Probably not. I never really liked the 5D III, so anything would most likely be an improvement. For me the main concern is improved AF at f/5.6, higher framing rate and of course the 30 MP. Low ISO DR should be very good, but high ISO noise will about what one would expect. On a per image...

You don't have a fogger for smoke studies? :lol:

You truncated the response. :D Anyway, I have to use the GUIFormat32 for the CF memory cards. Stupid Windows only allows NTFS or exFAT. :(

Anyone get the clutch foot? I've never heard of it and I don't have the old-fashioned cars.

All you whippersnappers are spoiled with that nonsense on the interwebs. :D When in the history of the world has there been a mid-sized SLR capable of 7FPS or more without an external motor or battery grip? ;) Of course it can be done with enough battery power and additional costs. The shutter...

I thought phones had the BlueTooths and Wi-Fi also. You can go slower than 7FPS if it is too fast. :) CF or SD or any memory card is unrelated to the mirror/shutter cycle speed.

Ordinarily that would be kind of creepy, but I suppose not unusual at such a venue. Without stabilization isn't the video nauseating, or do you just stand in one place?

No, that's even worse. I'd like about 2:3. My 5:8 display is as short as I can handle. Do the fancy video cards allow for any image size you want or is a hacker needed to do that?

Squarish panels nowadays are almost always reserved for special purposes like medical or aerospace. Typically costs are very high and they are not necessarily good for photos.

No, I mean reducing the width compared to the height. The 16:9 is awful for viewing. I'd like to make the edges black.

The latest updates confirm the specs and have images. The 5D IV has all sorts of connectivity, but no auto AF calibration. There is also mention of additional touchscreen features. I hope they are not mandatory or it will really suck if the body is used in bad weather. :crap:

Oh well. I'll keep what fanless thing I have for now, but my monitor is really dying out. It's looking like I would have to get a 2560 x 1440 and see it there is some way to cut off the sides.

The ergonomics alone of shooting 4 hours of video with a phone just buggers the mind. Do you have some special mount or robot arms? ;)

Around 3AM I accidentally GUI formatted FAT32 the entire internet, outlook, data SSD instead of the CF card. Then I copied it all back but the internet takes forever to open. W/R testing and formatting 1.5 TB of cards late at night is not the best idea. :oops:

Does that still limit the CPU to four cores and four memory slots?

Prices won't go down very quickly when there is no competition. At the very least we should see 2TB drives from the other mainstream manufacturers. There's no way I would buy drives from a "Munchkin" company.

It's rather past Q2 and Mushkin doesn't even have a 2TB reactor drive, much less 4TB. More Vorpwares. :(

Maybe I could have used a better icon. It was only a play on the title.

OK, I fixed it. ; ) Unfortunately the US versions must be purchased with a drive and 1TB is useless.

Maybe you use the phone too much overall. There are also better choices for shooting hours of video. :)

That last part is the best policy.

The NVS2801 is coming soon. Now of course if the 5D IV is not equipped with CFast there is not as much need for it. :eek4:

It seems like Divorce really, really, really sucks!!! :(

I think the Germans tried that shit and it didn't work out. :( Diversity of genes, including some that confer lower survivability under ordinary conditions, are beneficial or even necessary for long term survival of a species under challenging conditions.

The updated rumonger specs include Wi-Fi. That SD card device will be like an Eye-Fi for other Canon cameras, but not sucky and web based. 30.4 MP at 7 FPS is an interesting compromise. It really needs more RAM than the 5DsR or 1DX to keep that buffer free with CF cards.

I used the 320KB MP3 setting in Lame for many years and it seems OK.

Yes I did. The one made by the Judge.

It seems like a lot of horseshit from a 35-year old. How to get laid, really?

No CFast means 2.5 FPS after the buffer fills. :( I doubt there is space for CFast and CF, and everyone wants sn SD option.

A horde of the Losers started climbing into our photo landscapes early one morning in Nevada or maybe it was Utah. They all had the T-shirts and there was a big van with the logos on it. The Losers climbed pretty well on the rock paths, but they were not hugely overweight. By the time they...

We should make the oboes ride bicycles until they lose weight or drop dead. ;)

I agree. Whoever is at fault is at fault, though there may be comparative negligence. If the dipshit in the Miata drives negligently and smashes into a lawful, safely driving Suburban, the Miata may be 100% at fault. Even if the Miata driver expires, his/her insurance would have to pay the...

It was over 133 million, but not me. ;)

Maybe some of the pros can answer, but I'd be surprised if drives are normally intended used much beyond 5 years in storage servers.

There is no dilemma. People can drive what they want and are accountable for any negligence. Drivers of large vehicles need to be cognizant of that risk and likewise drivers of small cars need to accept their safety risks. I just don't want a light, flimsy vehicle due to the limitations of...

TCO needs to include the other computer components, enclosures, ordering, building, physical space, and FBC for storage management. Then you can better judge the importance of the hard drive costs. You seem to be hung up on cheap and reliable, which makes no sense in the marketplace. Stop...

Is that the wrong link or is there an electric version I'm not seeing? I've been driving well over 40 years and never owned a vehicle that small. The shortest vehicle I had was around 194" and the longest around 230".

If some drunk or idiot causes an accident I want decent chances even if they are in a 5000 lb. vehicle.

In case you don't notice, people drive like maniacs. I want a solid and decently sized vehicle with shoulder room. I want to be comfortable and breathe. I'm too old to drive some tiny POS. :D

Why on Earth would I want to ride a bicycle? I'm not 12 or an athlete and I have to be presentable at work. I'd drive some stupid electric car before that. :lol: Can't the Chinese put a small gas motor in an electric SUV to keep it running when no outlets or time are available? I'd buy...

I never understand their logic. Does the Backblaze just buy whatever is on sale that week? Most of the cheap drives are not designed for ser multi-disk environment with vibration detection and compensation, so how do they account for that?

:salut: :rofl:

Maybe I need to change my orientation. I wish there were some way to change it in software/firmware.

What are you doing that requires that equipment and cannot be done another way? Do the Feds or other orgs need that card for something vital?

That's what I would expect too, the Chinese.

Yeah. I don't understand why the software requires hardware that is not yet available.

Don't you have urgent care centers nearby? An infection should be treated immediately, if that's what you have. If you are a caregiver, then who takes care of you?

AFAIK, helium is not yet used in the portable 2.5" drives. Frankly those drives have been the types that tend to fail for me far more often than 3.5" drives in a tower case. I mitigate portable drive failures with at least three copies of data. Of course at <$100 for a 2TB drive a few failures...

It's 2016. Some common sense needs to be applied. If you think that the two main HDD companies WD and Seagate are building terrible products, then how are they staying in business under the warranty? There needs to be a balance between cost of the drives and reliability. It is OK for drives...
