What you describe shows that this is emphatically not a lens mount issue. No wobbling causes that. 12-24 HSM is a front-heavy lens and causes no problems. Why? Because it has a relatively tiny ...

JNG is very conspicuously missing from the comparison.

JPEG2000 was a stillborn effort because it was proprietary. JPEG XL is open source, backwards compatible and adds desirable features.

But then again, JNG was all that, too, and didn't get traction.

@brownie314: The hi-fi analogy is flawed in that it doesn't go along the line you describe.
There are people who listen to music and people who listen to sound.

The former will want the best...

Listen, that's nice, but it has literally zero bearing on my problem. You can expect your co-workers to do it right. So the cameraman won't play with his camera settings. Before HD days, you didn't ...

One video is MPEG-4 encoded with H264. Another is on DVD, so presumably MPEG-2. Before doing anything with the DVD (that would require me to pick up a DVD drive first and probably rip the video), ...

The only two differences are that the frequency is 50 Hz instead of 59.94 Hz and for SD video, vertical resolution is 576 lines (horizontal 720 or 704) instead of 480 (horizontal 640). So ...

Bingo! That's exactly what the problem is.

There are two sides to copyright: Right of authorship and right to profit from a work.

The moral rights are immutable and perpetual, period.
Only the author has claim to be the author of a...

I'm happy you replied, I'm sure you will be able to help me once I explain it better, maybe. If the video was saved as interlaced, it would show it's in 50 fps interlaced. As it is now, it shows ...

@Joseph S Wisniewski: Glad to see you're back.
You may want to edit your profile. Swiss Army Fork, the page that "pushed «unfinished» to the limit" is no longer there, and the domain is parked.

Come to think of it, I doubt it's a mechanical issue. It could be easily proven by holding the camera upside down, or pointing upwards, so that the lens contact pads press against the contact pins ...

I cannot imagine how it would happen. A mount has been around for a long while, problems with SSM lenses are well known and documented and I doubt that a simple  cause like this was never noticed ...

I guess I may have not explained it correctly. I have a video that is saved as progressive 480p25. It was originally shot as 480i50, but was subsequently naïvely deinterlaced by merging alternating ...

Could go either way. It might reduce demand because you won't be able to repair it, leading to lower prices, but it might also have an opposite effect when supply is going to start drying up.

Thanks, I'll try it. I don't think there's a trial version available, but I have access to Corel VideoStudio and I'll try it as soon as I can.

If you have two full frame bodies, you're eligible for Sony Pro Services. You might want to check it out, I remember they had something regarding priority service and parts availability among the ...

The question is basically in the title. I have some interlaced videos which were naively saved as progressive scan by combining odd and even fields and they exhibit strong combing. I wanted to try ...

Consider why f/2.8 zooms were important 20 years ago. I'll list five reasons: (1) Brighter viewfinder image¹ (2) Better focus separation¹ (3) P ...
