Anybody ever seen the "GOOD STUFF" skydiving dvd?

Recommended Posts

Yeah, it's pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is the (edit: seemingly) fake backgrounds that make it look like people are flying 100 feet off the ground for miles. But some of the stuff at Eloy is just incredible.

Edit: I don't know anything about photography. After Diablo's response I looked up long lens compression. Neat stuff.

It's a pretty cool side effect from a million dollar camera. Think about how it was shot and you may not think it so fake.

You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

i concur with jp... that expensive camera has a very very long lens. long lenses tend to compress the image making far away things look closer. Think of a crowd shot at a concert where it looks like there are dozens of people standing in the same square foot. in reality they may be quite a distance away.

HEY i havent talked to you in forever!!!!!!!!
merry christmas!!!!

you should come to eloy;)



Merry Christmas to you too!!!

Wish I could make it. I can't take off work from Dec. 'till about late Feb. due to peak season at work. Saving up for this summer though.

I agree with what JP and newshooter12 say about the camera too. It's not fake. Cameraman did a great job staying on the jumpers. Very cool side effect of such a very good camera.
