steelyeye 0 #706 October 6, 2007 Koidl - Those are way cool! We have been tossing around the idea of filming a static line student on exit with the camera man hanging off the strut and releasing at the same time - any tips or warnings?

I'll be updating the movie to fix that.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StefB 0 #711 October 9, 2007 Last sunday evening. I had so much luck with the light. In Germany we call this time of year "goldener Oktober" (golden october)... this is a picture of a funjump. None of the jumpers has more than 100 jumps, so the result is not this bad ;-) Stefan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laszloimage 0 #712 October 9, 2007 Nice ones Arvel! I like the 3-way exit shot the most. Here's mine just from few hours ago when I jumped from a B-17 bomber. -Laszlo- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnboy 0 #716 October 11, 2007 I only added my still camera about two months ago after upgrading my Hanson to an FTP. I also wanted to get enough time in dealing with just the video before putting more crap on my head. So here are some shots now that I think I have the settings I like on my camera. Be gentle on me!

johnboy 0 #721 October 12, 2007 The Santa outfit goes well with the shorts... Thanks for comments all. I'm not sure how to adjust white balance on a film camera, lest I get Photoshop. Any thoughts for a photo newbie? Heaven forbid I do a search.... I did confirm yesterday, however, that a 40D should be in my possesion come December. Heavy beast, but damn was that fun to play with at the store! Time to double up on the neck exercises I guess. Thanks again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 3 #722 October 12, 2007 If that was shot on film, your scanner might be mis-set, or maybe your film was old? Used to see this sometimes with TriX...but it's been a long time since I've shot real film for anything, moving or still. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnboy 0 #723 October 12, 2007 It occurred to me shortly after I made my last post that it was probably the scanner at the store where I had the film developed. The film was at most 3 weeks old and developed just a few days ago. Film at age of development just over a month,maybe? I don't get prints anymore given the small number of shots I ever feel like printing out of a roll of film anyway. I'm going to try scanning the film on my scanner and see if I can resolve the issue. Or again, heaven forbid I get Photoshop. More than anything, I'm happy that I'm starting to get good shots on purpose rather than on accident. Thanks again!

stratostar 5 #725 October 12, 2007 Lee, was a guy doing solo's, so I asked if I could go with him, students always dig the first photos they ever get. So while these are nothing special to us, I'm sure Lee was digging getting these. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
