Finaly, some of the very 1st shots… part 1

January 15, 2008

So... I received the Hy6 and the Sinarback eMotion 75 LV - (33 million pixels!) with a Schneider AFD-Xenotar PQS 2.8/80 mm lens the day before I had to leave to shoot the Lagoon 67 catamaran "Perles Noires" and the CNB 77 "Four Devils".
It is not a secret that I had at that time no clue of how a medium format camera works when you are "on the field"! Hopefully the shots where planned to happen in the caribbean blue waters around the island of Saint-Martin, so I had 8 hours of plane to read and learn "by heart" the camera's documentation.
Learning the new software to develop the 16 bits - 190 Mb files will be another day!
I'm pleased to show you below some of the pictures I shot during these two days of work...

The Lagoon 67 catamaran "Perles Noires":

Enjoy!

I'm leaving for a 4 days shoot in Istanbul and Saint-Tropez, so I won't be able to answer any questions before next Thursday. I thought this could be nice looking for the week-end…
