Cinematographer Phil Holland not all that long ago took delivery of the first Shootover K1 Hammerhead 6-axis gyro stabilized gimbal which allows for multiple cameras to be lined up and used in a panor... New York City flyover was filmed in 12K
"Selects 8k in youtube , i have a i5 8600k @ 4.8ghz it's fine" dam it , should have gone for the 2700x D:
And here am I watching it in 1080p... It's great to have new tech and stuff being recorded in detail, but it's bad the tech for consumers is catching up slowly (price wise at least). My i5 2500k can render 4k no problem, but 8k forget it
You got that right. I can watch 4K on YouTube but is very taxing on my internet connection since I have a mere 25 Mbps connection. I haven't tried rendering videos beyond 720p 60 or even 1080p 60 for that matter because it would take forever to upload to YouTube with my crappy upload speed of 1.5 Mbps. I don't go beyond 1080p because of my Internet connection.
If you're patient, you could always get one of those browser plugins that downloads the whole video straight to your PC, and then watch it in whatever media player you use when it's done. That way you get the highest quality you want, buffer-free. If you download a bunch of videos all at once, you can then cram them all into a single playlist and just sit back and relax. As for uploading, why not just leave your PC on overnight to upload while you sleep?
My potato work computer (i5-6300U) started crying for help when I hovered the mouse pointer over 8K so I'll try at home on my 6700K instead which should do 4K just fine, but I guess I can completely forget about 8K.
4790k @ 4.7ghz here and can play stutter free 8k videos although i understand they are scaled down to my 1080p res anyway
Video should play with no sweat if you have hardware acceleration activated in your broswer, i watched the clip at 8k max with the GPU usage being at 50% on 270 Mhz GPU frequency (you read that right !, my old kepler GPU didnt even sweat to go full 1.25 GHz on this video). On the other hand if you have the feature disabled (hardware acceleration) your CPU will struggle a bit.
Watching this in 8k on my IPS 21:9 is holy crap. I know its downscaled to 1080p, but holy god it looks 100X better then it does on my 1080p TV using my server in 8k.
Anyone got a 12k rez monitor to watch this on... lol you know what would make this better? if it was at 60fps! 30fps is so 2 million years ago.
