Ashland Sunset - Letus Extreme Film - Sony EX1
4 months ago
My first film with the Sony PMW-EX1 XDCAM EX camcorder. I have the Letus35 Extreme film lens adapter mounted on the front so that I can use my 35mm SLR prime lenses.
This video was shot at Ashland State Park in Ashland, Massachusetts this afternoon. I shot everything except for the time lapse at the end in 720p 60 frames per second. This faster frame rate gives me more flexibility in super slow motion.
I used a 50mm Nikon f1.4 prime for all the shots until the very end. The very last shot of the film was through my Vivitar 200mm f3.5 telephoto prime lens. I also zoomed the EX1 all the way in to get the tight shot of the sun as it dropped below the trees.
The time lapse at the end was shot in 720p using frame interval recording. I set the camera to take 2 frames of video for every second that went by.
I hope you enjoy this, I look forward to doing much more with the excellent camera. I edited this in Final Cut Pro and color graded with Magic Bullet Looks.

honestly, I wanted it to be twice as long. Hold the same shots twice as long. I was unable to take in their beauty in the time you gave them. Filming water is my favourite thing. It's hypnotic.
One tip, unless it was what you were after, to avoid the star effect on the first timelapse sun shot is shoot with nd2. What I also do to avoid the fast water in the timelapse is to shoot with slow shutter 16 or even better 32, with the same settings for interval. Using the frame accumulation it blurs the water and the trees so they don't move so rapidly but the sun still descends the same way. Be careful with slow shutter as it's easy to get focus wrong with it!
Well done though. I will def steal that falling water idea! Next one please Tom!
its cool you are enjoying my videos. thanks for the suggestions. i will think of another short to shoot this week.
