This body will give me the ability to capture full HD 1080p video, 16MP files, and perform HDR and selective color rendition of images in-camera with very light weight and a compact form for backpacking, climbing, travel and other active pursuits. The articulated 3″ screen is excellent and makes extreme-angle shooting such as video and macro much easier.
Don’t yet know how its battery will hold up to cold nor how the body will withstand heat and other weather.. we’ll see.

for more information about this demonstration and march in downtown Los Angeles, held at Olympic and Broadway intersection and beginning at 10 AM Sunday, May Day (1 May 2011).
I will attend if my schedule allows that morning, and if so I plan to shoot HD-video for interviews and crowd coverage as well as still images. In the past I’ve sent material to the ANSWER coalition’s LA chapter for use in the media, including on the Washington, DC national website. I have included a direct link on my blog/site here for more information about their activities.
If others plan to attend, and wish to join me, write or call.
Shot my first portraits in a while with the 200-400mm f/4 VR at the Alley… we used ambient and flash for the session.

I shot this a few days ago in Three Rivers, CA east of Visalia, with my friend Charles McElroy on his motorcycle and the GoPro camera attached (partially….) to the front end- it detached partway into the clip, but wasn’t damaged.
