CAI / C2PA Content Credentials First Cameras: Leica M11-P (and Sony A9 III, too)

Content Authenticity Initiative / Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity credentials are meant to fight disinformation and fake news by proving that your pictures are real. The Leica M11-P is the first camera on the market to feature C2PA signing. (Soon to be followed by the Sony Alpha 9 III and Nikon Z9H, we are told.)

In this video, we look at what this all means from the photographer's point of view.

This video is a companion to my blog post on the subject, at https://www.carlseibert.com/first-cam...

Unfortunately, YouTube doesn't let creators edit a posted video. That means that as I become aware of mistakes, the only way to update the video is to post a new one. I'll do that when I amass a sufficient pile or errors to make it worthwhile. In the meantime, I'll just put corrections in a pinned comment. I will update the blog post, of course. Look in the comments for the latest.
