Noile camere video 4K JVC
Firma JVC a anuntat 3 noi camere video care pot inregistra in format 4K. Supriza cea mare este modelul JVC GY-LS300CHE care va dispune de un senzor Full-Frame 35mm si va folosi lentile Micro Four Thirds. Din pacate pretul va fi pe masura perfomantelor, modelul de varf ajungand la 4450$.

Anuntul original (JVCpro.eu):
London, 12th November 2014 – JVC
Professional has today launched its new 4KCAM product line, comprising
three new handheld camcorders and a camera system. The GY-HM200E is a
versatile, full-featured 4K Ultra HD camcorder with HD streaming and the
compact GY-HM170E delivers 4K Ultra HD images in an economical,
palm-sized camera with professional features. The GY-LS300CHE handheld
4K camera and GW-SP100E camera system – previewed at the recent IBC2014
show – each offer 2K/4K recording; the GY-LS300CHE is a Super 35mm 2K/4K
camcorder that accepts a variety of interchangeable lenses, while the
GW-SP100E is a 2K/4K mini camera system featuring remote head and
recorder.
When JVC launched its ProHD product line, JVC made professional HD production affordable. The new 4KCAM product line follows that same tradition, with new cameras that make ultra-high definition 4K economical for cinematographers, webcasters and broadcasters, corporate and live event production teams and independent filmmakers.

GY-HM200E handheld streaming camcorder
The
versatile GY-HM200E offers an outstanding combination of professional
features and performance for any filming scenario. It delivers 4K Ultra
HD, 4:2:2 full HD (50Mbps) and SD images with a 1/2.3-inch BSI CMOS
chip. It also features a built-in 12x zoom lens with optical image
stabiliser and 24x dynamic zoom in HD mode. The GY-HM200E includes dual
XLR audio inputs that are mic/line switchable and feature built-in
phantom power, an integrated handle with hot shoe and dedicated
microphone mount, and SDI and HDMI video outputs.
The GY-HM200E is also JVC’s most affordable streaming camcorder and can stream instantly to Ustream or other destinations. A built-in HD streaming engine with Wi-Fi and 3G/4G connectivity allows live HD transmission directly from the GY-HM200E and GY-LS300CHE to hardware decoders, Ustream, Wowza Streaming Engine and Zixi servers. A variety of streaming protocols, including RTMP, allows content to be delivered directly to popular streaming web sites and content delivery networks. Zixi’s Advanced Streaming Technology (AST) provides content-aware error correction and bandwidth shaping, while the camcorder offers real-time feedback of signal and streaming status in the viewfinder.
GY-HM170E compact camcorder
The GY-HM200E is also JVC’s most affordable streaming camcorder and can stream instantly to Ustream or other destinations. A built-in HD streaming engine with Wi-Fi and 3G/4G connectivity allows live HD transmission directly from the GY-HM200E and GY-LS300CHE to hardware decoders, Ustream, Wowza Streaming Engine and Zixi servers.

Zixi’s Advanced Streaming Technology (AST) provides content-aware error correction and bandwidth shaping, while the camcorder offers real-time feedback of signal and streaming status in the viewfinder.
GY-HM170E compact camcorder
While
very compact, the economical GY-HM170E features a heavy duty body with
professional control layout and comprehensive video profile settings for
professional use. Keeping with JVC’s commitment to native file
workflows, the camera records 4K Ultra HD as H.264 files and can record
HD and SD footage in a variety of resolutions and frame rates. Other
features include an integrated 12x optical zoom lens with two ND
filters, built-in stereo microphone and 3.5mm audio input, and live 4K
UHD output through a built-in HDMI connector.
GY-LS300CHE Super 35mm camcorder
GY-LS300CHE Super 35mm camcorder
The
GY-LS300CHE records to non-proprietary SDHC and SDXC media cards in a
variety of image formats including 4K Ultra HD, full HD with 4:2:2
sampling, SD and web-friendly proxy formats. It features JVC's 4K Super
35mm CMOS sensor combined with industry standard Micro Four Thirds (MFT)
lens mount. JVC’s unique Variable Scan Mapping technology maintains the
native angle of view for a variety of lenses, including Super 35, MFT
and Super 16. As a result, lens options for the camera are almost
limitless.
“The combination of a Super 35 sensor and MFT mount is a brilliant solution to accommodate the largest variety of lenses and adapters without compromising image quality and lens characteristics,” said Gustav Emrich, European product manager. “It gives filmmakers the flexibility to use high-end cinema lenses or affordable glass to capture 4K/HD footage.”

