Pixeleye Camera Setup 2009
pixeleye, 14:55h
Ok, folks! After lots of boys and girls were asking for my camera setup again and again - here it is - updated 2009
Canon 5D Mark II + Batterygrip
Canon EF USM 3,5-5,6/28-135 IS
Canon EF-L USM 4,0/70-200 CPS
Three 8 GB Compact Flash Cards SanDisk Extreme III
Canon Speedlite 430 EX
MacBook 13" silver for mobile processing
Pinstriping by MAZE
Normally i shoot EVERYTHING with only one lens - because i am just to lazy to move around with a big camera bag; i tried to do so but it just makes me feel uncomfortable and sick - especially at liveshows.
My camera equipment fits in a Lowepro Toploader bag i use for 6 years now. Perfect for me! I´m shooting mainly in RAW Format and liveshots mainly in highest JPEG quality. RAW Import by Adobe Lightroom. Finalisation in Photoshop CS3.

Dust to Glory
pixeleye, 10:08h
Don't be surprised if you feel a dry, tickling sensation in the back of your throat after watching the slam-bang racing documentary Dust to Glory. It's probably from the lingering sand and silt spewed from the knobby wheels of an array of machines that skitter from one end of the Baja Peninsula to the other. Using 90 cameras in a variety of formats, director Dana Brown captures the giddy danger of the race with truly visceral force. In 1967, a few California thrill-seekers had the Eureka spirit to take their homemade race cars for some whooping-up in the wide-open land just a few hours away. Since then, the Baja 1000 has turned into a party-fueled happening that's more akin to Burning Man than the Indy 500. It's billed as the world's longest nonstop race, running point-to-point for 1,000 miles through the Mexican desert from Tijuana to La Paz--pretty much the entire length of Baja.
Dana Brown is the son of Bruce Brown, whose 1966 film The Endless Summer sparked a surfing craze, and still holds up as an incomparable ode to the existential surfing lifestyle. Dust to Glory is by no means so profound and uses more of a Warren Miller thrill-marketing style (he of the annual throwaway extreme-skiing films). Cameras swoop down from helicopters, careen through silt, and are put into tracks over which vehicles pass at extreme speeds. In spite of the adrenaline rush, Dust to Glory is ultimately more about what people think about the higher implications of the competition. One veteran finisher describes it this way: "It's like having all 10,000 close calls of your life in one day. It makes regular life feel like slow-motion.
