Doug Mills used the Sony A1 and 24 mm f/1.4 GM to take the famous “bullet” image of Tump!

[@sidvicious3129]

Andreas, I loved your take on this and that you kept it strictly about photography!!!

[@theflyingdutchman7127]

and we all rush to the camera store and buy a Sony A1😂

[@Endowpictures]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@LucasBlaney]

You're late

[@Kbkbkbkb4]

Yeah if you have $6000 for the body only

[@Zimmy123]

I think the A9 (1st gen) can also do this. 🙂

[@HagaishiSama]

The Sony A1 auto focus is godlike!!! Great video as well!!

[@levicochrane]

Why was the ISO not listed in the metadata?

[@FlatEarthShelley]

Was wondering the same

[@judem429]

Yes! Yes! Yes! I thought, My A1 could do that. Love my big guy.

[@reynaldohernandez1425]

The was another photographer next to the Sony user but he was using canon. There’s another clip when they go to the front of the podium and you can see clearly the other one used an RF mount camera.

The other famous photo of Trump raising his fist was taken with a Sony A9iii.

@4:30 I feel like there was a golden period where the internet was a source for truth. Google & Amazon did not own most of the servers; we had much more independent hosting...

[@andrewlutes2048]

Thanks for digging around and finding that image data Andrea!

[@Biosynchro]

I am surprised that we haven't yet seem the line between photo and video completely disappear, at least for the press and PJs. I suspect that some PJs use video mode exclusively, and extract frames later. This will be the next evolution in photography IMHO.

[@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112]

Not only PJs but ordinary people too. For example on the Lumix S5 II I shoot almost everything in 6K Open Gate (24 Mpixel) with a high shutter speed to avoid motion blur to support later framegrabbing. The framegrabs are of excellent quality and are far better than anything an ordinary smartphone (NOT using computational RAWs) can produce.

[@Biosynchro]

@@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 Ah, so you have already understood this. A lot of people see this great technology, and don't use it. What a waste!

[@jettubby17]

The truth is very elusive. 😁 thanks Andrea

[@warrenkee8675]

Why was a guy shooting at 1/8000 of a second for stationary people

[@JaredDoyle76]

Because it was at f/1.6 in broad daylight.

[@schultzeworks]

Did that answer your question adequately? He was a total pro. He had an excellent camera. He was insanely lucky. Welcome to reality 😀

[@DandoPorsaco-ho1zs]

The bullet of the alleged weapon used go at about 990 m/s. In video, at 30 fps, the bullet would travel 33 m in a single frame, and at 120 fps, 8.25 m. For pictures, assuming the trail of the bullet in the picture is about 40 cm, the shutter speed would have to be about 1/2475th of a second.

[@cbflazaro]

the shutter was 1/8000 which would imply 4km/s

[@Skipsul]

Thanks for the look at this. Very fascinating.

[@borisalexanderknop4916]

Thx so much Andrea for your commitment, depth and true opinion! This is much more than camera rumours. I pretty much enjoy this Content. Thank you

[@sgpork]

awesome... so we dont need 24GM ii..

[@Riskbreaker2009]

A1II in 2025?

Scrivo in italiano che faccio prima. I 4 fotografi che erano nella buca attorno al palco: Evan Vucci di Associated Press con una Sony A9 mk3, l’autore della foto iconica di Trump con dietro la bandiera stelle e strisce, probabile vincitore del Pultizer; Doug Mills del New York Times, quello della scia della pallottola scattata con la Sony A1 a 1/8000 a raffica di 30 ftg/s, altro probabile vincitore Pultizer; Anna Monymaker di Getty Associated l’autrice di Trump accovacciato sanguinante e attorniato da agenti del Secret Service scattata con un Canon; e infine Javin Botsford del Washington Post dell’altra foto di Trump attorniato dagli agenti in discesa dalla scaletta del palco; scattata con la Sony A1. Le foto delle Sony sono state inviate in tempo reale alle redazioni tramite il dispositivo PDT-FP1, nonostante le comunicazioni erano state bloccate da inizio comizio per motivi di sicurezza. La foto della scia del proiettile è stata scoperta dalla redazione del New York Times dopo aver visionato le centinaia di foto arrivate dal loro fotografo, ed è stata pubblicata cerchiando l’ impercettibile scia del proiettile visibile solo ad alti ingrandimenti.

[@cbflazaro]

a mobile phone able to do faster shutter speed, could had done similar photo,
