Powder Mountain Perspective
9 months ago
This little video was shot at Powder Mountain, a ski area in northern Utah. Pow mow flies below the radar as far as utah resorts are concerned, which is fine by me! This place is all about getting your pow turn on with your buddies, all day.
Shot on a 5DmkII, handheld, with a 15mm fisheye. Tried to capture the feeling of shredding a resort on a typical utah pow day.

We've added this to the 5D wiki at planet5d.com We've got more 5D reviews/still/video samples than anywhere else on the planet.
I am not young or cool enough to use such terms but it seems appropriate in this case. Respect!
Even for a fisheye it looks remarkably smooth, did you have anything to support or protect the camera?
the camera is in a nylon bag, sometimes the lens gets blasted with snow though.
Made me feel a bit foolish about panicking over the odd bit traditional British sleet hitting the camera last weekend :)
Sad Texas guy here. Never even been skiing.. much less something like this. Loved watching it though.
5D2 is a killer tool...that is for sure.
What is the track if you down't mind me asking.
Do. Not. Come.
That is all.

Sounds a lot like Al Green, "Love and Happiness." Althought, Al Green might have gotten his hit from Perry.

well, maybe it's a professional secret.
awesome artistry with this video btw... keeps drawing me back.

Except it costs like 3k for the most basic (without a lens)
Great work with a great instrument
Thanks!
Now come to the northeast and do one on ice.
I'm jealous
I want to go back, though it's unlikely I'll hit powmow again til next season.
any chance we could embed the HD version?
blogd it, hope thats cool: jonrawlinson.com/2009/02/powder-mountain-perspective/

You can feel the speed & it looks a lot like Stanley Kubrik made it.
I'm adding this to the Xtreme sports group right now.
PS: Right now I want some POW POW :)
Any chance you can take a picture of the canvas bag setup w/monogrip? I would love to see how you did this.
Im sitting at the door waiting for the UPS guy with my 5dmkII. Sweet baby jebus, finally.
You captured the feeling very well. I've never been skiing or snowboarding, so this really shows what it's like for the people who've never experienced it.

i've always wanted to try something like this, but i keep panicking about the camera... i guess i'll have to try it anyways
that looooks cool, what kind off camera/lens did you use?
I have een hd1000, wandering if I shoud buy an 26mm conferter an fish eye or non becaus it sucks...

Loved the camera angles, it's always amazing to have a moving mounted camera on a person.. wouldn't risk it myself though!
Surprisingly steady for holding it with your hand and pointing it at yourself. The fisheye helps a little too.
i was at Solitude on tuesday. Epic! I also hit a stump and punched a one inch hole in my shin. A bloody mess, but after 4 stitches, 40 mins and $20 later back out turning it up.
i need to hit up powder m.
Glad to hear in a Pow Vid!
Cheers!
