    I just realized that my dreams where I'm surfing alternate between this angle and a POV shot...But then, I would've made it out of Taj's barrel, turned into a dolphin, and found the shark amazingly insightful in our ensuing discussion on the economic policies of clownfish.

    Sick Vid Riley...
    Curious to know what rig you had in the chopper to keep it steady (if any) or is some of that done in post...
  • Riley Blakeway plus 3 months ago
    Just hand held with the Sony PMW EX1 - Hanging out by the seatbelt.
  •  
  • Darren McCagh plus 3 months ago
    Thanks mate...It's Bloody smooth...Had a crack with 7D for some kitesurfing in Fiji...Found it really depended on the movement of the copter whether it was smooth or shaken to shit...7D's Probably not the best camera to use in that situation anyway.

    Truly amazing. So simple, and pure but powerful at the same time. The ocean and waves were the real star. Great to see what can be done without a Red one or higher. Also so smooth for hand held. Five stars!
