I really liked this. There's a naturalness to it that sold the tension really well for me, and the ending, holy shit! I knew it took a turn but I didn't expect anything of that severity.
One of my 4K Vinegar Syndrome purchases, and this is a really great looking film. Detail isn't any better than 1080p, but the colour saturation and general tonalities on offer are exquisite. |

In this 4k world, 1080p is just on the edge. It must have some damn good saturation and color palette work to keep the eyes pleased. |

Vinegar Syndrome is an independent publisher that specialises in oddball, cult and trashy films. They do really nice restorations, and they have a bunch of other little labels for sale on their site. I usually wait for a sale and load up once a year. |

It must have some damn good saturation and color palette work to keep the eyes pleased. 1080p is more than fine in terms of resolution as most films until recently were mastered at 2K, but if you have a TV with wide colour gamut, then 4K HDR actually makes a real difference in terms of shadow and highlight detail and colour pop. Summer or 84 is a pretty decent looking film, but when police lights flash or the chrome of a BMX is reflecting sunlight it's really kind of amazing. |

It makes things a lot easier when rendering things to different specs. When I say 1080p is on the edge, I mean that it 720p is not HD so rendering something from 1080p is on the edge for me. It doesn't give me a lot of room to maneuver. |

It doesn't give me a lot of room to maneuver. My girlfriend is a videographer and was using 1080p gear for years until she upgraded recently to 4K and the difference for her has been immense. Everything still rendered to 1080p for her clients because it's more than enough, but a 4K pipeline has, as you say, so much headroom. Stabilisation in post has been a miraculous improvement for her as she can shoot from the hip without lugging a gimbal or similar and really, the quality isn't affected at all. She was all Canon and very loyal but is now using a Sony mirrorless and the sharpness improvement is staggering. |

Guilty as charged right here. I have some other cheap 4k cameras for indoor stuff that needs three cameras, but those things (and I can barely remember the brand name on a good day, oh, it is becoming a better day--Olympus) are not equipped for all seasons all weather all everything photography or filming. I like Canon lenses. A lot. I just use them on a Sony Mirrorless cameras instead now. |
