Have a look at this link,Never mind 4K, or even 8K. Here’s what it’s like shooting at 10K!
This absolutely confirms a conclusion I came to years ago: Communications media have been about increasing fidelity and access from the dawn of time! Just so you know, fidelity has to do with video and audio resolution that enables the medium of communication to reflect reality, and access is about getting what I want, when and where I want it!
A couple of excerpts:
Each original frame has a resolution of 10328 x 7760 and weighs in at around 80MB per frame.
One of the standard tools with Timelapse is the motion controlled slider, but with this footage you can make HD pans, tilts and zooms that mean you almost don’t need a slider!
The visual fidelity is incredible and blows me away! This is especially true when I think about the software and hardware it takes to deal with that number of pixels.
Absolutely astounding!
I also recommend this guy’s (Joe Capra) Web site, Scientifantistic.com, which also has some stunning footage!
I retired as a professor at Brigham Young University (BYU) in 2016 where I was Associate Professor of French and Instructional Pyschology & Technology. I arrived there in 1992 after my retirement as a Lieutenant Colonel from a 20-year career in the US Air Force. Most of that time was spent on the faculty at the US Air Force Academy (USAFA), during what I call my first career. For over forty years I have been creating interactive video applications for supporting language. The lab at the Language Learning Center at USAFA engaged in ground-breaking efforts conducted within a mentored learning setting. The lab’s work involved the development of technologies and instructional design strategies for the use of video in the language acquisition process as well as with architectures that support online learning and facilitate learning about learning.
I have a BA in Political Science from BYU, an MBA from the University of Missouri, and a PhD in Foreign Language Education and Computer Science from The Ohio State University. At the Air Force Academy I was a key member of the team that designed what was then the largest interactive videodisc-based learning center on a college campus. When I retired from BYU I directed the ARCLITE Lab, which was involved in the creation of online learning materials for language learning as well as video and interactive technologies for learning.
