Hey guys, here's a very simple piece shot on two MX Scarlets. Shot 3K 48fps.

It's a SWAMP PEOPLE stunt with Troy, one of the stars of the show. He's riding a mechanical gator, and having a lot of fun doing it!

A-Cam had a CANON FD 7.5mm fisheye (modded and converted to EOS by RP lens). B-Cam had an RP Lens Modded Contax 35-135 (one of our work horses). The timelapses at the top were with a Tokina 11-16.

We had 10mins to shoot this, and you can see how much coverage the 35-135 bought us. Greg our operator managed to grab wides, tights, you name it...while Ryan danced inside on the fisheye.

A-CAM also had a MOTION MOUNT, and you can see how clean the footage is. B-Cam is a little green, from the 1.5 or 1.8 ND we had on it.

This was one of MANY pieces we shot at a NASCAR event in Charlotte, NC. For History Channel. Over the weekend we mostly shot w/ Contax Zooms (28-85, 35-135, 80-200, 100-300). The versatility of these zooms was a HUGE bonus. Most of the time A-Cam rocked 28-85, and B-Cam grabbed more closeups and portraits with 35-135 or 80-200.
