My older brother is actually a professional (unlike me lol) and he was explaining to me how rain and fast snowfall just doesn't look right with a rolling shutter, I never even thought about this. There's all these weird little distortions/artifacts a rolling shutter causes but we had nothing else to compare it too so nobody talked about it. Global shutter is absolutely amazing, especially for sports
I can’t thank you guys enough! The podcast is shows much enthusiasm on your part. The chemistry between the three of you is informative and entertaining. I look forward to next week and every week after.
Guys, I can’t say enough about how great and how much I’m enjoying this series from you. Informative and so entertaining , where else can I laugh and laugh and learn. Appreciate all the hard work that goes into it. Props and congratulations!
Let's hope that high-end cameras getting global shutter will lead to the middle range cameras getting stacked sensors; especially a Sony APS-C one!!!!!!!
Chris, I have the same issue with most boots and especially ski/snowboard boots. I have flat wide feet that have been compared to a duck. The problem is the sideways pressure. You need a wide boot and even then what I did was wear thin socks and get s boot you can vary how tight you make the bindings in different areas. Then just tighten the top ones around your ankles and go progressively more loose towards the toes. It lets your feet move while still being tight above the ankles. Feels a bit weird but doesn't hurt so means you can actually enjoy your day. Hope that helps. PS I am a very novice boarder 😂
*****Jaron Schneider please for the love of God stop worrying about the length of the podcast! You say every week that its gone to long. I listen when I have ample time and pick back up where I left off. I have never seen any one complain about this style of podcast going to long. If you did 3 episodes a week sure. Everyone hear loves you guys we don't want it to end. Also Panasonic cameras are da bomb and under rated in the photo space. Thanks.
Maybe it’s not about the listener, maybe *they’ve* run out of time. I’m sure International Photography Megastars™ have pretty jam-packed diaries; Champagne doesn’t drink itself, you know.
One of my favorite series of videos was their photo travel challenges. Holland (Amsterdam?) and Taiwan were really important to me. I was a broke college student and it inspirers me to not just have gear but to go out and have photo vacations. I hope I can find a copy of those videos as I always watch them from time to time.
1:04:26 - you’re not alone, Chris. I put off downhill skiing for years and finally got talked into it by coworkers and I haven’t ever had that much pain short of twisted an ankle or breaking a bone. It felt like my leg and ankle were being twisted apart in different directions. I also have flat feet, but beats me if that’s related… I just know I feel you man.
The problem with putting in some Qualcomm SoC into a camera is they don’t have the data bandwidth required by a proper camera. The ASICs in cameras are like 80%+ just there to process data lightly, and move it around, really really fast. As far as I know there’s no real big part of a camera ASIC that does CPU type jobs, it’s all very specific to moving data around. The other thing is putting in a “real” CPU would be very power hungry for anything it works on, and would seem incredibly slow for all of us used to shooting on ASIC based cameras. Just think of the shutter delay on phones vs what we get on real cameras, it’s orders of magnitudes difference.
The three amigos! Great podcast. Very funny and informative. I liked the stories of how all three of you are rightly recognised and adored by your fans. Keep up the great work guys. PS: Being called insulting names by a Brit (Kai) if you are friends is a great compliment, 😀
I've started to wonder if the development of global shutter means that the stacked sensors will start migrating down the lineup. For example, there's been talk about the Canon R5 Mk. II having a stacked sensor and the R1 having a global shutter. Will we start to see cameras like the a7R series and others with stacked sensors?

For Chris's feet: I had the same issue with my baseball cleats, ice skates, and snowboard boots. It ended up being Plantar fasciitis (but only got irritated in those specific sports situations). I got heel cups that I put in that completely solved the issue.
Update, the guy arrested in Québec City was actually from Prince-Edward Island, his name is John Morris so he certainly spoke English! And you're right he is taking them to court!
I remember my old ccd camera didn't have a full global shutter. It still needed the second curtain to prevent white horizontal streaks from blown out highlights. For years I chose to wait for cmos to go global before upgrading to another cmos. Years went by and I saw black magic released a camera with global shutter, but I wanted a picture camera that also shot good video. So many things I wished for a decade ago still haven't come to fruition
Chris, did you visit the bootfitter after the latest time? They usually say to come back if it doesn't work until it is fine. Bootfitters also vary in quality but it sounds like you went to a proper Canadian bootfitter. And yeah a pediatrist could help too
You need to loosen the clips on the boots. I had this whole my life. Don't listen to people when they tell you the boots have to fasten to the limit, you're not racing. I finally found an instructor who told me learn to ski with your boots loose, that's how to master your technique. I've been enjoying skiing way more since then.
As far as Chris and his ski boots, it would be worth giving snowboarding a try, as an instructor who’s taught both for years the boots are definitely tend to be more comfortable for snowboarding, and if the same issues arises then it probably would be time to see a foot doctor.

The lack of good buffer on the A9iii is a bummer. If there's a 8GB memory that allows the A9iii to shoot like 1000 images in a 10sec burst, that would be sick.
