I bought the Canon MP-E 65mm f2.8 manual 1-5x macro lens a month ago and today was the first time I had a chance to try it out. The lens is $1000.00 and it is a specialty lens. It is good for only one thing, macro photos and video (using Letus DOF adapters or a [...]
This is a sample of the work I have shot for broadcast television this fall at Fenway Park with the Boston Red Sox. This footage is currently being used for playoff promos and could possibly be utilized in a documentary about Fenway Park. This was shot at 1080 30p with a Sony PMW-EX1 and a [...]
I am visiting my sister and her husband in Tucson, Arizona. I will be working on a job later this week, but in the meantime, I am running around the desert shooting the crazy stuff that grows here. We do not have spiky cactus in New England! I am using the Sony PMW-EX1 with the [...]
I shot at a friend’s farm in New Hampshire and banked a bunch of “Cow” stock footage. You never know when you will need a shot of a cow eating, belching or mooing. I will shoot a much longer Letus film at this beautiful location when I have more time. Later, I shot a small [...]
I was hired to shoot a 30 second spot for a local Rhode Island television network. This network broadcasts most of the Providence College Friars’ basketball games. The purpose of this commercial was to promote the station’s coverage of the college team in a dramatic way with a religious tone. I shot everything in one [...]
I hiked my PMW-EX1 camera with the Letus Extreme into the White Mountain of New Hampshire a few days ago. I hit it at peak fall foliage and for the first time, I was able to shoot the beautiful rainbow of color with my 35mm lenses. I primarily used my Nikon 55mm f2.8 macro. I [...]
I shot a video at Champney Falls in Albany, New Hampshire back in 2001 with my Sony Z1U HDV camera. This place had two waterfalls, Champney and Pitcher and was located on the side of Mount Chocorua. When I bought my PMW-EX1 a few months ago, I put this place back on the list to [...]
I drove to Chatham, Massachusetts to work the Cape Cod League All-Star Game and decided to bring the EX1 and Letus. I headed up a few hours early to beat the infamous Cape Cod traffic and as a result, I had some time to shoot a short film at the Chatham Lighthouse beach. I used [...]
Around this time of year (March) in New England, animals awake from hibernation. This year is no exception and with the record snowfall in and around the Boston area, many creatures are happy to see most of the white stuff gone. The sun is starting to become more and more intense. I was mountain biking [...]
