Why Are Modern Cameras Ignoring This Feature?

The funnest spec of any camera? Its slow motion capabilties. Why are we seeing companies over and over again remove slow mo from their cameras? Sony RX100 series and ZV1 could do 960fps, and now their newer ZV1 II can't. Huawei P40 Pro could do 7680fps and now the Pura 70 Ultra can only do 960fps. If we aren't reaching for higher and higher frame rates, what are we even doing? 8k? 16k? How does that improve our cinematic scenes?

The flight vectoring of Bees blow me away every time I see them in slow motion, super neat...

One only need to look at a9iii and find out why

A6500 has a buffer around 3gb and so does the a7iii, the a6500 can do around 300 jpegs, but something like 300 fps means youll need a stack sensor and around 4-5gb of ram to store it all in, probably 6-7 realistically to run the af calculation at that speed and not have it freeze up.

Then theres the matter of offloading the files.

A video feed of 4k120 at 10-12 bit is hard, imagine 14 bit at twice or triple the speed, and raw at that, with bitrates nearing raw videos at that point

At 2:42... the bumblebee's wings seem as though they are in sync with the fast vibrato of the synth in your soundtrack.

As I already mentioned on your other video's, the A9iii has insect detect and DMF. Insect detect works better on butterflies like that Comma you were shooting than the bees. It also has bird eye detect...though I'm not sure how well it would have picked out the Yellow Warbler at a distance with the 90mm. If you had your 200-600mm, you could have zoomed right in on it, and if needed, used manual focus to fine tune. However, it is a heavy lens for hand holding. I use a tripod with gimbal mount.

I used my 90mm yesterday for the first time in while and remembered why i haven't sold it.

Cool slo-mo. That's a yellow warbler BTW.

I wonder why you use a box for AF on Nikon Zf? Does it not detect you reliably in Full Area AF with Eye detect?

I do shoot 500 and 1000fps with the sony rx10iv

There's something quite "Austin Powers-ish" about all of this... Blaming Canada. Cool when that bee shifts into forward and bugs it.

The 800pf lens is awesome, but good luck tracking a bird taking off of it's perch

[PhotoGearFun]

The yellow bird at 7:45 looks like a Yellow Warbler.

Anything above 24fps is just a gimmick😅

[protoping]

the p40 pro just interpolated shit up to this....

I’m super depressed today so I’m watching this video again to help improve my mood❤️
