Black & White: A Video Portrait

Well, I had the privilege of receiving a Jag35 SP adapter to shoot some test video before they release it at NAB later in the month. I decided to see what it could go in low light considering this is usually where the DOF adapters tend to lack in performance. I was amazed at how well the adapter did. I used my little sister and her bedroom, because background wise it is a great setting and She has wonderful style that would make for an interesting shoot. It has been a while since I have shot with the Canon HV20 since I have got my 7D but I still love the film look these cameras produce. I will definitely be using it on shoots alongside the DSLR. Below is a list of equipment used.

6 Hour Endurance Race @ Glen Helen 2010

Decided to take the camera out and really run it through the paces last sunday with my buddy Dave (Offset Photography) and his fiance Kelly. We had a few friends running the race so we figured it would be a good way to get back into the groove for the season of offroad events to come. I have not gotten the chance to try slow motion with this camera yet so I figured this would be a good time. I learned a lot from the 4 or so hours of shooting and I am amazed at the possibilities of this camera. There is less room for mistakes but the images are amazing. Anyway, enjoy this short and here is a rundown of what I used that day.