Totally forgot OM System had the 8-25mm! Three lens mounts have ultra wide to normal zoom lenses now (M43, L-Mount, and E-mount)! I wish one would come out for RF, XF, and Z. My new favorite focal range especially when paired with a fast telephoto prime :)
Yes! A9-iii is the start of the Global Shutter sensors now. I remember watching videos for the first A9 that was released back in 2017 and was excited how awesome the camera is. A9-iii will sure impress as well and I have predicted that the next step for Mirrorless is a Global Shutter. Eve if we lose dynamic Range and Colors, as long as its not too much of a loss, its worth the tradeoff. It's so much better for handheld videos and using only the E-shutter for events. I know for sure its going to revolutionized Flash photography too so Im keeping my eyes on what type of Flash people are going to create images with. When the future A7V, A7RVI, A1-ii, FX3-ii and Fx6-ii all get the Global Shutter sensor, then we are in the next evolution of Mirrorless cameras. It's crazy how far camera technology have come compare to when Canon and Nikon were only dominating.
I have the exact same issue with skates and ski boots. Got so painful that I stopped skating with my kids. I played hockey and skied into my early 20's but in my 30's had to get orthotics for my wide flat feet.
enjoyable as always, please keep it up :) - thought on physical change question, what happened to the curved sensor? From a business perspective if you could get momentum on a sensor that doesn't work with any lens ever made except your own design that could be profitable and provide the advantage of having the exit pupil of the lens physically closer to a sensor (thinking of inverse square law) so it could be a win win...
What do you say about the base ISO of 250? I don't understand all the fuss from many RUclipsrs at all, because with the a9III you usually work with higher shutter speeds and therefore in higher ISO ranges anyway.
Sensor readout speed is the big problem for photographers. A7III - 1/16th, A7IV - 1/14th, A7RV - 1/9th. Only A1 and A9 series have 1/160th+. I would love the A7V to have a 1/500th readout. That would solve all issues with flicker, banding, flash sync. Or global shutter... whichever is cheaper.
The stories around security guards and photography reminded me of a vacation my family took to Washington DC about 15 years ago. I had a total of 4 encounters with DC police officers on that trip. Two of the encounters were super positive interactions where my family looked lost or unclear about how to get somewhere and DC police officers materialized out of nowhere and spontaneously gave us all kinds of helpful information and I thought "Wow, DC police are so friendly!" In the other two encounters, DC police officers PUT THEIR HANDS ON THEIR WEAPONS at some point during the interaction. In one, I was taking photographs around the base of the Washington Monument at about 11pm. If you're not familiar, there is a large ring of US flags encircling the base of the monument, maybe 50 yards or so from the structure, and I was inside that ring. A police officer approached and said, "No tripods inside the flags." So I started to take my tripod down and, purely out of curiosity about the reason for the rule, I said, "Why is that?" The officer placed her hand on the butt of her holstered pistol and shouted, "SIR, ARE YOU QUESTIONING MY AUTHORITY?" No, ma'am, just a curious amateur photographer who is taking his tripod down right now. (I'm still not sure of the reason for the rule. It's an area that can get very crowded during the day, so it might just be kind of a foot traffic control measure, although it was 11pm and completely deserted at that time, but a rule is a rule I guess. It is also an area where you can see the White House a few blocks away and I wondered if it had something to do with that.) Speaking of the White House, my final DC police encounter occurred when my family and I were walking on a foot path a short distance away from the South Lawn of the White House. I could see a large number of tourists taking this same path, so it seemed like an okay place to walk. Suddenly, a police office materialized from behind a tree and said, "Sir, you need to turn around right now; you cannot be in this area." I assume that there was probably something happening where someone important was about to be visible on the South Lawn or through a window on the South side of the building and they didn't want people to have a line of sight to that. Fine, but I wasn't sure how to get where I was going, so I stopped and looked around in mild confusion (also, one of my kids kept walking and I had to collar them and pull them back, so I was briefly distracted by that). The officer stepped forward and shouted "SIR I NEED YOU TO CLEAR THE AREA IMMEDIATELY!" I said, "Okay, which way should I go?" At this point, the office took another step closer, unsnapped a little strap on his holster, gripped his pistol, and shouted, "ARE YOU REFUSING TO COMPLY WITH MY INSTRUCTIONS, SIR?" And I said, "No, I'm very much trying to comply with your instructions, but I want to do it in a way that's not going to make you shoot me. Which way should I go?" Still with his hand on his pistol, he shouted "I DON'T CARE WHERE YOU GO AS LONG AS YOU CLEAR THE AREA!" So we just walked back the way we had come and added about 4 blocks to the walk back to our hotel. Before we encountered the police officer, I had been thinking, "Wow, we're really close to the White House here; I should take a photo." I'm glad I didn't have my camera ready, because I feel like this guy probably would have drawn down on me. Anyway, long story short, DC police, kind of a mixed bag.
Try boarding! As somone also with flat feet, ski boots are the worst. I still ski though because I am terrible at boarding. We need closer shots of the GUNPLA!
I have had a couple of interactions with the police here in Melbourne. If you see them coming and then approach them and ask them, 'How you going' and friendly, they are mostly just interested in what you are doing. Once, some cops approached and asked if we had seen a 'half-naked woman' running around the area.
