Patrick that was great. Like Peter said, you did a great job of matching the coloration of the two mediums and it came out great. Nice work.

Thanks Steven. We are thinking of doing a poster sized print in metallic paper of either the one at the side of the barn where she is jumping oni his back and her hair is the air, or the one shortly thereafter where they are sitting in the field together with the very dark blue sky. My personal fav is by far the last one as it is very original, in my opinion, and has such an edge to it.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi Jon,

The Pilot is a great rig. It is similiar if not better than the Magiqcam I used for several years. I, like you, had the tendency to use it at first and then leave it at home. Once I got enough practice in and worked through the learning curve, it was a huge benefit throughout every production. We now do real-estate walk throughs with it, I use it on all our love stories as well as our larger wedding packages.

Thanks Ben. That is something that I set out to do from the beginning and is usually much tougher as the photos have such high contrast and good saturation, plus they are edited for a good 20-30 min each. Not only did I have a preset on the A1 designed to give me more color and high contrast, but I also had to boost the saturation in post and really play with the curves. I was surprised how much adjustment I could make and the shots still looked good, although some are definately more edgy to match the photos.

Thanks again. It is always great to hear comments along the lines of what you were hoping to acheive.

Hi John,

I didn't get a chance to use my redeye for that shoot. Without a lens hood, you ned to be very careful of dust on the lens when your shooting outdoors. Everything was shot with the modded raynox fisheye (only the first few shots) and the rest was done with the 16x9 INC .7 wide angle. I got that only because I can add a lens hood. The cavision WA I had was basically useless when quality is a concern.

Thanks Richard. I really like how both the photos and video can add to each other when done right.
