Short Piece my boy Malcolm and I shot. We used 2 AF 100 cameras for this. One camera had the Nikon 80-200 F2.8 and the other was setup with the Nikon 300m F2.8

 
It looked good! I really liked it...

Now for something only 1% of the world will notice... What is up with the ghost imaging? Is that from a filter?
 
I didn't notice that till you brought it up. I don't see it during the actual golf shots but only the interview stuff. We each had Schneider True Polarizer filters but taped the hell out of the matte box. Not sure how light could have gotten in there. Thoughts?
 
Nicely done. Controlling those highlights in that kind of setting is a tricky thing, but you did it justice by slightly underexposing. Liked it.

I just noticed you're in Springs. Nice to have a neighbor with talent. :-)

It seems to be in the interview and in the golf-B roll. Most of the time the B-roll is static enough that you can't see the highlight ghosts move, so it's practically invisible. Maybe look at 1:55, that is some golf footage that has it too. Like I said, not many will notice, and that apparently included you! :)

It's not light getting in, light a light leak... it might be the filter in the sense that the light is entering the camera, hitting the front element of the lens, then hitting the filter and that is what you see, the light reflection coming back in. The filter was likely not perfectly perpendicular with the sensor, so you get that offset. Meaning the camera left side of the filter must have been a bit further than the camera-right side of the filter. Maybe it was the way it was taped... maybe it's another problem altogether. That is just my best guess.
