Tomi 40 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Hey guys! I remember reading that the Applause was taken by a special camera where you make a video, then pick a screen capture and it will be UQH picture. do you know what I'm talking about? I want to know the name of the camera and learn more about it. I hope I posted it in the right place. thank you :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they just grabbed a nice camera and took some snapshots. Doesn't necessarily have to be a screenshot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackhouse 3 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 wasn't it called a Red Camera? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbather 0 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I don't know what camera was used to film Applause but it could have been a Red if I had to guess. Needless to say, video stills in general are almost always great enough to pass off as great stand alone images, even with iPhone video recorders.

calmar 22,037 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 It's a video still from a red dragon camera, which is known for that particular capability. Gaga can afford to bring them in. 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc1993 1 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 because the video was shot on film (tho obv would work with digital footage too) the image is perfect quality and it's from a part of the video where she's still enough for a few seconds for it to be a sharp image. This is before Youtube compression remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
