  1. Is it just me, or is "Undertaker" a really bad name for a swooping canopy? -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232
  2. So it's more or less than same as before then? Previously if you touch water after the entry gate in Distance, then that was where your distance was measured. Seams weird that touching water "is allowed" -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232
  3. There will be more swimmers! -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232
  4. From what I understand, as this is a Category 2 event, they can use it as a trial for the World Championships next year.... -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  7. I have just been looking at the Olympus Pen range, the E-PL2 has a remote shutter release option, and comes with a 14-42mm lens, surely that would be ideal for jumping?! I too am waiting for a NEX that has a shutter release terminal, but with a new line just announced, I guess we will be waiting a while longer... -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  9. There was a Russian guy here in Empuria jumping a TD10 at the weekend, What an awesome camera, the picture is incredible, really impressed, He only ever flies Headdown, but the footage was great and very stable, didn't get a chance to try it out though, really wanted to try it with a tandem to see how it handled belly, back and sit -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  14. I've been playing with 3D a little, but only onto YouTube, I've not yet seen my videos on a HD TV and curious as to if they have worked. I like the whole 3D TV thing and hope it's here to stay, I'm not against the wearing of glasses, I wear sunglasses practically all the time, so it's not a problem for me -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  17. So who was in the FF teams?? As usual the coverage for Freefly is rubbish, no pictures of the teams.... But at least we have scores!!! http://www.omniskore.com/comp/2010/wc/ae/ffopen.asp Why doesn't Skyleague cover all disciplines at the World Competitions?? -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232
  18. Yeah it's blocked in Germany because of the music.... trying to sort that -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  20. At launch there isn't a remote cable shutter release, but the NEX-5 does have infrared remote (Not much use, but shows that the circuity/programming for a shutter is there) Maybe there's a way of making a USB release for it? -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  23. Just been announced for a June release http://presscentre.sony.eu/content/detail.aspx?ReleaseID=5880&NewsAreaId=2 No mention of cable release, but it has changeable lenses with a 16mm wide and mention of a fisheye adaptor too..... -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232

  25. That's cool, sounds good, Here at Empuria some people use the 18-55 and others use a Tokina AT-X107, 10-17 Fisheye and they're heavy, so this little thing sounds good, and a couple of guys have the little Ricoh's, but they're so expensive! -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232
