BTW I did my own tests last week in a GAF thread (I think I was the only to show real results).

Pictures

Internal: 200-400k JPEG
After upload to Twitter: 50-100k JPEG

Sto the twitter did a hell of compression over the original PS4 picture you see on PS4 but the PS4 picture is not good enought yet... needs some lossless PNG option (2-4MB pictures).

We needs more sharing services too.

Video

Internal: 8 Mbps (1MB/s) bitrate
After upload to Facebook: I can't check but the video on PS4 plays with way better quality than Facebook (Facebook again did a hell of compression over the original)

8Mbps bitrate is not bad.. it is half of most Blu-ray movies quality but the lack of options to share and the heavly compression of Facebook is killing the video on web... I don't expect YouTube to solve that because it have low quality videos too like Facebook.

We need some high-definition sharing service or the hability to export the videos to PC (already planeed to future update).

Sony needs to give us options to record 1080p and 60fps videos too.

 

So far it is a good start... needs to improve.

I get 650kb jpg pictures from AC4. You can send them to a PS Vita as a mail attachment, maybe you can save the original via that route?A friend just bought a Vita and I send him some screenshots, forgot to ask him if he can save them.

8 mbps real time encoded is not half blu-ray lol. Blu-ray runs at 24 mbps average, upto 40 mbps in heavy action scenes, multi pass encoded for best results. My HD video camera records in 24mbps, looks good, but blu-ray still looks a lot better.

The highest quality HD you tube video I've seen is 5.6mbps (Download via ps3youtube and you can see the average bitrate) I'm assuming they use multi pass encoding and variable bitrates so that should be good enough for an 8mbps real time encoded stream. Ofcourse I've also seen 1.5mbps encoded 1080p Youtube videos, quality varies a lot. Plus Youtube usually downgrades my videos to 720p, even though I upload in 10mbps 1080p.

It would be a great start if they allow you to copy the picture and video files to a thumbstick.