Sony still haven't added animal eye AF in video for either the A1 or A7S III. That's a major fail for wildlife videographers. And why can't, or won't, Sony update the menus for some of their not-so-old cameras? Funny thing about SanDisc SSDs: I have one, and occasionally when I connect it to my laptop I get an error message. Something like "There's a problem with this drive. Scan it to fix it." Something like that. But it doesn't actually fail. I upload videos to it and DaVinci Resolve reads the files without a hitch. Thanks for the shout-out at 50:07! Much appreciated. You guys are a great listen. My own bold prediction: within two years, as global shutters become more mainstream, Sony will finally give up on CFE-A cards as they become the biggest bottleneck for fast burst rates.
I have a similar issue with my right foot, while hiking. The way the boots hold the ankle causes the ligaments across the bottom of my foot around my heal and up my calf get tight. Causing almost like a platerfacheitis issue in the middle of my ball of my foot. I haven’t found a solution. I just started significant stretching of all those areas to see if that helps. It’s realated to platerfacheitis so you might want to explore treatments to that as a help for your issue. Are you a back sleeper? It’s is very common for back sleepers to have this type of issue. But yes the pain gets so bad I’ll start tearing up by the time I get back to the car. Usually goes away within an hour or so after i put on different shoes. Hopefully this helps in someway and I’ve got hope that the stretching with help we in the long run. You should really give it a try, bet it’ll help you too.
28:00 Messed up they unlisted or deleted past DigitalRev episodes. Store based channels seem even more likely to eventually vanish compared to solo creator channels so props to archivers that have at least some of the content. 33:00 Very unlikely but I'm hoping global shutter sensors do quickly become much more prevalent through all camera price points (ILC and fixed lens). I'd take the expected hit in DR and noise for video benefits on compact lower cost cameras. If making those sensors can be as low cost as normal sensors it should allow for cameras to be less complex, thinner, and lower cost without the mechanical shutter. We've seen Nikon drop the mechanical shutter in high-end Z models but that's a special case where manufacturing cost and complexity probably are not a huge consideration given their MSRPs.
Because of the flash duration time, 1:1 flash works perfectly at a shutter speed of 1/500, and the spec table says that the light amount may not be accurate when using TTL flash at high speed shutters.
Jarren, Heavy Arms Custom is the best Gundam Jordan, I want a new version of that intro every episode! Chris, have you tried ski boots made of amethyst?
Oh snap Heavy Arms looks dope. Adding it to a list of builds I want to do along with Strike Freedom EX, Infinite Justice, and a few others from Seed and Witch from Mercury. -Jaron
The ground level reason CEWE seemed to suspend the photo, from my reading of their statement, was because the photographer didn’t (couldn’t, wouldn’t) provide the required documentation that they own the rights to the image. Sure, they mentioned the bit about lying at the beginning of their statement, but that seemed like clever PR. If the question of usage rights wasn’t an unanswered one then I’m not sure that said statement would have been made. Could be wrong though.
Just a comment on the 1/80.000 sec of the A9 III: the Fujifilm XT5 shutter speed is 1/180.000 sec and nobody on the internet mention that when they rave about the Sony shutter speed of the A9 III...strange...that is more than double the A9 III shutter speed...
I really can't see an issue with rolling shutter in the Nikon z9 all while photographing sports. I even tested it on a fan, the blades of the fan did not show any noticable destortion.
Additional answer for James: besides the B&W perf benefit, you also get the same benefit as with narrow band astro, use filters other than the IrRGB combo that you have in a color camera !
In gaming higher than needed framerates allow headroom for the scene complexity and processing that never sees the frame rate dip beneath acceptable levels. Perhaps the future high framerates might have more computational photography - per frame - and the high frame rate will allow that computational complexity to leverage the framerate bandwidth, and as you say - the full FPS is hardly necessary.
Monochrome camera question - Are files sizes smaller for given megapixels vs colour? I would assume so... but how much in JPG vs RAW ? K3 colour vs BW files sizes?
for Chris, I have worked for years in the running shoe industry and nearly every customer I have worked with was wearing shoes that are too small. you can often get away with it in regular shoes but in boots like for skiing and ice skating your feet will definitely hurt.
It's especially bad for winter sports because people want to wear thicker socks. And also having your feet compressed reduces blood flow so your toes get cold in the ice/snow.
The way to deal with security guards is to show them your pictures. The moment the slide projector comes out they run screaming. I swear it works every time.
Oh man, that is an intro, and you're right that I don't know who any of you are, so I'm just listening to some weirdos chatting about which lady they are from Drew Barrymore's Charlie's Angels movie. I forgot why I clicked on this video. Have a nice day.
Chris, I’ve got the same issue with skates and ski boots and sadly had to give up both. I’ve tried stretching the boots, insoles, specially made orthotics… nothing worked. If you figure out a solution, update us in a vlog lol
The Nikon D70/70s had a CCD sensor, not CMOS. At the time, CMOS sensors became desirable because of lower noise and wider dynamic range. Was the D70 also a global shutter camera?
Question: When with global shutter is combined with in-body stabilization, won't camera "shake" (under normal circumstances) be mostly eliminated? Can I sell my tripod?
