Cameras Everywhere
The most transformational invention of the last twenty-five years has got to be high quality hyper-portable digital movie cameras. They went from showing you postage stamp size blurs to hi-def on your 50″ plasma in the blink of an eye. YouTube would be nothing without them. Hell, just Russian dash cameras justify whatever blood, sweat, and treasure went into developing them. And of course, cameras ruggedized to go most anywhere, like GoPros, means the most Sociopathic of Borderline Boys can shout HEY FELLAS, WATCH THIS, and still get it all on camera.
But dude, shouting underwater isn’t really going to help much.
One thought on “Cameras Everywhere”
some of those shots were awesome just because of where the camera could be. i remember the early 90s seeing tv footage of coverage at a surf competition. all the cameras had huge lenses are were well up the beach to keep them from harm. this relatively cheap small camera just blows them out of the wate…well not exactly out of the water but you know what i mean.
