Sharp Vl Z5 Drivers For Mac: Support for Multiple Formats and Resolutions

OK. I haven't researched this much but it seems to me that the RX100 series cameras are a lot like a jazzed up version of the HX99. Add a larger sensor, then a fast, but much shorter lens - very sharp, then PDAF, then a longer, but slower (still faster then the HX99) lens, Then improve the focusing. Others may find additional differences. Now basically you have an HX99 with a 1 inch sensor, PDAF, and a slightly faster lens, and maybe a bit of improved focusing. Is it worth $1300-$1400, I don't know, but not waiting with baited breath for Sony to cram something else in.

This is an awesome camera. I have travelled with it both as a standalone and a backup to Nikon's D810 and Z5 where the larger cameras almost become dead weight in my bag. It has a sharp, contrasty lens. Awesome color. Super fast and accurate autofocus using the tracking modes. Shadow noise becomes an issue really quick as the ISO goes up, but in general, it's pretty good up to 1600 if you don't try to push the shadows much. Max shutter speed is 2000 mechanical shutter and 32000 electronic; in most situations, I just let the camera decide for me which shutter to use and I've experienced no issues.

Thanks, grandave. Mrbofus, low light can actually mean pretty low, like a bar or restaurant at night, but it could also mean a naturally lit museum interior during the day. Basically any situation where you have to push the ISO past 1600 to stop subject motion or get a steady still without a tripod. 1600 ISO is where things tend to break down noise-wise for this sensor. But, then again, I've gotten descent results at 3200 in post process with a little careful noise reduction and sharpening. Check out the concert pics at the album link I posted above; they were mostly shot handheld at 3200 ISO with some post process corrections. If the image quality suits you there, the you should be happy with this camera in dim situations.

But does it zoom to 200mm?? Can it track a dog or toddler at said 200mm? Does it have an optical zoom at all?? Does it have a view finder?? What about a relatively clean iso1600? The list goes on...The answer is NO to all of them btw. This dedicated camera blows the iPhone out of the water.The pixel 3 is comparable to the iPhone if not better. Go ahead and look at the studio scene compared to the pixel 3. Then click the comp in the upper right hand corner. Then look at the left side of the studio scene. At anything.... (The lens is soft on the right side.) But honestly, the Canon g5x mk2 is even better on both sides. The quality is not going to be better on the iphone. It's not in the same league. The comp down res's the 20mp to 12. That's just in jpegs. Let alone in raw where you can add some sharpening...ECT...If you can't justify the cost. Don't buy it. But people who can afford it and that will use the features. It's worth it to them.

The tiny cameras, which weigh just 1.4g, fit inside the padding of a driver's helmet, offering viewers at home an eye-level perspective as F1 cars race through the corners of the world's most exciting race tracks. In 2023, all drivers will be required to wear the cameras.

The Z9's electronic viewfinder is excellent as well. Before diving into the specifics, it's worth pointing out that it's extremely bright. At default settings, it looks somewhat typical, but if you dive into the Setup Menu, then select Viewfinder brightness, you can set it to Hi.2, which at about 3,000 nits is brighter than the maximum brightness of my HDR television and MacBook Pro's HDR display (1,600 nits). The black levels are quite good even at the maximum brightness, which is impressive, although perhaps unsurprising since it's an OLED panel. It's not as sharp as the EVF in the A1 (3,690K dots versus 9,437K dots), nor does it have as much magnification (0.8x versus 0.9x), but the Z9's EVF is nonetheless extremely impressive.

While I'm unfortunately not qualified to fully address shooting performance due to a lackluster XQD card, I can talk about other aspects of the Z9 that are very impressive. I've talked quite a bit about the EVF, but it's worth discussing again within the context of continuous shooting. The EVF is so good when shooting high-speed bursts. It's never been so easy to track a moving subject while shooting at 20 frames per second. At 120fps, it's great too, although the EVF itself refreshes at 60fps. What's somewhat interesting about the EVF, though, is that even if other EVFs offer faster refresh rates or more resolution, the Z9's felt smoother and sharper in use. I think this is because it's just so steady, no matter what you're doing. In contrast, other EVFs can sometimes be jarring with changes in resolution during autofocus, surprising brightness shifts when metering or just other quirks that never bothered me before but might bother me now after using the Z9.

The 8K/30p video is very sharp and offers impressive quality. Of course, 8K video may be overkill for many applications, so what 8K video also allows for is a lot of cropping options for either 1080p or 4K final output. In the compilation below, you can see various 8K/30p clips shot with 1/60s shutter speed and a range of ISO settings. At the 0'45" mark below, there's a clip shot at ISO 12,000, which is the highest ISO in the video. Even at this high ISO, the quality isn't bad. The dynamic range is visibly reduced, and you can't make out all the fine detail in the scene, but it still looks good. The next clip at 0'55" is shot at ISO 5400 and shows quite a bit better detail. Nonetheless, the 8K video has good colors, excellent detail and impressive tonality. If you shoot N-Log video, you can push the camera quite far.

At 4K resolution, which I imagine is how many people will be shooting, the Z9 delivers great performance. You can record 4K/30p video like I did in the compilation below, or 4K/24, 4K/60 or even 4K/120. The 4K video quality is excellent at 24p and 30p. To my eyes, 4K footage is a bit softer at 120p than it is at 30p, although the 4K/120p footage is still sharp and detailed. See if you can notice a difference between the next two videos (although YouTube isn't the best way to compare videos, unfortunately). 2ff7e9595c
