  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

EPIC Pulling 7G's @ Mach 0.95 via a F-16 Fighter Jet.

Awesome pic.

My EPIC went for a ride in this F-16. ...Nothing happened at 7G's while it was in the cockpit, though. I'm supposed to shoot more in the coming weeks, but don't know when just yet. Wish I could show more, not allowed to. Also shot some beautiful F-22 footage with the RED One a while back, but I wasn't allowed to keep or show any of it. :(

I've been in a cockpit of an Aggressor SQ. F-16, but not during flight, that must of been awesome Jeff!

I'm sure it was awesome, but I wasn't in the cockpit either... Just my camera was. ;) The lens of choice for that was the Duclos modified Tokina 11-16.
 
No matter your thoughts on War, to see a modern day fighter plane cruise over your head at 500mph is absolutely an in "Awe" experience. Everyone looks skyward when you hear the roar of those turbines.
 
Isn't it funny when your camera gets to do things you've always dreamed up, but you're not there, and you don't even get to show off the footage?Mine just got back from the city my great-grandparents immigrated from, and I've never been...

Jarred... very curious to know what frame rate / shutter angle was used at Mach .95!

Every time I get to witness it, I'm prompted to ask why they need bombs. Near fly-bys from military jets would just about scare you to death if you weren't ready for it.
 
I wonder if the IS of that Canon lens worked in those conditions...
