera only deviates from the expose to the right strategy when it needs to do so to keep the minimum acceptable shutter speed.

Slow down a little, u guys are professionals , first timers trying to follow. Thanks.

What is the reason (besides pushing Final Cut for Ipad) that all of this could not work with a Macbook, Air, etc? and only in ipad pro?

The Plateau is also attributable to the widespread adoption of Sony Sensors among all manufactures ( Blackmagic, Panasonic, ZCAM, etc... ) Many of them are competing with exact same sensor, so the differentiation has to be made up in other areas ( Body style, User interface / User Experience, Codec, Lens mount, etc... ) Would be great to see more competition in the CMOS sensor space. Maybe even a resurgence or revival of some older CCD tech?

Thaïland Nice place to visite ❤ amezing ❤

A micro 4 third Sony RX will be pretty sweet too

By the end of the clip I looked for the skin tones and I was seeing them orange, but up till that point I just didn't care. I was listening to three guys talking about technical stuff. . . .

huh, this guy is a camera caster but hasnt used other editing devices to compare n contrast tools? i bet he uses jpgs and lets the raw files sit due to his inability to see the full rgb spectrum

Really nice to see you guys chat in a relaxed format with Tyler hosting. I drifted along with you. Before I knew it, I had watched the whole show. More please.

around 5:00 there are many freezes, are those hardware (phones) issues or software issues?

That's not cinematic, colors look like vomit

Heya! there were some dropped frames right around kzfaq.info/get/bejne/att5l86e38eZiqM.html -- any idea why this happened?

iPhone or android phone are ok but prices are too much way too much.

You should of talk about the license that a lot of photographers bought their software before subscriptions came out and they took that away and did,t even consider to give you the money back. I see no one talking about that. How can adobe sell that license that we bought and just go on your computer then you can’t use it anyone more. That was not legal!

We are no longer paying for image quality . We are now paying for convenience features. Cameras will only get easier to operate in the future, especially with the introduction of AI. Also it will much harder to screw up your image with cameras like the gh7 and the introduction of internal raw For 2200$ you can pretty much have every feature under the sun. Personally I’m excited. Cameras I wanted 3-4 years ago are now on sale. I can see companies just cramming features in their cheaper cameras.

14bit readout modes for video and 16bit for photo. That's the next small step for image quality. Might be another decade at the rate camera companies are going though.

You are concerned about having an echoey studio, and yet you use a marble freaking tabletop? A plain piece of plywood would be better!

top! thanks!

I just want my cat and the sunset in 4k

Beautiful comparison. Represent YYC!

Video camera are nowhere near plateau tbh. The real game is 8K at Pristine quality, with up to 120 frames, no compromises, log and raw at minimum 12 bit. That is where we should be. The A7S3 still beating cams coming out today tells me it was the 1080ti of that time and we just getting piece meal, and cripple hamm es. Now we gonna spend 2-3 years getting pushed 6K as the bees knees.

X100 VI.... include ND Filter 👍

The disparity in quality between iPhone ultrawide and the 1X lens is HUGE

Live Multicam is very, very cool! I can definitely tell this is iPhone footage but it’s not bad.

25:20 vs. 27:13 pretty much wrong! When you place a product (=12-18 BEFORE launch) you make out aTARGET group. THAT group has a budget. If you do not hit a specific price point a product DOES NOT SELL AT ALL! This is really serious. The price point ist the MOST relevant point - otherwise a product will not sell. And I do not mean x% less, I mean not at all! As a non sales pro you can see this on smartphone sales quite well. Samsung (at least in Europe) does this excellent. The drop down, ver controlled! the price of the last year high end slightly, so that they can sell the new, as well as the last one en mass, so that competition has no chance. YT Photographie is such a bubble. Tony is pretty much the only (en) Person who knows this industry.

Found it in Germany for 1650.- including the 85/1.8! The price of an iPhone pro max. For a family/travel/every day cam I think it’s perfect. I just want the best picture quality and carry it with me, don’t care about the rest and there are many other cams for those who need „more“

Couldn't help myself noticing the marble table when you mentioned the echo 😂

I think the focus on IQ is getting stale. Video quality and options, customisation, IBIS, readout speed are becoming more important. The ceiling in IQ is basically DR/ISO which hasn't really moved in like a decade.

Thanks for recording this video using your iPhones. It's convinced me to not sell my proper cameras just yet.

I disagree about camera “plateau”. Although it may be true that image sensors by themselves may have peaked (excluding faster readouts removing rolling shutter) - the autofocus upgrades means that 90 percent of photographers will get better stills and videos.

I think Chris and Jordan S9's review was their worst reviews ever, mostly complaining and reviewing for something S9 isn't. I blaimed Lumix for picking the wrong reviewers for the product.

What microphone would work best for asmr?
