Beck’s spot shot on 7D with Zeiss/Nikon primes

Cameras

I was introduced to PopTent a few months back by my friend Alan Gwizdowski, and I have been shooting for their contests ever since.  It’s a great website to find big name companies looking to buy specs.  This particular spot was my introduction to poptent and to shooting on HDSLRs.  We had a Canon 7D, a Zeiss ZE 100mm macro, and an assortment of Nikon primes.  We ended up living...Read More

Simple Green Spot Shot With a Canon 7D and Zeiss ZE Glass

Cameras

By: Jared Abrams Here is a quick spot, shot on the Canon 7D with Zeiss ZE Primes. Director Billy Jayne hooked up this little Simple Green spot. He is one kick ass Director to watch. The concept of the spot is a husband stealing his wife’s Simple Green to clean his ride. He gets busted and tries to hide the evidence behind his back. We were fighting the sun all day until magic hour....Read More

The best part is that they were using a Canon 5D Mark II with the 24-105mm kit lens! I wanted to finally thank them...Read More

Drop Test #3. Canon LP-E6 Battery

Cameras

By: Jared Abrams Here is another helpful Drop Test. We decided to go with something a little more realistic this time around. We dropped a Canon LP-E6 Battery from about six feet. As you can see in the video the battery casing cracked open. This could result in serious damage to the camera if anything were to leak out. Hopefully Canon will take note and improve the casing on these batteries. At over...Read More

Cameras

By: Jared Abrams The first “Drop Test” was such a success we decided to do a few more. Here is Drop Test #2-Litepanels MicroPro. We Dropped the Litepanels MicroPro three times for our latest edition of  “Drop Test“. Future Rock star Shooter Hunter Kerhart missed the first landing. He was still in shock after getting his new iPad, the second landing went way off camera. By the third try, he nailed it! This battery-powered on...Read More
