@Richard Butler First, I had to look up that term. Fascinating story, definitely going to keep that in mind!

In that case, you should probably reverse the dimensions and the "Type". Putting the...

The problem was asking users what they wanted, then not following through. Coming up with a new system is great and they took great steps trying to research it when reading it to the community. We...

@Tom Still no. That's not what users asked for. They asked for dimensions. The bulk of the negative responses, from what I can understand, see that the dimensions aren't the descriptor, the "Type"...

That's not what users asked for. They asked for dimensions. The negative response here, from what I can understand, sees that the dimensions aren't the descriptor, the "Type" is, and the dimensions...

They have not made this clear. They've approached this ad is they were trying to find a method the community approved of. Adopting a method a corporation uses doesn't always make sense if their...

Had you just suggested this without asking users how they felt about it would be one thing, but you ran a poll asking users which method would be most intuitive to describe sensor size, then...

@Tom No, they have not. The top result of the poll was to use sensor dimensions. For example, the sensor dimensions for the sensor in the Sony a7iv are 35.90mm x 23.90mm. Members indicated that...

Rounding up hides things.

@Tom No they are not. Type 1 standing for 1" is just replacing the diagonal inch measurement with the word 'type'. Dimensions means A x B, two measurements which multiply to a surface area.

They asked members how they would classify it in a poll the other week, then ignored the results and did whatever they wanted, going against what most users found to be simple and intuitive.

So, was asking for our opinion on how to describe it in that poll the other week pointless? Seems like the responses here are mostly negative. That's an absolutely terrible usage of user research...

True, but even those companies still use specs as marketing tools. The camera has been a major marketing tool for most new phones.

Manufacturers probably want to avoid using sensor dimensions. It would reveal that some sensors are larger than others despite being labeled as "FF" or "APS-C".

In terms of the look of the photos, maybe, but discussing the sensor size itself regardless of final output is rather confusing with the current methods.

Exactly the way it should be, though this would be the hardest method to implement since certain companies want nothing to do with FF.

I really like this expansion, but light/power is almost always lost when introducing wires. How much light efficiency will be lost with this attachment? Any indication of this anywhere?

The only upside to the video aspect of this would be if it could handle ProRes RAW since Resolve can't. Highly unlikely that Rush will support that though...

It's kind of amazing that the only substantial leaks about this camera have been from Sony themselves. They've kept a tight lid on leaks from this so far, kind of funny they're the ones who "messed...

Able to - yes. Likely - no. Sony has never used the USB that way before. Would be great if they changed that, but it's unlikely to be the case.

I mean, I think it's only fair that the green leaves should be green, not purple...
