What is with that obsession with innovation? What's wrong with maturity? Too often I come across the comments of a "no innovation there, it's a crap" kind and I wonder where does this attitude come from.


Hardly. If the article was title "Captivating 4k images of cites at night" it wouldn't have garnered any HN traction. The implication here was that either 4k or the image stabilisation was note-worthy from a technological point of view. 4k is new/hot-ish (the low-light sensitivity is quite impressive in these shots), but those stabilisation rigs have been around for decades. At first I though someone may have put a Red onto a drone .. (someone still can!)


People come here for news about unexpected change. Maturity is great but predictable, and will be reported in other channels.
