    The reason professionals want to shoot in 8K isn't for the image resolution for display, it's to give the ability to pan, zoom, crop, resize, rotate, and stabilize the video in post production before outputting a (usually 4K) downsampled final image.

    • @wds4097
      @wds4097 4 ปีที่แล้ว +362

      warrantowe No, that’s not what that means. The master cuts of most films (the version of the film is used for edits / production) are downsampled to 2K, a slightly widened 1080p. When those clips are downscaled and used in edits, that permanently lowers the master cut’s resolution, and any higher resolution versions of the film have to be upscaled for final release. Shooting in higher resolutions is just to give more control over zooming and focus, it has nothing to do with “future proofing.”

    • @ZeldagigafanMatthew
      @ZeldagigafanMatthew 4 ปีที่แล้ว +188

      @@warrentowe No. Future proofing would be recording in 8k, doing little to the composition of the image, saving the raw files, and then posting a compressed 4k or 1080p file to TH-cam. What Pretzels is talking about is flexibility in post. If you are targeting 1080p as your final medium, but recording in 8k (which is 16x more detail), you can zoom in onto a sixteenth of the image area without losing detail in the final render.

Why cell phone footage at 4K is not at all the same as 4K footage pulled from a DSLR or an aria. Plus other things such as optics, t stops, f stops, pulling focus, camera movements. And a whole bunch of other things. This Captain disillusion video would probably cover the first 15 minutes of a class.

      I agree, though. There are so many layers of information to be a competent photographer or videographer. I worked in camera sales for several years and spent hours just talking beginners and pros alike through colour theory, pixel density (yes, it's only 14mp, yes, it's better than your 40mp phone...), lenses (are you really going to shoot at f/1.2 at your kid's birthday? Cool). It was a fun time, but photographic/cinematic knowledge has really been devalued with the advent of digital photography.

    For spherical (360°) videos 8K is nice because it's stretched onto the whole 360°x180°. So normally you only see a small part of that at the same time, lets say 1080p.
    In this case 8K makes sense, but only really at the creators side, as our Captain said ✌️

      Whilst it is 360° round and 180° vertically, it's misleading to talk about it as 360°x180° because of the spherical geometry. Really, these videos should be described as 4pi (or 4pi steradians, 4pi sr for short), which I think is much better :)
      Although if you stretch it out on to a plane with some kind of horrible map projection (looking at you, Mercator...) then I suppose you could label it that way. But I still prefer the sound of an 8k 4pi video!

      Funny enough flicker is the biggest advantage of crts, also known as low persistence of vision, as it eliminates blur, with enough refresh rate (a bit north of 60hz) the flicker goes away.
      Almost every consumer crt monitor could be overclocked to display a refresh rate without flicker, although non standard rates only work with native pc content, videos and console games would get out of sync.
      If you are referring to interlaced flicker, crt computer monitors have progressive scan so no problem.

    This whole trend of "let's get the highest resolution possible" was started in Japan, where people would buy big TVs to put in their relatively small rooms. And in those situations higher resolution really does matter. The only reason why you can get away with low resolution of films in a cinema, is because everyone is far away from the screen. Once you get closer, it gets jarring.
    It's the same thing as with printing: something that will be looked up close (like a flyer) should be printed with really high resolution, but something that will be viewed from far away (like a billboard) can be printed in a abysmally low resolution. That's why your argument that "cinemas don't need high resolutions therefore you don't need high resolutions" was pretty weak.
    So yeah, resolution does matter for consumers, especially if they have a huge TV and they sit close to it.

    • @walkinmn
      @walkinmn 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Although i agree with the overall point, if you're getting a big Tv for watching close, you're already doing it wrong (i know people do that but it's still wrong). When you buy a bigger TV in theory you would need to put it further away than a smaller TV of course the resolution also its variable in here. The thing is that no matter if it's 8K, 4k or 1080 the quality of the experience does not only depend on the resolution and size, it also depends on the distance between your eyes and the TV (also the audio is very important which not a lot of people care about)

    Ah, marketers...they call it "High Definition" but it says nothing about the pixel density. And don't get me started on "Full HD"!

      Ah yes! Finally, we can see in Full High Definition! ...wait a second, you mean to tell me I can have a resolution higher than "Full HD"? What does that make it? Overfull HD? Double HD? Fuller HD? 200% HD?
      Oh. "Ultra-HD". Of course.
      I hate marketing.
