RE: Re: Re: [Avid-L2] Better vs. More

 

Okay Mark,


Then I will repeat my major question which no one has answered to date. What is the maximum resolution we want to send to the home? I just want a real target. 


     Is it the maximum the human eye can resolve?


     Is it the maximum we can ever record from a camera?


     Is it the maximum resolution of the entire universe?


     Just give a me a number. I for one believe we are there already for the typical home viewer, but I reserve the right to be wrong. But without a target, we are just feeding into the manufacturers equipment cycle model.

In any of my arguments, did I ever say I wasn't wishing for better dynamic range, color gamut, bit depth, or compression technology? No, I did not. It is definitely not "all about resolution", another thing which I never said. I don't think anyone in this (or any of the other innumerable) threads has ever said that.

I want better quality, and it means all of those things. To eliminate one of those improvements out of hand simply because the consumer (in a home, on a TV) might not benefit is, in my view, absurd.

If it's all about resolution, then a cheap 18 megapixel camera would give you better picture quality than an old 10 megapixel SLR with Nikon glass, right?

There are quite a few people on this list (myself included) who would like to see quality improvements in every aspect of their post workflow. Speaking for myself, (and I suspect I'm not alone) resolution is not at the top of the priority list.

Arguing against that, to me, is arguing against quality, and I prefer quality.
