Tsshhh  :indifferent: Shows off his new photography on facebook, then promptly struts onto the forum to do the same.


 :laugh: :wink:
So the perseverance with the brakes was worth it in the end it seems?  :smiley:

I'm always jealous of rolling shots.

Well. You can either buy one from automotiverigs.com for about 700 dollars, or make one yourself. I did half and half. I bought the car clamps from automotive rigs, and then bought some aluminium tubing to make the poles which are in 4 pieces and hinged in the middle.

Thanks TC. It is a little scary yes. 2.5k camera bouncing up and down, but so long as the bits are done up tightly its fairly secure.  :scared:

The best results i found where when pushing the car in neutral. The rear view shot was done by pulling the car from the front, 1-2mph max  :happy2:

Yes i remember reading a write up, and the guy did the shots by pushing the car in reverse round a carpark, the illusion of speed is superb.  :driver:

....Looks like wide angle lens 'distortion' (bendy car) to me but it's not on every shot. All I'm saying is that it's not to my taste for the subject.  :happy2:

Incredible stuff!  :congrats:

Correct, either crawling along in D with my foot half on the brake or pushing it in N with the handbrake off. You get the sense of movement from the long shutter speed, the car might only move 0.5-1 meter during the exposure.  :happy2:

Robin... i know what you mean about the lens distortion, even though its only a 24mm lens. I would prefer to use an even wider lens like a 17mm, that way you end up capturing more of the movement. At 650 quid though it wont be on my shopping list anytime soon. :signLOL:

Im pleased you all like the results :notworthy:

Correct, either crawling along in D with my foot half on the brake or pushing it in N with the handbrake off. You get the sense of movement from the long shutter speed, the car might only move 0.5-1 meter during the exposure.  :happy2:

Robin... i know what you mean about the lens distortion, even though its only a 24mm lens. I would prefer to use an even wider lens like a 17mm, that way you end up capturing more of the movement. At 650 quid though it wont be on my shopping list anytime soon. :signLOL:

Im pleased you all like the results :notworthy:

I've actualy got all those parts in my tool cupboard at work. Will just neet to make the little brace inbetween the 2 clamps  :wink:

Man alive Rich, your pictures are freaking awesome.   :notworthy:
I was just trawlling through Briskoda looking at some rig shots, I would love to have a crack at this with my car.  Problem is I don't think it will work quite as well with a 100 quid Sony compact.....?  :sad1:

What's the going rate for having this sort of thing done professionally?
