No need to transfer, just edit it on the phone.

The nearest to this so far is the Insta360 one, with modular units for each lens type. Not a bad idea, but seems to cost more and so far doesnt seem to be a threat to Gopro.

I dont think Im suggesting human direction isnt worthwhile, more about the means to get there. Using your eye as the director is great if only the 'target' matters, but Ill be interested to see...

Bytes are cheap if the importance is to 'get the shot'. If Mr Lewis is overtaking, theres probably going to be 20+ happening anyway.

My point is more that once all this split second talk...

Im not talking specialist cases, Im more dubious about the 'trickle down' idea that this will become more mainstream over time.

Perhaps Im being too doubtful, I can just see the word 'gamechanger'...

I can see the advantages for specialist cases, but when I see the calibration and the concern about still getting things wrong, it seems like a fair amount of investment. If its just about getting...

I take the point but the competing tech long term is automatic subject acquisition. With the R6, you could have just been pressing the people AF button instead of manual AF acquisition.

Because...

Identikit and eye witness isnt exactly perfect either.

Obviously misuse and incorrect understandings are a concern, but there might be some room for being helpful as well.

It was more a comment on how tough it is for field photographers employment-wise nowadays. I can see how it might be seen as a diss on Sony but it wasn't meant to be.

I suspect any field photographer still employed these days would happily use a kodak brownie if it let them keep their job,

Im not seeing it either, same firmware.

There for me, downloaded and installed. Now I just need to be able to leave the house.

I do too, but it appears to be a near exact copy of a manfrotto 410

Id be tempted to see if I could put an LCD viewfinder on the screen?

Tried a different lens, preferably a recent Canon EF/RF?  Thats all I can think of, then Id say its the camera.

Choosing where you want the AF to be rather than letting the camera decide might still have some use. As in not every focus point desired is an eye.

A bit niche but they can also be great fun for underwater photography where reducing the water between lens and subject can actually be a bonus.

Wide angle macro can give a difference perspective, there is a reason they're sold.

Canon rumors reported it from a 'reliable source'.  The time line is 'this year'. So maybe real, but nothing official.

Benro and Sunwayfoto make stuff at a similar level to Sirui in my view.
