Prawn Attack! 109g2s
Here is a short 'in-cockpit' film of a Raw Prawn sortie. A group of us bolted on an extra pair of 20mm to our 109g2s for extra punch.
All the footage was captured 'live'.
This is my first successful use of what I call mega high definition, 1680x946 (16:9 widescreen aspect ratio) at 60 frames per second.

Well the quality is exceptionally there and TrackIR shots are always nice. But at a ratio of 75mb per minute of film, you may have to burn DVD copies and mail it to people if you were to make it a full length film.

Yes, the size is very indulgent :D
My maximum size is 100 meg per film, so 50 meg for less than a minute is a bit much :confused: :lol
For interest, the un-compressed version is over 10 000 megabytes per minute. :eek:
This is the first time I've been able to post a full resolution film, without quality loss. Im happy :salute

Heya South,
Looks great. =)
Can I ask a couple of questions?
#1. Why film in 1680x1050? You could record the film in 720p (1280x720) which would keep a widescreen aspect ration (16:9), dramatically reduce the file size, as well as conform to an HD standard that is both friendly to monitors and HDTV screens. (720p @60fps looks great on a 1080p TV, and still pretty good on a 1680x1050LCD monitor).
#2. What kind of filter are you using on that video? The lighting looks like nothing I've seen before. =)
Thanks!

Gday Knite,
I fly at that resolution so I wanted to see if I could make a film to fully represent what I see, rather than a resized image. Thanks for the resolution suggestion, I'll likely make the next one at 720p 16:9.
The lighting uses increase contrast and decreased brightness settings as well a a VirtualDub old movie filter plugin MSU Old Cinema 2.0. A small color saturation adjustment was needed.
Have you seen the new B17 formation and the B26 attack films?
-
Yes I did Landa. Gotta say, the 60FPS really helps a LOT I think. I just got done with the B26 attack and it makes me wish I had track IR =)
