As you increase the cameras resolution you get more high frequency detail (Assuming optics can handle it)

Pretty sure the optics can handle it, 65mm is closer to 8K than 4

Isn't it more about sensors and noise since nobody uses film
we did a music video today with a 7D and some nice glass. it's cool how much you can do with cheap equipment these days

Yeah the SNR is more the limit now than anything but 65/70mm is still in use for a lot of bigger productions (The Dark Knight)

Yeah, sadly CUDA h.264 encoders aren't quite there yet, the video tends to look kinda flat.

the TV I have literally does not display individual pixels and even tho it displays at 1080p there's a dumb glow to everything. 1080p is a marginal improvement over 720 because of this. the sharpness is just blurred out by the panel

how come my $150 cheap monitor looks amazing but my $600 cheap tv looks like distilled rear end and also doesn't even display images correctly as they are piped into it

Wondering this too, tvs are expensive as hell and look like rear end.

i found that blurring one of the two a/b channels didnt result in a very obvious difference. this is weird to me because i assumed it should have. loving around with this is fun but idk why photoshop makes it much harder to do than normal fuckery? is it because im trying to use one channel and not all, or is this a limitation of LAB

photoshop is weird with channels, once you get used to it it's not half bad but there's some weird UI differences that take getting used to

yeah I don't mean that you can't see the difference between 60 and 120fps I just mean trying to figure out what framerate is 'seamless' based on the human eye probably won't work out because of how human vision works.

seriously though i'm pretty sure it's well established that the eye rapidly scans the field of vision and cobbles together the scene from many smaller samples meaning that it probably doesn't have a discrete 'framerate'

if my computer has 7.1 speakers and this little thing can I decode 7.1 DTS-HD?

if you have a blu-ray drive and the disk space, you might as well rip the movie. with makemkv it only takes a few clicks and an hour of time.

i have a few hundred gigs but honestly the only advantage of ~physical media~ is that i can play it now and get special features and stuff not "haha hey girl wanna watch a movie? okay lemme just rip it to my hard drive for an hour haha"

probably belongs in computing confessions but albums from the 70's sound better on the original vinyl 99% of the time. i think the only good 'remastered' album I've heard is deep purples machine head.

its because older people have been trained to expect the flaws of vinyl as a normal thing, meanwhile younger people never put up with it and besides they aren't getting cds in the first place because its 2013.

much like all the idiots who will refuse to watch movies shot above 24 fps
