GoPro HD - Skimboarding In A Storm! from Patrick Lawler on Vimeo.
You know, I like photography (errr, duh…) – but I have to admit that some of the new film work coming out of these consumer HD film toys like the GoPro and other similar action sports video gear is really impressive!! They are shooting some amazing stuff from perspectives I would never have considered useful (or even safe for my gear!!).
Can you image shooting the video above with your Canon 7D? It’s not that complex really – stick your camera on the end of a stick, splash around in the surf, and throw it to your mate occasionally… oh, and crashes are mandatory!!
I’m not suggesting for a moment that these types of cameras are going to replace DSLRs, that’s not their intention – but you can get some very cool ideas just from watching what people are doing with the other available technologies!!
