  • 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 :)

Motion!

Thanks, Larry! Yeah, I'm thinking that flicker right before the moon comes up has something to do with the moon peeking its head up around the rocks or whatever. The only other remote possibilities are passing cars on the road a few hundred meters away (at 2:00am), or me in my tent about 200 meters away with my little reading headlamp on, reading a book. Sounds crazy, but I have actually caused flickering in a moonless star shot just by sitting about 30 feet away from the camera listening to my iPod. The little LCD screen on an iPod throws off enough light to register on the rocks and foreground in a 90-second exposure!... haha.

I PM'd you about meeting up. That would be awesome.

Here was my latest motion timelapse.... unfortunately I had a fuse blow on one of my DC power connectors at around 2AM, so it's really only half a timelapse.. about 6 seconds...

Hi Tom, I must say you create some stunning shots... and I am please to know that you use the Mumford panning head. I got one a few months back and began experimenting while waiting for my Red to arrive... which has finally happened. Did you ever get the Mumford hooked up to a Red? If so do you know what the wiring is for the cable by any chance? I'm guessing it's a make it yourself situation...
Thanks for your help.

Yeah, the pan motion adds heaps to it. These look perfect to me. Good work!

Tom, can I take your offer and get you on my next shoot in remote Australia? :) hehehe
 
Sure, just send me a plane ticket and I'm there! :wink:

heh, this is a really old thread zamman dug up. no, i haven't tried to sync the mumford to the red yet. i might try it next month out in the field.
 
Tom, that's great I hope it goes well and do let us see the results... sometimes it requires a little digging to get to something interesting ;–)
