Boris Kalaidjiev Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 Hi everyone, A bit of a neiche question. I have an upcoming shoot where we have a shot of someone jumping out of a plane. The camera operator is of course a professional certified skydiver with a helmet that you strap a camera onto. My question is, has anyone shot anything like this recently that's not with a GoPro? The first thing that they said was a RED Komodo which I guess is because of the global shutter but does anyone have any experience with a Sony FX6 or FX3? Would the FX3 be better or worse because of its internal stabilisation? The skydivers mentioned that there are a lot of vibration during the freefall. Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot!
Albion Hockney Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 The stabilization might get funky I’d test that if you want to try it. This is. It stabilization in camera and looks great 1
Boris Kalaidjiev Posted March 2, 2024 Author Posted March 2, 2024 @Albion Hockney Can you make out the camera and lens? The lens maybe looks like a Signature Prime but i doubt they would strap such a big lens. What do you mean by in camera stabilisation, IBIS or use gyro data from the camera to afterwards stabilise it like they do with the FPV drones? I am actually also wondering if the rolling shutter on the FX3 & FX6 would be a problem? Of course all this has to be tested out but I was hopping that someone has had some experience with this before I go ahead.
Boris Kalaidjiev Posted March 3, 2024 Author Posted March 3, 2024 I am mainly talking about the FX3 and FX6 because of the higher frame rates. It would be useful to be able to slow down stuff.
