••The Foundry is developing tech to correct "rolling shutter"••

just download the software and play around. it works quite well already. "all" he's doing is automating the process.

It'd be nice if they could just integrate that algorithm into the hardware on the cameras.... Though I bet the big companies would just rebrand it and charge more for it...
 
i disagree. cameras already try too hard. everything they do cause artifacts and if we don't have control over the process it's bound to wreck things.

This goes beyond DSLRs, but with regards to CMOS usage for all cameras, they put controls in pro cameras... Imagine it similar to optical image stabilization, you can turn it on and off. I just know clients would be less than enthused to watch a production monitor and not see what they are getting/paying for... To say, well, it looks wobbly, but I can fix it in post/with more of your money, thats not always a viable option.

Just a thought. I agree the user needs control, and additional artifacts aren't any more of a viable option. But if this was integrated, it would make CMOS far more attractive to a wider range of customer. The biggest complaint I hear in preproduction against using lower end CMOS (DSLRs, EX-3, HPX-300) is the rolling shutter issue.
 
First i think you're overly enthusiastic over what this method can achieve. It only works ok for some situations and can mean disaster in others, with a range of more or less artifacts in-between. Second, manual control? You're kidding, right? :-)
 
Just wondering, anyone knows if there's a working Mac OS X version of AviSynth, or some similar frameserver that handles VirtualDub plugins?

I don't see anything in the blog that suggests one of their software to correct the wobble?
