Raising Hope S04 1080

Acargo ship docked at the International Space Station (ISS) fired its engine Wednesday,raising the space research platform into a higher orbit to prepare for thearrival of two spacecraft in upcoming months.
Duringthe reboost maneuver, ISS Expedition 11 flightengineer John Phillips positioned video cameras to observe the station's solarpanel arrays and other external components to monitor if they bend and flex inresponse to the motion. Phillips and Expedition 11 commander Sergei Krikalev have lived aboardthe ISS since their arrivalon April 17. They are currently serving a six-month mission aboard the station,which they hope will see the arrival of both the Discovery shuttle and itsfollow-up flight STS-121 aboard the Atlantis orbiter. ISS officials also planto launch European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Reiter to join the ISS crewduring the STS-121 mission.
The Google Nexus 6 can capture 720p, 1080p Full-HD or 4K video clips. The resolution can be selected in the settings menu. Once in video mode the user interface is very simplistic, offering only minimal user control. You can overlay a framing grid on the live view image, turn on the video light or switch to the front camera for capturing a video selfie. Still images with a 16:9 aspect ratio can be captured during video recording by tapping anywhere on the live image.
Footage that has been captured in the Nexus 6's 4K video mode shows noticeably more detail than the 1080p clips and is equally smooth and well stabilized. However, in low-contrast areas of the frame, such as the trees in the background of this scene, strong blurring of detail and compression are visible.
I very much agree everything you posted on the HDR mode. The HDR mode spits out awesome images that my point and shoot cameras rarely do. The color, contrast, highlight priority, and DR is awesome from this mode.
I hope you could do more review on the HDR mode on its speed, dynamic range, and noise that I could compare it to my Nexus5.
