The above video was captured with a Canon Rebel T2i (aka 550D), along with the nifty-fifty 50mm f/1.8, 18-55mm kit lens and Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 lens, and it was edited using Premiere Pro, After Effects and Twixtor.
The JVC GC-PX10 is officially slated for release this month in the US. The PX10 is very similar to the PX1 we saw earlier this year at CES 2011.
The GC-PX10 features a 12.75MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor and captures 1080/60p video at a 36Mbps sample rate. The 10x zoom lens covers an equivalent focal range of 43.3-433mm when shooting video and 37.4-374mm when shoots stills. [Read more…]
P+S TECHNIK’s new PS-Cam X35 is out. It’s a serious piece of cinema gear from Germany that shoots 1080p video at up to 450fps. [Read more…]
The JVC GC-PX10 is a follow-up for “select markets around the world” to the (Japan-only) GC-PX1 that was introduced at CES this year as a concept model. Aside from the still image resolution (12MP vs. 10MP), the specifications, body and controls of the new GC-PX10 appear to the same as the GC-PX1. [Read more…]
I’ve been trying out the Nikon Coolpix P500 for a couple of weeks or so now. Similar to its predecessor, the P100, the Nikon P500 captures VGA-quality video at 120fps and QVGA-quality at 240fps. While both are fun, I find the 120fps at VGA’s 640 x 480 resolution much more practical for sharing on TV sets or online.
Below is a short sample of some clips I shot at both frame rates. Note that the 240fps footage has been up-rezzed in post from its native 320 x 240 resolution to standard VGA 640 x 480 resolution in order to match the 120fps frame size.
Check it out below. [Read more…]
Eric Kessler let Philip Bloom take his new RED EPIC for a spin and also volunteered to be a test subject while members of the Kessler Crane crew threw glasses of water at him. The result a rather entertaining slow motion mashup of Kessler’s abuse.
Check out the full rundown of the operation over at Philip Bloom’s site.
