NYC Fireworks

NYC Fireworks this year were incredible. I couldn't help but film them with my newly hacked GF1 in 1080p.

The orientation is vertical, so I suggest full-screening the video for optimal flava.

Exposure was f2, 1/20th of a second, ISO 400

GH1 / GF1 Firmware Hack

The Panasonic GF1 is a fantastic (and compact) camera for stills and video that uses the almost the same hardware as Panasonic's high-end GH series of cameras.

My GF-1 as shot by my cell phone.

There is a hack available that enables the GF1 to shoot in full 24 frame per second, 1080p with full manual exposure controls just like its larger brethren.

Install instructions and sample video after the jump.

Look Up

Daytime long exposures with the GF1. Most exposures were f18 @ 60 seconds.

Second time out with my ND110 on the GF1 + 20mm. Still working on getting the hang of this filter and technique.

Processed using DXO Optics Pro. 

Four more after the jump.

Mermaid Parade

Shot the NYC Mermaid Parade this past Saturday with 4 friends. Kept the gear simple... a Olympus E-1 with a 12-60 mounted on the front.



More Mermaid goodness after the jump

Union Square Pillow Fight

Such a fun day. Used a Panasonic GF1 with 20mm and Olympus 14-42 lenses.

Few more pics after the jump...

Arizona

The drive north on 89a.

Just got back from a week in Arizona. Scenery and people were incredible... exactly what I needed.

Cameras used were e-620 and e-1 with the 12-60 and 50-200 lenses.




Three more after the jump.
