From black and white to color, from flat to HDR — a small act of restoration for a figure whose work quite literally illuminated the modern world.
Thomas Edison does not need enhancement to be relevant, but careful colorization and dynamic range recovery can collapse historical distance. It reminds us that these were real people, standing next to real machines, shaping the present we now take for granted.
This restoration is less about aesthetics and more about perspective: history feels closer when it looks alive.
Now a question for you:
Which historical mind, inventor, scientist, or pioneer would also deserve this kind of visual restoration — and why?
PIXELS NEED TRAINING.
Your eyes adapt.
Your brain adapts.
But pixels don’t — unless you train them.
Out of the box, even the best displays guess.
Guessing colors.
Guessing brightness.
Guessing contrast.
Calibration is where guessing stops.
Suddenly reds are reds.
Shadows have detail.
Highlights breathe.
HDR makes sense.
Wide gamut becomes usable, not just impressive.
Once you’ve seen calibrated pixels,
you can’t unsee it.
🚨 **32K VIDEO EDITING: Your laptop just unlocked the future of ultra-high-res!** 🚨
DaVinci Resolve 20.3 makes it real—import, edit, and export massive 32K footage (that's 8x the horizontal resolution of 4K, packing a whopping 64x more pixels) on your Apple M5 Mac. Perfect for Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65 clips, epic VR worlds, immersive installations, or VFX that demand god-tier detail.
But TVs? Still huffing and puffing at 8K (just 4x the pixels of 4K, aka one gen ahead). 😂 "Why's our 8K screen feeling retro? Oh, right—laptops are already editing two generations beyond!" With 32K workflows possible on portable rigs, 8K displays might finally get the content push they deserve. Who's gearing up for next-level HT setups?

I absolutely love this new piece of HDR content as it is really challenging and showcasing even the best HDR TVs out there. What do you think?

Some BT.2020 colors in a recent shooting of aquariums. Finally, youtube processed the HDR (which takes multiple days sometimes). The BT.2020 colors appeared because of UV lighting in some of the aquariums. I’d be interested to hear how the colors appear on different HDR capable phones and TVs.

This is a first impression of the production / post production studio room of the new InnoPQ™ Display Lab, guess what will be produced here... Stay tuned!
We worked with Nature Portfolio to sponsor an amazing collection of articles on quantum dots from the Nobel winners, making it free for everyone to read through December. So much great material on the development of quantum dots over the last 4 decades!

Cinematic pans and 5x (120mm) Zoom-in with the iPhone 15 Pro Max and in HDR? I tried it with the Blackmagic camera app and here‘s the HDR video of it: https://t.co/1EkgFAR6ta

@ogriff79 Hi Owen, to some extent it will. Maybe even better with our latest Plugin Chromaclean. That said, there’s no complete solution to make it disappear once in the picture
Have a long drive to visit family this Thanksgiving? Listen to episode 14 of The Display Show ft. Florian Friedrich of @picturesff during your commute! Although, if you have the time then we suggest watching this episode as it is a highly visual one. https://t.co/faYreyUqOR
On my way back home from IFA 2019 in Berlin. On my way home from IFA2019... Much love and passion was shared about 8K. As with every new technology, controverse discussions made it THE hottest topic of the show. I‘m… https://t.co/kLUgHMh657
@robertheron Dear Robert, thank you for sharing it. I made it in different formats. Youtube is only one path. The best way to see it is to download it as a file which I‘ll be providing in my 8K Newsletter. An 8K pattern at the end shows if 8K resolution is achieved.
