Coincidence that the same weekend we are watching the events unfold in CA (Canada) that the NFC Championship Game is being played in CA (California) by two California teams in the same stadium where the Super Bowl will be played two weeks from now? Will this be the Super Bowl that will be made to look "like a puppy party?" by the events/storm swirling around it?

Telephoto lenses run at higher F stop (exposure) which has a much longer depth of field. Shorter, wide angle lenses can run “faster” ie greater exposure. When you get into low f lenses <F1.8 the depth of field becomes very shallow. I think w the video I see from WH and in sports the unnatural depth of field. All that said, there are still a hundred other technical innovations and changes I’m sure I’m not aware of - stadium cameras w image stitching, 12K VR, all sorts of CGI tools. So I dunno…
Yep true. A lot has changed since my film days.
But we can agree it's definitely shallow depth of field... And other gimmicks
Unnaturally shallow
Yeah I think that's just because it's digital
All video starts out as optical before it is analog or digital. The depth of field is determined by the lens (optical). Any changes in depth of field behind the lens would have to be done with digital processing. It isn't a byproduct of a digital signal.
