Hi,
I've shooted a little documentary in the south of Peru', in Apurimac:
the highest point was at 5200m, or 17000 ft..

I was shooting for the second time with a GH1 (hacked, thanks Vitaliy and lpowell),
the result it's very good,
it's possible to watch here

I use the 14-42mm with OIS and some Minolta lenses: 135mm T 2.8, 50mm T 1.7, with a simple adaptador..

Thanks!

Thanks for your comment!
Yes, the people in the Andes live in another world.

The title in english it's like
In Apurimac I keep to listen
(I don't know if it's corret english! Sorry)
because Apu means God in quechua language, Rimac it's who is talking.

It's another world. I enjoyed it. Peruvians love their hats!
 
I think it might be cool to add some voice over or some text describing some of the scenes, just a little would go a long way
 
Very nice - some beautiful shots.
The only thing I didn't like was the use of high shutter speed. Personally I would have used ND filter to keep the shutter at 1/50th.
Also some of the shots were a bit wobbly (I don't mean the ones that are obviously meant to be shakey like in the car). Were you using a very lightweight tripod?
But these are small points - overall excellent.
 
Yes, you have reason:
I was using high shutter speed (wich I like sometime) because I was without ND,
and my tripod it's very lightweight..
Not so small points for me..

Thank you very much for your appreciation!
