That was a great sequence. Really showed the power of the whales. The combination of the aerials and the uw fly-bys was awesome. For those interested, Michael Pitts, who was also one of the UW cameramen on Life is talking at BSoUP in London on Wednesday: http://www.bsoup.org/index.php Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex_Mustard 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I really liked the use of macro-wide angle in the insects episode. Showing the behaviour and also the settings. Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeanB 19 Posted November 17, 2009 I really liked the use of macro-wide angle in the insects episode. Showing the behaviour and also the settings. Alex It was amazing ... I spent a few days shooting Dragon/damselflies with the EX1 earlier this year and was really impressed with the results ... But their footage was amazing ( okay better cams) ... Super slow mo and, as Alex said, Wide-macro is the 'In' thing at the moment ... And Boy does it look awesome ... I need some 'diopters' and SOON !!! ...