Great Production. 3 Hybrid Camera Overheating Qs: 1) Why does it seem all the new hybrid cameras are designed to overheat for extended video? 2) Would adding a 1/4 inch in depth to provide space for heat dissipation hurt anyone? 3) Does implementing the "high heat" setting (i.e. Sony) cause harm to the camera long term? Thanks.
1.Camera brands choose priorities 2. Yes, people complain about LUMIX cameras being big, but they don't overheat they are general slightly larger 3. High heat settings are implemented because of the product design laws and the external temperatures of the chance of burns.
I guess when global shutters become less expensive or even not much more expensive than a non global shutter + a mechanical shutter then they will become standard
It's not even so much about the price, but about image quality tradeoffs. Unless someone magically removes those tradeoffs, I don't see global sensors becoming mainstream (again), because for most people the drawbacks will outweigh the benefits. Global sensors are nice, but they have a somewhat niche application.
I was taking photos at a fair where lots and lots of people were snapping photos with their iPhones. Generic stuff like the Ferris Wheel, some games, not focusing on people. I was pushing my infant daughter in a stroller at the same time, she was the focal point in all the shots. Stroller with sleeping baby in front of Ferris Wheel. Stroller with sleeping daughter in front of giant frog stuffie. Stroller with sleeping daughter and a hand holding deep fried bacon on a stick. Fair stuff. Two officers approached me and asked what I was taking photos of. I explained that this was pretty much for my daughter’s album (pointing at sleeping baby in stroller). One officer responded, “How do we know you’re not a pervert taking pictures of kids?” I showed the guys my photos, called over my wife, and left… wondering “Am I a pervert?” Needless to say, never went back to that fair. The deep fried bacon was pretty good, though.
32:47 et al... I'm a lot less expectant of a widespread-global-shutter future since I read that Nov. 13 article on the Amateur Photographer (UK) website -- written by a computer science professor and with electrical schematics! -- that explains some of the limitations inherent in the principle on which a global shutter works. Specifically, a global shutter *unavoidably* costs some dynamic range and rules out a dual-gain sensor... and for me personally, those two things are more valuable than the ability to shoot flash at 1/80,000. So, I predict that the global shutter will remain limited to specialized high-speed-centric cameras, UNLESS the industry manages to convince photographers at large that it's something everyone absolutely needs and should be willing to pay extra for... kind of the way they did so successfully with "full frame"... PS -- 35:21 Whoa, there, Jordan, does a global shutter really read out all the pixels "instantly"? Or does it just read them out *simultaneously*, followed by an indeterminate delay required to pull the simultaneously captured data out of the storage diodes? It makes a difference!
Hey Chris, I would definitely recommend checking out a physical therapist for the foot pain while skiing especially if you've found that inserts/insoles did absolutely nothing to help you out.
Such a bummer@@niccollsvideo . Boots are a pain in the ass, I hope you find the boots that work for you. You might try heat molding the shells of that boot. I own two pairs of those hawks and have done it for both.
@@lewcehjitl3282 haha you're so funny with quippy lines about Nikon. The Z8 and Z9 shoot around 30 fps plus and I agree with the OG commenter, as a hobbyist even 15 fps is too much sometimes. I shoot weddings as a hobby and even with 1 fps I ended up with 3k images. The A9 has a place and the Global Shutter tech is amazing, not so much the frame rate but being able to shoot silently and without distortion.
Why does Jherand use a downward camera shot like the camera is attached to his secondary boom microphone…seems weird to have Chris and Jordan have straight on camera shots camera and his camera focused from an angle that places emphasis on his hair LOL ijs LOL
Epdate. The ministry of justice of Quebec has cancelled the fine given to the Prince Eduard Island photographer recognizing his right take photography on the street of Quebec City. So you are all welcome to visit us an photograph our landmark like the Chateau Frontenac!
Guys, my friends and I find the PetaPixel box in the middle of the screen to be distracting (and unnecessary!). Can you make it smaller or maybe make it go away? PS: Jordan's pouty-cup is hilarious!
I would never mix the two up. They are so different after all. He simply asked about how far I’d been east. I did mention my Pearson trip but I’ve never had the opportunity to land in an airport within Quebec.
Great talk. Here are some things I however found a bit wrong :) : 44:20 Uhm, the M3 chip from Apple is something different, as its CPU is a standard ARM CPU with some other chips combined in a "system-on-a-chip". Anyone can create their own one and let them build by many companies. Apple is not unique in this thing. 1:18:00 Same thing here: Camera processors usually also use ARM processors built into a system-of-a-chip. They don't create complete own CPUs, just system-on-a-chips, that contain standard ARM CPUs. Also the flash sync is misunderstood. Any crap flash should be able to be used at 1/80000. Because they all have light a looooot longer than 1/80000, all the camera need to do is make the picutre somewhere between that time, that is super easy. This is not HSS sync which is very time critical and can cause banding etc. if not implemented correctly by the flash. Physically it is a completely different way to use flash :) Sony usually doesn't limit things for the sake of it, there are reasons. As for why Alpha 1 and Alpha 9 III can't go full fps with 3rd party is because the E-mount specs back then were not written to let aperture blades close and open fast enough reliably at that speed. They only implemented that later, thats why even older Sony lenses need firmware updates to support 30fps or 120fps, and some even don't support it at all. Sony usually limits things in software because of physics, other than other camera manufacturers ;)...

