And big long zoom lenses for cinema is no thing of the past. Canon just came out with this true hulk. Incredible. 1000mm is a *really* long tele, trust me. (With few exceptions, it's the longest anybody makes.)
4K. (4x the pixels of HD)
50-1000mm. Loooong zoom. Surely in top quality.
$78,000. Thus the price...

It's funny how much is already being invested in 4K resolution cameras and such, when nobody yet has a solution as to how to distribute that extreme resolution... :-)
Heck, I just invested a minor fortune in spring to get a 4K monitor (only two types were available), and then just yesterday, Apple announces, get this, not only a 4K monitor, a 5K monitor, and it's an iMac! Apple is cwaaaaazy! (There is no "5K" format, it's just Apple's way of saying "we got even more pixels than 4K, bitches".)
Sad there's no in-situ photo of this, because I'll bet ya that this is not one you want to try to hand-hold.
ReplyDeleteROFLMAO!! I'm seeing a rather comical scene of a dude laying on the ground w/this dude embedded on the front of him, lengthwise; him out cold!! OUCH!! :-P LOL!! :-D

Oh nooooo...you did NOT!! :-( Is it too late to cancel the order...or would you even want this monitor??

I didn't read the specs, so are you saying it is BOTH 4K & 5K? Turds!! Will be interesting to see how long they sit on that technology...and, then, they'll have to spend extra $ to do an upgrade, when that issue finally gets addressed... Glad it's not my problem... :-/
Mine is a different brand.
ReplyDeleteVery nice.
Though, in general, how anybody can see any difference between, say, 300PPI and 400PPI is beyond me.
Video, and most things, scale. A "5K" monitor can easily show 4K video, or HD video, or SK video, or whatever.
One of the points of the iMac is that you can show fairly high resolution material anywhere on the screen. For example show multiple versions of a photo or still from a video. Where Apple has the advantage is that they are doing this with an all-in-one so they don't have the communication speed limits between computer and monitor. It will be at least another year before Intel have the version of DisplayPort that allows a computer to drive this size of monitor over a single cable.
ReplyDeleteHmm, good point.
ReplyDeleteThough Apple has Thunderbolt, that can surely handle this resolution, when it can handle three displays all showing 4K.
It would be a bit weird if Apple does not come out soon with a super Retina display for the Mac Pro.
1000mm is a *really* long tele, trust me.
ReplyDeleteYeah. 1 metre. :-)
Yes, that is pretty durn long, Dick.
