Good things come in small packages

Before I got hold of a GoPro or Contour miniature camera, I was ecstatic about the small(er) size of the 7D for remote mounting compared to the much larger Sony EX1 video camera.

A Canon 7D was used for some POV shots of a Maserati.

Below is the video with the 7D.

Plus, bouncing a $1,700 7D off the ground was better than a $6,500 EX1 or at least that’s how I rationalized it.

Along come the $299 GoPro and Contour miniature cameras. Cannon fodder. Bounce away I say.

A Contour miniature camera was used for POV shots of the E-Tracer.

Below is the LA Times video that colleague Don Kelsen and I shot.

Below is a video I shot with a couple of Go Pro cams mounted to my motorcycle.

Here's the camera setup for the moto ride.

Was my last post really over a year ago?

I’ve been squatting on this valuable piece of internet real estate that someone else could have used to build their digital McMansion. I don’t care though. I’ve been cooped up in my edit bay copyin’ and editin’ and generally thrashing about.

Here’s photographic proof.

Look ma. A Canon 7D

I wanted to memorialize my friend Bert’s breakfast by shooting video of it with the new Canon 7D equipped with the iDC Photography eyepiece.

Some wild food

Dinner at Neptune’s Lounge in Koreatown with live seafood. Little creepy but actually tasty. Shot with the Canon 7D.

Checking out things on the other side of the fence in Tijuana.

Tacos and Fanta for energy.

Experiencing a little bit of culture

My yearly dose of culture with a visit to the Huntington Library and Garden.

Myung’s homepage launched

After hours of grueling coding, suffering through carpal tunnel and missing out on my nap, I spent my staycation building my homepage.

Driving along in Piru one morning when I saw this.

Daikokuya — Wow! No waiting!

My homage to Daikokuya ramen in Little Tokyo.
