I only received my review unit of the DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine last night, but it didn’t stop me from catching some nice sunset clips to show you what all three lenses can capture. (Yes, “Mavic 3 Pro Cine” is a mouthful; this naming convention is getting out of hand!)

Some good news to end your week with. In an update to its readers, Digital Photography Review’s general manager Scott Everett confirms the site’s content will remain online after the site shuts down on April 10th.

Glad to see nearly 25 years of work not going to waste, but I’ll still miss checking DPReview scores for all the upcoming cameras.

Hi, readers and viewers! We’re experimenting with bringing you summarized video versions of our gadget reviews. Feel free to drop a comment and let us know what you think of this format.

First up, Monica’s review of the truly impressive (and pricey) Razer Blade 18.

As a video person myself, I absolutely love seeing screenshots of Adobe Premiere timelines from major movies. For one, it’s weirdly mesmerizing, and two... sometimes it makes me feel better about my own organized mess.

Here’s a short snippet where Paul Rogers, the editor of Everything Everywhere All At Once, talks about his workflow. (Also, be sure to check the replies to that tweet to see some other examples.)

I spent way too much time racing in Gran Turismo 3 as a kid. But none of the GT games that came out later captured my imagination in the same way. I think that’s about to change; the VR version of Gran Turismo 7 looks like everything I ever wanted from a racing game.

Take a look yourself:

I know many of you video editors have already switched to DaVinci, and I don’t blame you because Premiere is starting to show its age. However, the last update has an important new addition, applying automatic tone mapping to help edit HDR footage.

Premiere Pro automatically adjusts wide color gamuts to display accurately in your sequence without blown-out highlights. Tone mapping is enabled by default, so iPhone or HDR footage will display correctly.

I’ll let Tyler guide you through it.

1,610 miles driven. 130 miles ran. 9 miles hiked. 21 miles skied. Over 1TB of footage filmed across 9 different cameras, including four drones and three 360-degree cams.

And, approximately 300 coffees later... here’s our Apple Watch Ultra Review.

In her always entertaining and informative style, WSJ Senior Personal Technology Columnist and friend of The Verge Joanna Stern goes back to high school and tries to cheat her way through AP Literature with some help from ChatGPT.

Just remember, you cheated not only the game, but yourself, Joanna.

Every so often, there’s a video that our video team finishes just minutes before it has to go live. You export the final version, start the upload to YouTube, the “processing” icon appears… and then you wait.

And wait.

And wait.

Not knowing when it will be ready for your audience in that crispy 4K resolution.

Starting today, you won’t need to guess how much time is left. YouTube is going to let you know much time is left for processing different video quality levels.
