    Awesome. Hows the hv20 for macro ?
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks
    I only have used it once and it seemed sharper than the HC3, but I wish it had the same type of macro mode as the HC3. Im looking to try it in AV mode at F8 for more DOF.

    Beautiful animals, and really well-done shots. It's great that you make beautiful the bugs we are surrounded by all day and usually think nothing of.
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks ,

    Some of these bugs are only a few millimeters and Im addicted to to see the details.

    Macro is a whole other world. Trippy. Nice cuts.
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks
  •  
  • blake williams plus 2 years ago
    very, very nice. seems like the editing could be a bit tighter though. maybe about two minutes long instead of five? still, man. there was so much great stuff in there.
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks Blake

    It was hard to edit because it was some of my fav's from about 7 episodes that were 2-5 minutes each. It's sort of a best of so I figured a little longer wouldn't hurt . If people watch the whole thing that's awesome.

    The rest I'm trying to keep shot and sweet . Thanks for the suggestion.

    Where on earth does one go to find such creatures? This kind of video can open a lot of doors!
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    99% was shot in my back yard or my in-law's back yard. Most of the bugs are micro and you really have to look to see them.
  •  
  • Wendell Marshall 2 years ago
    I guess that means Orange County, California... no critters like that in my back-yard... thanks for the close-up.

    Woderful macro clips. How did you ever get so close to the jumping spider?
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    It took forever to creep up on him crawling on my belly
  •  
  • hvimeo 2 years ago
    do you know where i can get sound fx, theme bakground song?
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    I think it is the Sin City movie theme song.
  •  
  • Madhatter 2 years ago
    wow, creepy and awesome!
    i especially loved the shot of the extreme close up of the spider and you could see you in the reflection of his eyes, it looked very intimidating for the spider lol
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks
  •  
  • Mark Jensen plus 2 years ago
    all i can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!! i have the same camera. you're not using any special lenses for this right? just the built-in macro? i gotta try it now :)

    amazing! did i say wow? :)

    you should SO get the HD version of this on vimeo. i would love to see it in HD.
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Thanks,

    This was shot mostly with my HDR-HC3 with either a reversed 50mm slr lens or through my 180mm slr macro lens. There is a picture of it in my profile pictures.
  • Mark Jensen plus 2 years ago
    WOW! now that's a macro lens! i gotta get one for my HC3 now :)
  •  
  • Timegates plus 2 years ago
    Lucas,

    I gotta say, this must be the coolest macro shots I've seen. The one where you can see your reflection in the spider's eyes as well as the grasshopper's eye texture is absolutely incredible! Excellent job, man!

    Here's my 1st trial at the macro world:
