Dovnsklint - A moraine clay cliff...
8 months ago
Dovnsklint is the name of the moraine clay cliff at Langeland's southern tip. Langeland is one of many smaller islands just south of my home island of Fyn, Denmark.
This was shot on April 13th, 2009. I had borrowed a car from work, so I decided to take advantage of that. The 87km (54 miles) would take me quite a bit of time on my bicycle :)
I spent about 3 and a half hours down there but setting up / moving my gear is a slow process, so I didn't get to film any of the other local sites that I had in mind. Unfortunately, my gear - though heavy - is still a bit wobbely. The heavy slider makes my tiny tripod soft in the knees.

Especially in the wood, the effect is awesome. Beautiful moving pictures, fantastic quality and of course, as always, the music is perfect.
Beautiful work man.
Jeg bruger både 'unsharp mask' og 'sharpness' (samtidig) i Sony Vegas. Det vigtigste er naturligvis at have korrekt fokus på adapteren og at objektivet er fokuseret korrekt (hvilket er meget svært at se på den lille LCD-skærm). Mængden af unsharp mask og sharpness skal man lege lidt med. Klip med bevægelse og mange detaljer, kan ikke klare så meget som f.eks. intro-klippet i denne film.
Filtrene: cokin.com/ico3-p1-2.html bruges til at gøre himlen mørkere i forhold til jorden, så du ikke bare får en 'hvid' / overeksponeret himmel. Disse filtre er 'neutrale', altså uden farve. De kan også fås i farvede udgaver, så himlen både bliver mørkere og farvet - eksempelvis et orange filter til en solnedgang.
Du vil opdage at 121F har 'effekt' i hele filteret mens 121M kun har effekt i den øverste halvdel. Det sidste er specielt godt, hvis du har en klar skillelinie mellem jord og himmel. Jeg brugte begge to samtidigt, hvilket har gjort at klinten er lidt mørk i de klip hvor der er himmel og klint i samme 'højde-niveau'.
Håber det giver mening :)

Loved it very much. Fantastic work as always!! Very beautiful!

I use the Cokin P filter system - a cheap alternative to Tiffen and other systems.

I used a 121M and 121F filter (at the same time) on most of these clips. The filters are fairly cheap and I own quite a few of them.
The holder / system looks like this:

No tilt/shift or Lensbaby used here (actually just sold my Lensbaby 2.0 today - didn't really use it much). The Letus adapter and lenses / ND filters is doing most of it. Contrast and some warm colors added in post with Magic Bullet Looks.
This location was the first of 200+ that will someday become a full length feature film (I think) with some of my most favorite locations in Denmark: pixelviking.com/blog/2009/2/20/denmark-the-movie.html
videographer, congratulations
Your gear and the filters made a great difference.
Thanks for the advice.
You've a great sense of filmmaking
Fabulous
Great landscapes......nice colours.

Rolling shutter aka 'the jello effect' is really only a problem if you throw your CMOS camcorder around or film at an event with flash photography / strobe lighting.
The Z5 can be used tapelessly with an accessory and that's what I had in mind. However, adding the accessory puts the Z5 at USD 5.000, so I've decided to just go nuts and get the PMW-EX1 (USD 6.100). It's still CMOS technology but I prefer the advantages of CMOS over CCD and am prepared to live with the disadvantages...
The EX1 should be enough of a challenge for me to get to grips with and after all learning is half the fun :P
I might be 'out of commission' for a few months, as I start selling my current video / photo equipment...

If that doesn't blow your mind, I don't know what will :D
P.S. I am seeing the HG10 for $400 (refurbished, but a rather trusted merchant) and thinking about buying one ;-) Really, this is the only tapeless HD camcorder with 24p and the largest sensor and the best sensitivity. The HF-S has a tad larger sensor, but much worse sensitivity.
P.P.S. Have you thought about the upcoming Panasonic HMC40? Only $2k, but a quite small sensor.
I did research the HMC models as well but really want something that will allow me to do everything manually and something that has enough features to keep me busy for a while... :)
The HF-S does 24mbps and should have a better image but is obviously more expensive.