Chris, I have the same issue with most boots and especially ski/snowboard boots. I have flat wide feet that have been compared to a duck. The problem is the sideways pressure. You need a wide boot and even then what I did was wear thin socks and get s boot you can vary how tight you make the bindings in different areas. Then just tighten the top ones around your ankles and go progressively more loose towards the toes. It lets your feet move while still being tight above the ankles. Feels a bit weird but doesn't hurt so means you can actually enjoy your day. Hope that helps. PS I am a very novice boarder 😂

They say the tools does not matter when it comes to creativity, I say new tools open new creativity. The new tech from Sony is a game changer

Having seen Chris’ choice in footwear on some videos, just hot glue a set of Olukai to some skis and he’ll be set.
Having an image buffer is important to me for super slow motion capture of short-lived events
thanks for posting. Your intro video must be among the best in RUclips. Your content is ok too. :)

Awesome announcement from Sony! And breathing comp is a major one given their new G masters to add to the A1 and A7s3. I hope they continue the trend.
Thanks for the tech detail on how the crypto for the CAI works. Unfortunately there is a huge learning curve before one can grasp the conversation but it is a very important one nonetheless.
@Chris I hope you get advice that works. I'm surprised it only affects you when you skate or skii.

Snowboarding boots are much more comfortable than ski boots. + Theyre a good bit cheaper. Go boarding!

Totally forgot OM System had the 8-25mm! Three lens mounts have ultra wide to normal zoom lenses now (M43, L-Mount, and E-mount)! I wish one would come out for RF, XF, and Z. My new favorite focal range especially when paired with a fast telephoto prime :)
There's also the excellent 10-25 f1.7 for MFT
Yes! A9-iii is the start of the Global Shutter sensors now. I remember watching videos for the first A9 that was released back in 2017 and was excited how awesome the camera is. A9-iii will sure impress as well and I have predicted that the next step for Mirrorless is a Global Shutter. Eve if we lose dynamic Range and Colors, as long as its not too much of a loss, its worth the tradeoff. It's so much better for handheld videos and using only the E-shutter for events. I know for sure its going to revolutionized Flash photography too so Im keeping my eyes on what type of Flash people are going to create images with. When the future A7V, A7RVI, A1-ii, FX3-ii and Fx6-ii all get the Global Shutter sensor, then we are in the next evolution of Mirrorless cameras. It's crazy how far camera technology have come compare to when Canon and Nikon were only dominating.
I have the exact same issue with skates and ski boots. Got so painful that I stopped skating with my kids. I played hockey and skied into my early 20's but in my 30's had to get orthotics for my wide flat feet.
Can we get an article or a special video solely about photographing gunpla?
enjoyable as always, please keep it up :) - thought on physical change question, what happened to the curved sensor? From a business perspective if you could get momentum on a sensor that doesn't work with any lens ever made except your own design that could be profitable and provide the advantage of having the exit pupil of the lens physically closer to a sensor (thinking of inverse square law) so it could be a win win...
What do you say about the base ISO of 250? I don't understand all the fuss from many RUclipsrs at all, because with the a9III you usually work with higher shutter speeds and therefore in higher ISO ranges anyway.
Chris go to Ski West! They can help with shaping boots. Also you gotta warm them up before you ski in them.
James! You can adapt almost any ZWO or QHY camera to any lens out there my guy.
Will a copper wired flash work better for high speed sync?
Sensor readout speed is the big problem for photographers. A7III - 1/16th, A7IV - 1/14th, A7RV - 1/9th. Only A1 and A9 series have 1/160th+. I would love the A7V to have a 1/500th readout. That would solve all issues with flicker, banding, flash sync. Or global shutter... whichever is cheaper.
The stories around security guards and photography reminded me of a vacation my family took to Washington DC about 15 years ago. I had a total of 4 encounters with DC police officers on that trip. Two of the encounters were super positive interactions where my family looked lost or unclear about how to get somewhere and DC police officers materialized out of nowhere and spontaneously gave us all kinds of helpful information and I thought "Wow, DC police are so friendly!" In the other two encounters, DC police officers PUT THEIR HANDS ON THEIR WEAPONS at some point during the interaction. In one, I was taking photographs around the base of the Washington Monument at about 11pm. If you're not familiar, there is a large ring of US flags encircling the base of the monument, maybe 50 yards or so from the structure, and I was inside that ring. A police officer approached and said, "No tripods inside the flags." So I started to take my tripod down and, purely out of curiosity about the reason for the rule, I said, "Why is that?" The officer placed her hand on the butt of her holstered pistol and shouted, "SIR, ARE YOU QUESTIONING MY AUTHORITY?" No, ma'am, just a curious amateur photographer who is taking his tripod down right now. (I'm still not sure of the reason for the rule. It's an area that can get very crowded during the day, so it might just be kind of a foot traffic control measure, although it was 11pm and completely deserted at that time, but a rule is a rule I guess. It is also an area where you can see the White House a few blocks away and I wondered if it had something to do with that.) Speaking of the White House, my final DC police encounter occurred when my family and I were walking on a foot path a short distance away from the South Lawn of the White House. I could see a large number of tourists taking this same path, so it seemed like an okay place to walk. Suddenly, a police office materialized from behind a tree and said, "Sir, you need to turn around right now; you cannot be in this area." I assume that there was probably something happening where someone important was about to be visible on the South Lawn or through a window on the South side of the building and they didn't want people to have a line of sight to that. Fine, but I wasn't sure how to get where I was going, so I stopped and looked around in mild confusion (also, one of my kids kept walking and I had to collar them and pull them back, so I was briefly distracted by that). The officer stepped forward and shouted "SIR I NEED YOU TO CLEAR THE AREA IMMEDIATELY!" I said, "Okay, which way should I go?" At this point, the office took another step closer, unsnapped a little strap on his holster, gripped his pistol, and shouted, "ARE YOU REFUSING TO COMPLY WITH MY INSTRUCTIONS, SIR?" And I said, "No, I'm very much trying to comply with your instructions, but I want to do it in a way that's not going to make you shoot me. Which way should I go?" Still with his hand on his pistol, he shouted "I DON'T CARE WHERE YOU GO AS LONG AS YOU CLEAR THE AREA!" So we just walked back the way we had come and added about 4 blocks to the walk back to our hotel. Before we encountered the police officer, I had been thinking, "Wow, we're really close to the White House here; I should take a photo." I'm glad I didn't have my camera ready, because I feel like this guy probably would have drawn down on me. Anyway, long story short, DC police, kind of a mixed bag.
Try boarding! As somone also with flat feet, ski boots are the worst. I still ski though because I am terrible at boarding.
We need closer shots of the GUNPLA!
Alright I'll bring them close to the camera next week. I have two done, working on a third... -Jaron
I have had a couple of interactions with the police here in Melbourne. If you see them coming and then approach them and ask them, 'How you going' and friendly, they are mostly just interested in what you are doing. Once, some cops approached and asked if we had seen a 'half-naked woman' running around the area.
I’d just be happy with a stacked 24mp sensor in a sub 2K body
Sony still haven't added animal eye AF in video for either the A1 or A7S III. That's a major fail for wildlife videographers. And why can't, or won't, Sony update the menus for some of their not-so-old cameras?
Funny thing about SanDisc SSDs: I have one, and occasionally when I connect it to my laptop I get an error message. Something like "There's a problem with this drive. Scan it to fix it." Something like that. But it doesn't actually fail. I upload videos to it and DaVinci Resolve reads the files without a hitch.
Thanks for the shout-out at 50:07! Much appreciated. You guys are a great listen.
My own bold prediction: within two years, as global shutters become more mainstream, Sony will finally give up on CFE-A cards as they become the biggest bottleneck for fast burst rates.
I have a similar issue with my right foot, while hiking. The way the boots hold the ankle causes the ligaments across the bottom of my foot around my heal and up my calf get tight. Causing almost like a platerfacheitis issue in the middle of my ball of my foot. I haven’t found a solution. I just started significant stretching of all those areas to see if that helps. It’s realated to platerfacheitis so you might want to explore treatments to that as a help for your issue. Are you a back sleeper? It’s is very common for back sleepers to have this type of issue. But yes the pain gets so bad I’ll start tearing up by the time I get back to the car. Usually goes away within an hour or so after i put on different shoes. Hopefully this helps in someway and I’ve got hope that the stretching with help we in the long run. You should really give it a try, bet it’ll help you too.
What about animal eye autofocus in video in the firmware?
28:00 Messed up they unlisted or deleted past DigitalRev episodes. Store based channels seem even more likely to eventually vanish compared to solo creator channels so props to archivers that have at least some of the content.
33:00 Very unlikely but I'm hoping global shutter sensors do quickly become much more prevalent through all camera price points (ILC and fixed lens). I'd take the expected hit in DR and noise for video benefits on compact lower cost cameras. If making those sensors can be as low cost as normal sensors it should allow for cameras to be less complex, thinner, and lower cost without the mechanical shutter. We've seen Nikon drop the mechanical shutter in high-end Z models but that's a special case where manufacturing cost and complexity probably are not a huge consideration given their MSRPs.
Because of the flash duration time, 1:1 flash works perfectly at a shutter speed of 1/500, and the spec table says that the light amount may not be accurate when using TTL flash at high speed shutters.
Jarren, Heavy Arms Custom is the best Gundam
Jordan, I want a new version of that intro every episode!
Chris, have you tried ski boots made of amethyst?
Oh snap Heavy Arms looks dope. Adding it to a list of builds I want to do along with Strike Freedom EX, Infinite Justice, and a few others from Seed and Witch from Mercury. -Jaron
I just wish I was a super talented teenager ready to save the world in my giant Mecha. A teenager with good arches especially!
