Not sure if I can post trials pics in here but not worth a thread
All from my first roll with new camera (Mamiya 7II)
Matt has the best TGS style of anyone. So smooth yet immense power. Liked the TRA lines at Cowm Cap. That side hop is a horrible line, Awesome riding all round. Favorite video of the year for me.
Olympus trips are fun but you have no control except focus, aperture and shutter speeds are automatic. How about an Olympus OM10. Its an SLR with a great standard 50mm 1.8. It has aperture priority (or manual with an adapter) and can be had for £50.
Btw if you want a trip or an OM10 or pretty much anything you can find online that you fancy PM me and I can probably sort you one out for a sensible price, I work in a camera dealer in manchester. We sell only used photo gear and its 99% film stuff and we have most cameras you can think.
Edit not sure if this is allowed. Mods delete this if I stepped over the line.
Bought that Speed Graphic lol The rangefinder was blacked out but I fixed that then decided to buy it, Shutter is working perfectly surprisingly. On the lookout for an Aero ektar at some point now for some serious shallow DOF
Right think of it this way.
100 people in a hotel. 50 men 50 women. 1 Man goes round and has sex with every lady. He therefore has slept with 50 women, while the women has only slept with one man each. Your theory doesn't stand up unfortunately. Theres no rule
Very cool riding. Much preferred the second half of the video with some bigger moves in with the same style. Would definatly like to see a better quality video in daylight though.
Great idea and the execution is looking good. One area that would concern me is how do the clamped interfaces handle things like 'wedges', wedges and hooks. The stress on the clamped surfaces would be huge, are you not worried people will that pulling the head tubes away from the top and down tubes or at least slipping in the mounts
Area 51 is such a closely guarded secret that if you type it into google earth.... Oh wait..
It had something like a 14 mile runway. (the longest in the world when in operation) It was just a place to hold and test secret military equipment and hypersonic planes, Hence the UFO connection.
Couldnt careless about the Illuminati but Area 51 has always interested me.
Everywhere will want a huge deposit unless you have a few experiences with them where they can often let you leave a reduced deposit and some ID like your passport.
Buy one on ebay for £200 and sell it when you get back ?
