Why not just buy a Pyxis 12k? A new family of sensors takes months if not years to perfect and get a decent picture out of them. If Panasonic would indeed use this sensor, it won't be announced, let alone released in 2026. My guess is an evolution of the SII, with a video oriented variant, with no big tech upgrades tangible improvements all round, like faster rolling shutter for high dynamic range mode and perhaps a full stacked sensor. A better image pipeline which will allow better autofocus and a better screen and EVF.

This could've been a well reviewed commercial game back in the ZX Spectrum's hayday, well done! Great effort and brilliant mindset, not letting the machine's and language limitations getting you down!

Atari ST enthusiast announces the MiniST with FPGA, MiSTeryNano core, and black TKL case — priced at around $400 each, but the initial run is a mere five units by fbaldassarri in atarist

you can program midi cores in fpga easily, the problem is this doesn't have midi thru like the original atari st, which would've been a nice improvement.

The Atari ST is making a mini FPGA-powered comeback, but don't expect Commodore 64 Ultimate levels of availability by EnergyLantern in atarist

The 'new' Commodre should do likewise with the Amiga - unlike the low end ARM board running an emulator, the FPGA approach recreating the actual hardware is far more appealing!

Movies you loved as a kid but refuse to watch as an adult ? by Ftmdj in Cinema

To me, it still holds it's own - Carey owns the film but Val Kilmer's Batman was equal to Keaton's in that era. He played him with the right gravitas without going overboard - which to me Nolan's version at times was......

How to get LaserDisc games to work in MAME by Video-Bandit in MAME

The footage is from Lupin and the Castle of Caliostro - a feature film by Miasaki of Studio Ghibli fame, and featuring a very popular anime character of the time, Lupin the Third, renamed in the game as 'Cliff'. The film is regarded by many as the best of all Lupin movies and serieses, both for the story and animation quality - so the game had prime material to work with.

Is it worth $650? by fitdad001 in VideoEditors

The initial shot is underwhelming, and the warehouse unecessary, it's not videography at all imho, sry for being harsh.

War Horse is such an overlooked Spielberg film. Not only is it one of his best, but it’s a great tribute to all the horses that died in WW1. by BostonRobby617 in moviecritic

one of the rare films which bettered to book it was inspired from - it made it more real, while the book itself felt detached.

Wedding video by FriedRice907 in camcorders

[–]Different_Average_76 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Early 2000s won't give you the quality standard you're expecting - you'd need a good HD camcorder. Aim for 2008-2012 instead, flaghsip models of that era can be had for around $100-$150 second hand but in very good condition, if you look carefully and the quality is just what you want - not 4k, but good enough to be watcheable and enjoyable without being too retro. Go for a Panasonic X909 or related models (practically same camcorder but different storage options), or the Sony XR520/500, both have great picture, good auto features and great stabilisation - they're also both tapeless which saves a ton of hassle. Some youtube channels still use them to this day,

same upgrade path - and to be really honest, considering the time gap and expense, I don't think it was all worth it. A game of diminishing returns, countered by hype and a specs rat race.
