I always wonder if I would make the right decision to switch to video at a time like that.


With 4K and shutter speeds above "normal for video" you can pull acceptable stills. We are moving to 8K and that will be even more interesting for "hybrid" shooting.

At which point, my 12GB drive for photos won't be enough!!!!! We'll all need disk farms or huge accounts on the Web!!!! But you're right about being able to pull stills from video ... I just never bothered going that route ... guess I'm comfortable shooting stills ... but as the technology improves, you're right ... I may just change along with it.

A 12GB drive for photo storage? We count drive space in TBs, not GB now. There are lots of external USB multi TB drives under $100. It is not hard to get a single TB under $50.

You're right ... he did lose, although not as much as he would have lost if that eagle had gotten him back near the nest where the mate might have pitched in & had both the fox & rabbit for lunch!!!!!