The ground level reason CEWE seemed to suspend the photo, from my reading of their statement, was because the photographer didn’t (couldn’t, wouldn’t) provide the required documentation that they own the rights to the image. Sure, they mentioned the bit about lying at the beginning of their statement, but that seemed like clever PR. If the question of usage rights wasn’t an unanswered one then I’m not sure that said statement would have been made. Could be wrong though.
Just a comment on the 1/80.000 sec of the A9 III: the Fujifilm XT5 shutter speed is 1/180.000 sec and nobody on the internet mention that when they rave about the Sony shutter speed of the A9 III...strange...that is more than double the A9 III shutter speed...
55:34
K2 Recon, Chris.
I really can't see an issue with rolling shutter in the Nikon z9 all while photographing sports. I even tested it on a fan, the blades of the fan did not show any noticable destortion.
Additional answer for James: besides the B&W perf benefit, you also get the same benefit as with narrow band astro, use filters other than the IrRGB combo that you have in a color camera !
In gaming higher than needed framerates allow headroom for the scene complexity and processing that never sees the frame rate dip beneath acceptable levels. Perhaps the future high framerates might have more computational photography - per frame - and the high frame rate will allow that computational complexity to leverage the framerate bandwidth, and as you say - the full FPS is hardly necessary.
Is it possible to have 2-layer transistor along with global shutter?🤔
QQQ: Can the processing power on modern mobile devices handle the outputs from a global shutter?
Monochrome camera question - Are files sizes smaller for given megapixels vs colour? I would assume so... but how much in JPG vs RAW ? K3 colour vs BW files sizes?
There always seems to be some kind of hate in regard to the Global Shutter... i don't understand it.
Fun fact about Quebec, it’s actually the only jurisdiction in North America where street photography is illegal
for Chris, I have worked for years in the running shoe industry and nearly every customer I have worked with was wearing shoes that are too small. you can often get away with it in regular shoes but in boots like for skiing and ice skating your feet will definitely hurt.
It's especially bad for winter sports because people want to wear thicker socks. And also having your feet compressed reduces blood flow so your toes get cold in the ice/snow.
Fully agree. Anyone who's tied their running shoes too tight knows the feeling, like permanent cramps in your foot arch.
The way to deal with security guards is to show them your pictures. The moment the slide projector comes out they run screaming. I swear it works every time.
Oh man, that is an intro, and you're right that I don't know who any of you are, so I'm just listening to some weirdos chatting about which lady they are from Drew Barrymore's Charlie's Angels movie.
I forgot why I clicked on this video. Have a nice day.
Chris, I’ve got the same issue with skates and ski boots and sadly had to give up both. I’ve tried stretching the boots, insoles, specially made orthotics… nothing worked. If you figure out a solution, update us in a vlog lol
As with most new technologies, it will trickle down.
The Nikon D70/70s had a CCD sensor, not CMOS. At the time, CMOS sensors became desirable because of lower noise and wider dynamic range.
Was the D70 also a global shutter camera?
Question: When with global shutter is combined with in-body stabilization, won't camera "shake" (under normal circumstances) be mostly eliminated? Can I sell my tripod?
19:43 That "you can't film here... you can film here!" quote is great. That would be awesome if it were the norm.
Great Production. 3 Hybrid Camera Overheating Qs: 1) Why does it seem all the new hybrid cameras are designed to overheat for extended video? 2) Would adding a 1/4 inch in depth to provide space for heat dissipation hurt anyone? 3) Does implementing the "high heat" setting (i.e. Sony) cause harm to the camera long term? Thanks.
1.Camera brands choose priorities 2. Yes, people complain about LUMIX cameras being big, but they don't overheat they are general slightly larger 3. High heat settings are implemented because of the product design laws and the external temperatures of the chance of burns.
"Solder me" sounds like Sodomy, both would be a good metal band names
sounds like Chris' feet doesn't like compression. Maybe try wearing a size and a half bigger size for skiing and skating.
Solder and Gomora Great band name ? Love the podcast guys.
The link for recommendations of hard drives is missing
I’m just here for Solder Me
the guy arrested should fight in court for his right to stand in a public place for as long as he desires
I guess when global shutters become less expensive or even not much more expensive than a non global shutter + a mechanical shutter then they will become standard
It's not even so much about the price, but about image quality tradeoffs. Unless someone magically removes those tradeoffs, I don't see global sensors becoming mainstream (again), because for most people the drawbacks will outweigh the benefits. Global sensors are nice, but they have a somewhat niche application.
I was taking photos at a fair where lots and lots of people were snapping photos with their iPhones. Generic stuff like the Ferris Wheel, some games, not focusing on people. I was pushing my infant daughter in a stroller at the same time, she was the focal point in all the shots. Stroller with sleeping baby in front of Ferris Wheel. Stroller with sleeping daughter in front of giant frog stuffie. Stroller with sleeping daughter and a hand holding deep fried bacon on a stick. Fair stuff.
Two officers approached me and asked what I was taking photos of. I explained that this was pretty much for my daughter’s album (pointing at sleeping baby in stroller). One officer responded, “How do we know you’re not a pervert taking pictures of kids?”
I showed the guys my photos, called over my wife, and left… wondering “Am I a pervert?”
Needless to say, never went back to that fair. The deep fried bacon was pretty good, though.
