Some cool stuff here. We've been shooting with RED Epic for a while now, and the extended dynamic range of the HDR-X mode is really nice. It's about 18 stops of dynamic range. I can pull almost anything out of high contrast scenes in post-production - we don't have to wait for the magic hour anymore and can generally wave goodbye to blown out skies. Check out londonhelicam.co.uk - there are a couple of HDR video examples in the reel.
I wonder if this Tegra 4 chip will have enough horsepower encode the extended dynamic range of the HDR video into a usable 16bit/32bit video format, at good quality bitrates. What codec would it use? h.265?
Sony has the best dynamic range in consumer sensors, hope there will be some products combining this into a truly usable and user configurable product - either in a phone or a consumer camera.
