The dying CCD sensor on this P32 is pure magic :)

The dying CCD sensor on this P32 is pure magic :)
Shot entirely with the Sony Cyber-shot P32. The format is MPEG Movie VX, an early form of (very) compressed digital video. It pretends to be 25 frames per second, but isn't -- as you can plainly see from the video.
Stills are in 3.2 megapixels. This particular digicam has a deteriorating CCD, which explains the blown highlights. It has a charm of its own, though.
I've always played on PS4 and PS5, but recently decided to check out the PS3 port. Whoa. I can't believe how well it looks and runs on PS3.
If I played this version in 2014 I'd have been totally fine with it -- even if it doesn't always hit 30 fps.
These two were orphans that found each other. They both had injured tails, and loved to frolic on the trees, chasing and rolling and almost falling. Their short lives didn't mean they didn't find love, and we are all the better for it.
The original sound was just a bunch of wind noise, so I added some music to the footage. The video was shot in July 2021 just as the pandemic was starting to wind down. One of these squirrels would die by the end of the month, hit by a car. The other one got super depressed and eventually stopped showing up. Still, the happiness we see here inspired me for years.
Shot this at the standard 59.94 frames per second, interlaced. Deinterlaced and edited on a 1080p/30 timeline.
Slowing the footage down by 50% resulted in silky-smooth slow motion :)
Obvious, I know. But it works well! Look at that crow dive off the power line.
Love this little guy. If only EIS was better on it :)
Split/Second is the greatest flop ever made -- a game so good, so insanely fun that knowing it killed Black Rock Studios makes no sense whatsoever.
It's a 9 out of 10 racing game with visuals unmatched on 7th-gen consoles. Upscale it to 1440p or 4K and it looks almost like a brand-new title.
Time Extension did a much-deserved deep dive on this legendary arcade racing game. Lots of detail if you're into this sort of thing!
Have you guys seen the trailer? All the handheld video stuff looks terrible.
Edit: KANE Parsons! I'll get you autocorrect.
