Florian Andrei pointed me to a paper discussing a new approach to combining stills and video photography to get much better results. This leads to

• Higher resolution
• Higher dynamic range
• Enhanced exposure
• Easy removal/exchange of objects

Here is a video explaining the idea with examples

P.S. I do notice the irony that since my warning against posting on Vimeo I have only used Vimeo examples…

Found a great paper by Canon on lens theory, which also explains the common terminology used in lens construction. The paper also includes an extensive collection of graphs showing the optical resolution of all Canon lenses, both wide open and at F8.

Great resource if you have a Canon stills camera, or a Red One with the very soon forthcoming Birger mount (video link).
