NEW Letus35Flip footage ! (take a look)

It was more of a podcast, but pretty similar to a interview setup.

It was very windy and some what noisy, but coming into it I knew it would be that
way. I ran shotgun mic off a boom pole pretty close to him and obviously put
a wireless lav mic on him.

between the two I used the wireless mic audio more than the boom, but both proved helpful.

I also wanted until 6:15 so I could shoot in the shadow of the buildings, but obviously
your fighting the sun going down when you do that, but all I needed was a couple
hours.
 
Thanks for the feedback.

If you post it publicly, I would love to see it with sound cut into a complete piece.

Thanks!
 
Great footage. Out of focus though. It was probably your back focus more or less. Also having a follow focus is the sweetest thing ever. Say for instance your are doing every thing handheld on a rig it is much easier to pull focus with your hand not having to be on the camera itself. It is so convenient! Try it, you won't want to go back to normal!
 
I've used a follow focus many times, I ran focus for a film.
I think what your seeing that feels out of focus is maybe the compression. except
the 3rd shot is a little out of focus, but I do agree with you having a good Follow Focus is a great asset.
 
Just wanted to let everyone know that the maker of the indi-Rails saw this post
and contacted me personaly and explained I have the older version and he is
sending me the new verison. He's confident that I will be happy with the newer version, so keep that in mind.

I'll let you how I like them
 
much better salt...

much better salt...

wow, these images look amazing. please let me know when these podcasts are available and tell Ed I said hello.
 
Really feels like a microsoft commercial. All you need is the squiggly white lines going everywhere.

Really good nathan.
 
Looks really great Nathan.
I would have two question for you:

1. What lens did you use on that footage ?

2. I liked the music ... what is it ? :)

Thanks for the sharing,

Cheers,
 
It tells at the beginning of the video, but

Canon 50mm F-mount (old still camera lens)

and the music is by one of my favorite bands "The National"
the song is called "Gospel"

thanks Hawk
 
IF-mount (old still camera lens)

Thanks, that was the information I was looking for :) I know it was 50mn Canon but as you know there's many different type of lens.

Since I love photography, I have a canon 350D with a couple of lens. By the way I love your photography too. My favorite is the first one on your blog :)

I discovered 'The National' thanks to your blog... Sounds like I gonna bought their album :)

Cheers
 
Hey,
Thanks everyone. I haven't used rods with my letusFE and I've had it for
about a year and a half, no problems. Im just now working with the "Indi-rods"
and I think if the new ones work out i'll continue to use them. So I recommend them,
but its really not that heavy and I can't deny that the thread is still fine and strong.