GW-SP100E camera recording system
The
JVC GW-SP100E is a 4K/2K remote camera head and recording unit; the
system includes the camera head, a recording/playback device with
built-in monitor and a RCU controller. This tiny camera produces
beautiful 4K video, with 3840x2160 resolution, at up to 50/60p recorded
locally to SDXC UHS-I U3 memory cards. It has an interchangeable MFT
lens mount system, chosen due to its very shallow flange depth, which
offers the greatest flexibility to end users who have already invested
in lenses.
The GW-SP100E camera system features a video unit with a foldable and detachable 7-inch HD LCD monitor and includes a wired dedicated remote and camera control panel. Since the camera head is separate from the recorder, this opens up many dedicated applications for the system, including use for industrial or film applications, on special vessels/cranes/trucks, or as a high-resolution microscope camera and recording system. The mini 4K camera can also be attached to a gimbal option; this may be used with a helicopter system for aerial shooting, with anti-shaking and anti-blurring technology ideal when used with a handheld system. So, while the mini 4K camera produces images suitable for cinematic applications, the system also has applications for broadcast news and could open a whole new world for broadcasters.
In summary
The 4KCAM product line is an ideal complement to JVC’s successful ProHD product line. All the new cameras feature dual SDHC/SDXC card slots for dual, backup and continuous recording. The camcorders also include a 3.5-inch LCD display and 1.56 megapixel colour viewfinder, each with smart focus assist functions, and offer two-channel audio recording. An ideal complement to JVC’s successful ProHD product line, the new 4KCAM cameras will be available by Spring 2015, with European pricing still to be confirmed.

The next big thing in photography.... it's a Sony
10 motive pentru care un fotograf profesionist a schimbat aparatura foto de la Nikon la Sony.
M-a surprins sinceritatea lui Jason Lanier in videoclipul de mai jos. El a facut trecerea la aparatele foto Sony mirrorless fiind un fotograf consacrat pe aparatura Nikon.Motivele sunt destul de clare si sunt valabile inclusiv si pentru fotografii care folosesc aparatura Canon (inclusiv cel de fata):
- viewfinder electronic - tehnologia a avansat atat de mult incat este net superioara viewfinder-ului optic;
- confirmare instant in viewfinder a schimbarilor de expunere, white balance, etc.;
- compatibilitatea fisierelor intre aparate foto/video;
- sensibilitate ISO nativa foarte mare;
- custom focus limiter din corpul aparatului - exemplu situatie: fotografie motocross la baza unui deal... asteptam motociclistul iar totul se deruleaza intr-o fractiune de secunda;
- FPS ridicat, pentru unele aparate peste 10f./sec.;
- Focus peaking (semnalizarea pe ecran a zonei in focus) si Zebra (semnalizarea pe ecran a zonei supraexpuse) - inclusiv in viewfinder inainte de a face poza;
- ecran rabatabil;
- conexiune WiFi si GPS integrat;
- dimensiune mica.
De multe ori m-am simtit frustrat cand am vazut noile aparitii care sunt doar o mica imbunatatire a versiunilor mai vechi. Un exemplu foarte bun in acest caz pentru Canon este 60D si 6D.
Din pacate ca multi alti fotografi nu sunt pregatit sa fac trecerea catre o alta firma (sistem) deoarece investitiile facute in Canon sunt foarte mari (am cateva corpuri, lentile, blituri, declansatoare toate dedicate Canon). Probabil asta este si motivatia firmelor (Canon/Nikon) legata de marketing-ul actual.
Intrebare de final: fotograf mai lenes sau rezultate mai bune si mai rapide cu ajutorul tehnologiei?
Similar... va plac sistemele ABS, ESP, etc pe masini? ....stiu raspunsul :)
Si ca sa mai ingrosam randurile un alt fotograf, Viktor Elizarov specializat in fotografie de peisaj, a trecut la aparatele mirrorless Sony - http://www.phototraces.com/reviews/top-reason-why-i-switched-from-canon-to-sony/ . A facut aceasta trecere pentru multe inovatii incluse in aceste aparate.
Sa stiti ca istoria este repetitiva si cine nu o invata are de platit. Multa lume spunea acum cativa ani ca fotografia pe film va mai reprezenta un segment important si una dintre firmele care s-a inselat mizand pe acest lucru a fost Kodak.
Update 10 martie 2015:
Cu ocazia expozitiei WPPI 2015 (Wedding AND Portrait Photography Association) Jason a sustinut o noua prezentare pe aceasta tema in fata fotografilor profesionisti.
Update 30 martie 2015:
Samsung "forjeaza" puternic in sectorul mirrorless si de acum are rezultate spectaculoase cu Samsung NX1 - http://www.cnet.com/products/samsung-nx1/ "Mirrorless camera takes on mid-range DSLRs for action shooting and wins" CNET.COM.
Sa nu uitam ca firma Samsung are un potential urias (dispun de foarte multi bani care pot fi investiti in cercetare) chiar daca este relativ nou venit in domeniul foto pro.
Daca vreti sa porniti in fotografie, inclusiv ca profesionist, de acum trebuie sa luati serios in considerare sectorul mirrorless. Din pacate oferta Canon si Nikon pentru aceasta zona este limitata si sub asteptari fiind depasita cu brio de alti competitori.