Yes they said it will sync flash with ANY flash at 80,000
Oh lord. Angels was 23 years ago. 🦳
39:40 I have a mirrorless CCD camera, it's called Leica M9☺ The battery life isn't THAT bad!
32:47 et al... I'm a lot less expectant of a widespread-global-shutter future since I read that Nov. 13 article on the Amateur Photographer (UK) website -- written by a computer science professor and with electrical schematics! -- that explains some of the limitations inherent in the principle on which a global shutter works. Specifically, a global shutter *unavoidably* costs some dynamic range and rules out a dual-gain sensor... and for me personally, those two things are more valuable than the ability to shoot flash at 1/80,000.
So, I predict that the global shutter will remain limited to specialized high-speed-centric cameras, UNLESS the industry manages to convince photographers at large that it's something everyone absolutely needs and should be willing to pay extra for... kind of the way they did so successfully with "full frame"...
PS -- 35:21 Whoa, there, Jordan, does a global shutter really read out all the pixels "instantly"? Or does it just read them out *simultaneously*, followed by an indeterminate delay required to pull the simultaneously captured data out of the storage diodes? It makes a difference!
Hey Chris, I would definitely recommend checking out a physical therapist for the foot pain while skiing especially if you've found that inserts/insoles did absolutely nothing to help you out.
I still remember Chris' bulbous zucchini
"Toronto", pronounced almost exactly as it's spelled - "Churanna".
Life is too short to listen to three buddies entertain each other while metering out a limited amount of useful information.
A9III stuff is great and all, but damnit Chris, go see a GOOD boot fitter.
I did! It doesn’t help. My feet are too flat and the pain in my arch is almost instantaneous, and excruciating
Such a bummer@@niccollsvideo . Boots are a pain in the ass, I hope you find the boots that work for you. You might try heat molding the shells of that boot. I own two pairs of those hawks and have done it for both.
Man, I just don't need 120fps, or 60 or even 30. I feel like after 10fps you are just getting extra junk to delete later.
Let me guess, Nikon shooter?😂.
@@lewcehjitl3282 haha you're so funny with quippy lines about Nikon. The Z8 and Z9 shoot around 30 fps plus and I agree with the OG commenter, as a hobbyist even 15 fps is too much sometimes. I shoot weddings as a hobby and even with 1 fps I ended up with 3k images.
The A9 has a place and the Global Shutter tech is amazing, not so much the frame rate but being able to shoot silently and without distortion.
@@lewcehjitl3282 I think Nikon is the only brand I have never owned.
Listening to North Americans pronounce “solder” never gets boring. I’m looking forward to the issue with “Nykon Zee Eff soddering”. 😊
and then Chris saying how about "Solder me" as a band name? Priceless 😁
Why does Jherand use a downward camera shot like the camera is attached to his secondary boom microphone…seems weird to have Chris and Jordan have straight on camera shots camera and his camera focused from an angle that places emphasis on his hair LOL ijs LOL
Jaron has great hair. It must be emphasized!
- Jordan
Epdate. The ministry of justice of Quebec has cancelled the fine given to the Prince Eduard Island photographer recognizing his right take photography on the street of Quebec City. So you are all welcome to visit us an photograph our landmark like the Chateau Frontenac!
Sounds like cold is the issue with your feet, Chris. Have your tried heated socks?
Guys, my friends and I find the PetaPixel box in the middle of the screen to be distracting (and unnecessary!).
Can you make it smaller or maybe make it go away?
PS: Jordan's pouty-cup is hilarious!
for shame Chris he was asking about Quebec how can you mix it up with Ontario / Torono
I would never mix the two up. They are so different after all. He simply asked about how far I’d been east. I did mention my Pearson trip but I’ve never had the opportunity to land in an airport within Quebec.
fair enough. just in case it was not obvious i was just kidding in my reaction :) @@niccollsvideo
Run some screws through your summer shows to your skies. DIY
Soldermize.
Great talk. Here are some things I however found a bit wrong :) :
44:20 Uhm, the M3 chip from Apple is something different, as its CPU is a standard ARM CPU with some other chips combined in a "system-on-a-chip". Anyone can create their own one and let them build by many companies. Apple is not unique in this thing.
1:18:00 Same thing here: Camera processors usually also use ARM processors built into a system-of-a-chip. They don't create complete own CPUs, just system-on-a-chips, that contain standard ARM CPUs.
Also the flash sync is misunderstood. Any crap flash should be able to be used at 1/80000. Because they all have light a looooot longer than 1/80000, all the camera need to do is make the picutre somewhere between that time, that is super easy. This is not HSS sync which is very time critical and can cause banding etc. if not implemented correctly by the flash. Physically it is a completely different way to use flash :)
Sony usually doesn't limit things for the sake of it, there are reasons. As for why Alpha 1 and Alpha 9 III can't go full fps with 3rd party is because the E-mount specs back then were not written to let aperture blades close and open fast enough reliably at that speed. They only implemented that later, thats why even older Sony lenses need firmware updates to support 30fps or 120fps, and some even don't support it at all. Sony usually limits things in software because of physics, other than other camera manufacturers ;)...
