Hmnn, that is roughly 2000x larger and 3000x faster than my first IBM 340 MB microdrive - but at the same price, not even factoring in inflation since 2001!
And that drive could hold an incredible 100 RAW files from my EOS D30 - which was capable of a blistering 3 FPS!
Guys - this is DPreview, not DPcomedy.
Stick to the facts and that video may have been only a couple of minutes long - and I would have watched it to the end.
MightyMike: Only $20K? I'll take 3 of them! ;)
But you only need two to build a 1:1 macro !
Excellent image :-)
I visited the "Tambopata Lodge" in the Peruvian Amazon many years ago - I do not suppose there is a connection?
Perhaps they could also make an adapter so that you could use your real digital camera to shoot the image from the film camera ... now there is an unexplored potential!
And it could make that old film camera shoot 20 fps, have face recognition and do 4K video ...
She must be becoming one of the most photographed young ladies around :-)
I imagine this may have inspired a few sedimentologists, volcanologists, viscositologists and other odd sorts of scientists as a means to study their scienceses of fluid dynamics :-)
Great planning and capture :-)
As an idea, you may try to crop it a little to get rid of the sky and then mirror it around the left side (crop again a little) to make a face with two eyes?
This is more a survey of the DPReview users than it is of the lenses being voted about. I realize you note it is meant to be for fun, but never the less it will have some marketing potential for which ever brand wins
This will not go down well with the/us pixel peepers :-)
Stunning!
Kjeld Olesen: Recall the copyright soap opera with the images taken by a monkey - the owner of the camera, did not get to hold the copyright because he had not pressed the shutter.
Now, will owner of these camera not be able to claim copyright to the images it takes even if he/she sets it up?
In my mind the settlement does not indicate that PETA lost

Quite nice, but I would have prioritized R&D resources for an update to the EF 50/1.4 :-)
mr.izo: 1:1 is not exactly something to brag about.
They weren't bragging, merely stating the facts ;-)
Nr 5 - I am sure Chanel thinks this marketing stinks ;-)
This was amazing to watch and amazingly well done.
But then imagine 5 years from now when Phantom has developed real time eye detection autofocus .... ;-)
Kjeld Olesen: Am I missing something?
For the price you could "grab" a +4k camera, possibly a 8k camera, so does the camera not deliver sufficient horizontal resolution for the vast amount of applications? So there is really no need for this lens???
Edit: Actually, an anamorphic lens doesn't even provide more horizontal resolution, that will be limited by the imager - it provides more vertical resolution, compressing it back by whatever horizontal compression factor the lens provided.
But vertical resolution is where our human eyes are not to sensitive to begin with, so surely, I must be missing something ...

What about Countacks?