Video realizat cu Sony A7s luminat doar de luna
Mai jos aveti un video realizat cu noul aparat foto Sony A7s in conditii de lumina foarte slaba. Lumina in videoclip este doar cea care provine de la luna. Au fost folosite lentilele Zeiss 55mm f/1.4 Otus si Zeiss 28mm f/2.
Realizator - Carbon Studios:
Realizator - Carbon Studios:
"Our goal was to set out and shoot a short film that was lit entirely by moonlight. We waited for the moon to become full and on the night of September 8th we set out to explore the coast in California and see what we could find.
When we arrived at our location, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect! It was around 12:30 AM and the moon was barely lighting the beautiful beach. The entire shoot took place between 12:30 AM- 2:00 AM.
For the first two scenes were shot at a different location a few days before the moon became full. The first scene was shot at 1/25th, f/1.4, 25,600 ISO,
The second scene was shot at 1/25th, f/1.4, 32,000 ISO
Our settings for the rest of the video were around 1/30th, f/1.4, ISO 12,800. To give you a perspective of how dark it was, there are a couple photos in the behind the scenes below.
We did not add any color grading, noise reduction, or sharpness.
All of the clips are straight out of the camera shot in the PP2 setting.
You will notice some purple fringing around the left side, The Metabones adapter that we rented had a light leak issue from what it looks like.
Sony has done an amazing job in creating this camera especially after seeing the quality that has come out of this camera."

Sigma Germania - un service de inalta calitate
Recent am avut o problema cu una dintre lentilele mele Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM.
Dupa 2 ani si jumatate de lucru contactul cu aparatul (Canon) s-a defectat la una dintre sedintele foto. Lentila a fost trimisa prin F64 la service-ul autorizat Sigma Germania si a revenit in conditie excelenta, ba chiar a fost si curatata exemplar - arata acum ca noua :)
Nu va ganditi ca acest lucru s-a intamplat pentru ca este Sigma.... recent am avut in service un aparat Canon 5d mkIII (probleme la joystick).
In anii de folosinta aceasta lentila s-a comportat exemplar.
Sunt posesorul a mai multor lentile Sigma si sunt mai mult decat multumit de aceasta alegere:

Review comparativ DXOMark - Sigma 50 f/1.4 Art si Zeiss 55 f/1.4 Otus
Dupa cum ne-am obisnuit firma Sigma ofera numai surprize placute cu noua gama de lentile.
DXOMark a realizat un review comparativ intre lentilele fixe (prime) Sigma 50 f/1.4 Art (949$) si Zeiss 55 f/1.4 Otus (3990$). Lentila Sigma a depasit competitorii (Canon, Nikon) si se apropie foarte mult de top in gama 50mm, fiind egala ca si calitate a imaginii cu Zeiss pana la o diafragma de F/2.
Concluzie review:
“As part of the company’s new Global Vision Sigma’s reimagining of their premium lenses is reaping dividends. The 50mm f1.4 DG HSM A is every bit as good as the earlier 35mm f1.4 model, in fact it’s slightly better in outright sharpness and uniformity. If there’s a downside it’s that lenses built with few compromises are generally large and heavy, but at least Sigma isn’t making you pay through your wallet. At $949, the new lens isn’t much more expensive than the firm’s high-speed 35mm, and is similarly competitive when compared to rival offerings from the big-brands.”

Nokia Lumia 1020 - review DxOMark
DxOMark a testat capacitatile foto pentru telefonul Nokia Lumia 1020.
Prin intermediul noului firmware telefonul poate realiza fotografii RAW (format DNG) la fel ca si fratele mai mare Nokia 1520.
Datorita senzorului mare imaginile in lumina buna sunt la o calitate inalta, apropiindu-se de aparatele foto compacte de top. Evident calcaiul lui Ahile ramane lumina slaba.
Mai multe detalii - http://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles/Nokia-Lumia-1020-sensor-review-Are-mobiles-comparable-to-compacts-and-DSLRs
Tinand cont de calitatea imaginilor si flexibilitate smartphone-urile nu pot inlocui momentan aparatele foto dedicate. O comparatie fair-play ar fi cu aparatele foto compactele din clasa de jos si medie.
Folosind tehnica actuala de constructie, calitatea imaginii este direct influentata de dimensiunea senzorului si a lentilei:

- majoritatea lentilelor (DSLR) de top au un filtru (aprox. diametru) de min. 70mm;
- cea mai buna sensibilitate ISO (lumina slaba) este obtinuta de catre aparatele foto DSLR full-frame.
