Merry Christmas dear fellowship!

I took this photo three days ago inside the Covid-19 intensive care station in Bolzano (Italy). This men is finally recovering after two weeks of intubation. The doctor is holding his hand while he has the first chat with him.

This is a small story of hope that may be a good omen for the year to come. I wish you all Merry Christmas and a quick recover from this very hard year!

Sony FX6 Is Now Approved For Netflix

Sony FX6 FF E-mount camcorder at BHphoto, FocusCamera and Adorama.

Via Alphauniverse:

The Sony FX6 has been added to the Netflix Approved Camera List, making it officially approved to be used for productions by the popular content platform. For all final Netflix productions, 90% of the total runtime is required to be captured on approved cameras. Only a select group of highly-capable cameras make the Netflix Approved Camera List. The FX6 had to meet minimum resolution and capture requirements, and other attributes like dynamic range, form factor, stability and workflow compatibility were also taken into consideration.

First curved sensor goes into mass production: When will Sony announce their patented RX Full Frame curved sensor camera?

The first curved sensor made it now officially into mass production. It’s from a French company named “Curve-One“. Here are some quick info about the sensor advantages

 

The interesting thing about this tech is that starting from 2015 Sony patented multiple sensors:

  1. An RX styled Full Frame curved sensor camera with 35mm f/1.8 (article here)
  2. A medium format system camera with curved sensor (article here).

It would make no sense for Sony to make an E-mount camera with curved sensor as all the existing lenses are not designed for this. An RX would certainly be a cool option while I think the medium format curved sensor system is definitely too expensive to make.
