Accidentally the most dramatic camera work ever seen in the commons just now...

@MKBHD Carrot works great for me in the US but here in Japan, live precipitation for my area is almost always wrong. Temperature is fine but on a rainy day it’ll usually tell me the opposite of what’s happening. I wish you were able to personally report like dark sky did!

Of ALL the incredible moments I’ve seen here in PARK CITY since my first SUNDANCE in 2003, THIS is one I’ll NEVER FORGET! The SCENE-STEALING KIDS from “THE MUSICAL” take the stage to a STANDING OVATION after their packed SUNDANCE PREMIERE! This movie is AMAZING!! #Sundance2026

@needtofilm @internetvin Brother everything you’re saying is why I said HDR is overhyped. It’ll improve but that doesn’t mean it still isn’t all it’s hyped up to be right now. I’ve listened to that podcast. I’ve gone through the same issues with my own work. It’s mostly BS right now! Key word: mostly!

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin I’m saying we already record in the color space but the majority of everything we shoot still fits comfortably fits in that (40mph) white triangle. HDR presentation is awesome when it’s utilized to its potential but doesn’t make SDR inferior. Same thing with 3D vs 2D screenings.

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin And color saturation is always in between that black and white so for a Toy Story 4 HDR vs SDR, Buzz and Woody’s color wouldn’t change. Why would it? Maybe a highlight or two is more dazzling but there’s probably little if nothing in that movie’s color spectrum that’s in rec2020

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin The SDR data of light being black at 0% and white at 100% won’t change no matter what format you present in. HDR is basically saying you’ll occasionally get white that feels brighter than 100% because they’re just pumping more lumens into those spots. But white is still white.

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin It’s more about creating a safety net to work within so that you don’t hit the edge when you do come across the unnatural and uncontrollable scenarios. That’s ultimately the benefit.

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin The reality is most of the content you’re watching in “HDR” fits well within P3 with the occasional highlight getting a bit of extra punch. Just because we’re shooting 16-bit raw or recording 32-bit audio doesn’t mean it unlocks a whole new spectrum to us.

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin I’m not even going to say anymore, feel free to watch this 2 hour presentation if you want to argue with one of the best DPs alive about HDR vs SDR https://t.co/NqtKvJqIsd

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin Thats the thing, the projection based system is STILL the standard. So filmmakers are going to continue using that to create their artistic output and have everything else be tone mapped to that. There’s benefits to the format but it’s literally only for edge cases.

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin I guarantee you not a single person watched Oppenheimer in theaters and complained that the bomb going off in that needed to be brighter. Including the artists that made the movie. And those are finished at either 48, 80, or 108 nits. With Dolby being 108 peak nits. 🤷 imax is 80

[Tu @two_dough]

@needtofilm @imPatrickT @internetvin HDR is a overhyped. There’s technical gains but the reality is most films SDR and HDR releases are finished to be as 1 to 1 as possible because there should be one intended way to experience the image.
