what Camera and lens did you use to shoot this with? Loving the macro goodness!!
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

@PSN CREATIVE The good ole 5d MkII with the 100mm (non-L) Macro is a killer combo. This lens is the only non-L lens I own that produces L-quality images every time. It's my most recommended lens.

Thanks, and I enjoyed your syphon video, too. Good stuff.
Thompson Owen 1 year ago

my favorite combo as well. the 100 mm 2.8 macro is an awesome lens and won't absolutely kill the budget. amazing results. thanks again-tom
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

Thanks, Tom. Glad you like it.

Just heard your interview on The Splendid Table, last week. Very nice. Great explanation.

Love this video and am dying to buy a syphon coffee maker.
ilia djondric 1 year ago

great short. loving that macro, gonna have to get it. is the sound straight from the camera or done externally? 24p? any grading? thanks.
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

@sean smith, thanks, and yeah - go get a syphon, and some good fresh coffee. :)

@ilia djondric Good call on the 24! I wanted it to look as "filmy" as possible. And, no on the grading. Straight out of the camera. You won't regret the 100mm 2.8. As tack sharp as any L I've ever used.

very nicely done.

Jacob, NICE WORK!! Absolutely beautiful, and so much information hidden in each shot. nice nice nice.
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

It was surprising to us, throughout, how much info there was that we'd never seen. We kept stumbling upon new stuff. Lots of fun.

Thanks @don reid and @david lamont. Glad you liked it.

awesome stuff! Reminds me to use my 5d more.
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

Thanks, Dan. The 5d is a quite capable machine. I have to say, I drool over the 60p on the other Canons, though. :)

Really fantastic video, I did something like this with a french press and again with an espresso machine a little while ago, (same setup, except I used the L version) and was thinking about doing the same with a syphon, only now I don't need to! Keep it up!
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

I'd love to see that french press video.
Thanks for the encouragement.

Great Video Jacob, just beginning to use a Clever Coffee Dripper, this looks so much cooler though!!!! Will have to try it out!
Jacob Forrest 1 year ago

The clever can make a great cup of coffee. They're not too popular (yet?), so it's cool to hear of someone using one.

Let me know if you shoot some video of it.
GreenPeas Productions 1 year ago

We'll do, I have told my good friend Paul Yates if he helped set it up... I'd shoot it! It must be an artistic statement though; but also something that'll give some good insight to first time clever users.
