Nikola,
Beautiful images - thanks for sharing!

Fred,
Great commentary - thank you.

Tom B,
I'm glad that was your 'last' post on the subject.

Uber short turnaround, guerilla style shoot... (1 hour per location tops, 5 locations in one afternoon).
Front of book product shot ("tactical" backpacks - hence the gritty location) - just hit newsstands. Glad they picked my favorite of the set. Just the image, no prices/book content provided here.

On Location shooting right now... just pulled this out of the Epic... digging this camera more and more.

Chris, That is impressive! Are you able to put a PC lens on this camera? Jim

Nice one, especially considering the limited time. Really like the choice of background.

David - thanks! Yeah, the short timeframe (and lack of stylist) made things interesting. Looking back over the shoot now, I see a dozen things in each image I would love to change - but ultimately, it met the clients needs. They were happy, and it looks good in print.

Chris - that looks good coming from the Epic. How is it to work with?

Almost, Jim. I'm anxiously awaiting my Canon mount adapter. Once that arrives I'll probably order the new Schneider Tilt/Shifts to round out my 17 and 24.

The only drag about the Epic is there is no tethered workflow. What is awesome is that you can hook up an external monitor. I use a Flanders 17" (which is superior to my Eizo) and that gives you constant "Live view."

Chris, I hope you're creating some revenue with this, I see the monitor is $2700.00! I need to jump into the motion world, it seems inevitable that clients will expect both formats from us. By the way, another thread has some discussion of the Schneider T/S's, most reviews are pretty negative. Jim

Might as well throw up something recent, it's a 1960's vintage dragster that I shot for a local collector. The motor puts out somewhere in the neighborhood of 1800hp. I've shot 8 vehicles on this project, it's been really fun. I post more as I finish them. Jim

I like that one Jim...just the right touch of both the front and rear wheels to 'ground' that big honkin hemi.

Nice shot Jim, love the old dragster.

Jim, going to motion is gonna cost and yes is billable as long as you have something that they need, though be prepared to have everything change, from lights, to supports, asset management to workflow.

Chris, you can tether using a breakout box,

and running a high def signal through either bnc or hdmi to a tapeless recorder.

We had a dit station custom built that holds two macbookpros, battery backups, raid 5's and monitors.

The dit station is a monster, but it moves, has a stand, has flown around the world and is a godsend when it comes to saving and viewing data.

Something really different for me....

Was at client's plant shooting product and they had a video company doing green screen for a show video. I shot this hand held at iso 4000 from the rear of the set, man the lighting here was superb compared to the stuff they were shooting
