I love to fly in helicopters…I especially like to use them for shooting assignments. A few weeks ago a good friend and fellow photographer Jackie Shumaker was headed out to do an aerial assignment, so I asked if I could come along and shoot a little podcast about the flight. After getting the go ahead from the AirCam and the pilot we were off. Two GoPro cameras and the Canon XF300 were put in place to capture Jackie, the pilot and the flight. Here’s the result from our short aerial shoot.

Want to get decent looking video with your DSLR? Take a look at the new shoulder mount rig that we put together here at Mauromedia. Just recently we purchased several items to make a quality shoulder mount rig for our Canon 5D Mark II’s and the new Canon 1D Mark IV’s.

After months of hype, the Canon 1D Mark IV is finally in our studio. We’ve not had much of a chance to use them in the field but we thought we would give your our first impressions.

I’ve been playing with the 5D mark II for several months now and I continue to be impressed with the video quality. This footage was shot in about a 3 hour time span using a canon 500mm f4 lens and sachtler video head and gitzo tripod. I edited the footage in the field on a Mac Book Pro using Final Cut Pro.

It’s in the bag…a short video highlighting what camera equipment photographer Michael Mauro takes when shooting a commercial assignment.

Just got the Canon 5D Mark II and plan on shooting quite a bit of video for various projects…but first we need to set up the proper tripod. Michael Mauro shows you how he modified a video fluid head to work with the Canon 5D Mark II and various lenses.
