This falls in the holy shit category. I can almost see Photoshop doing this in a year or two - within Photoshop. The HDR and stabilizer part falls in the ‘fucking insane’ category.
Imagine my Panasonic GS-180 and Canon Rebel Xti producing hi-res videos with this system. Ooooh! [via CrunchGear]

Had just finished watching The Dark Knight down at 34th and 8th Ave. Decided to take a walk over to TSquare and then to Bombay Express. Had the N95 on me, which I’d used the night before.
I should have noted the band’s name. I’ll try and find out when I’m there again.
Happy Weekend!!
From Torrey Meeks, who edited the famous O’Reilly meltdown remix.
The ‘everyone except me knew this’ tutorial on how to convert your cellphone and point n’ shoot video files, and edit them on any video editing software, whether it’s FCP, Adobe Premiere, or the free iMovie and Windows Movie Maker.
The reason I only mention N95 and Cybershot is because those are the only devices I’ve shot video with besides a camcorder that shoots DV. Nokia N95 saves as .mp4 format while Sony Cybershot saves as .MPG. Final Cut or iMovie can’t edit compressed audio embedded in those formats. Not sure if that has changed with FCP 6 or Adobe CS3.
The solution is simpler than anything. Download the free MPEG Streamclip (Mac/Win). Since discovering this converter, I’ve used nothing else for encoding video files. I have Apple Compressor but I don’t use it.
I just drag and drop the file(s) on the icon and select, since I edit on FCP, ‘Apple DV/DVC Pro NTSC’ option from the dropdown menu. You can choose from tons of other options to output to the format your video editing software ‘talks’ to.
I even use MPEG Streamclip to convert finalized Quicktime files for upload on video sharing sites. Like the unboxing video where I’ve used both N95 and Cybershot footages.
Hover cursor over to timeline’s ruler. When you scroll ball left to right tracks scroll back and forth - playhead stays put. Scroll ball up and down and it only moves the playhead back and forth. Sweet!
What you see in video: 1) Click on ruler: playhead jumps where clicked 2) Scroll ball left to right and 3) Scroll ball up and down.
Screen recording with Jing Project. In my opinion, the best free screen recorder. And you get free uploads of your captures on Screencast.
