Brad Kremer is better known for shooting snowboard movies but he obviously got the timelapse bug a few years back too.

I first saw his timelapsing here.

This is the best one I have seen yet…really inspiring.

Above Skywalker

by on Mar.25, 2010, under 5D films, Outdoors!, Photography

I came across this video while researching my next camera purchase.

It is shot entirely on a Canon 5D Mk11 DSLR and the location is above the Skywalker ranch in California. The ranch is right next to my future step father’s property called Lowecha which we visited at Christmas.

The filmer is a British guy called Philip Bloom who’s work I’ve been following. He is at the forefront of using DSLR’s for filming purposes and his videos shows how far the boundaries are being pushed right now. I particularly love the DOF that it is possible to get with these camera. The timelapse shots are very cool too.

“What I wanted to do with this piece was just to take in the majesty of the surrounding area. It truly is breathtaking and this video doesn’t anywhere near do it justice. It’s so epic, serene and peaceful up there. Truly wonderful.”

Philip Bloom’s site is here with loads of movies on it…I particularly liked this one about the people of San Francisco.

I’m still undecided on the 5D vs 7D comparison…basically I want both…
