Trust – a small review

I`ve seen the Sun-Sniper in use plenty of times. Bert Stephani, Mike Larson and Pieter Van Impe all use it, but I have never been able to trust that small screw and carbine hook to hold my camera. Until now that is. I ordered mine a couple of weeks ago after shooting a wedding. I used two cameras and always had the dilemma where to put the second camera when not in use. The first thing I did when I returned home was to order a Sun-Sniper strap :D

After using it last night at a Tapdance event I still wonder why I did not get this earlier. It is amazing, you have the camera ready all the time. Switching between cameras has never been easier. I just love the Sun-Sniper so far, and yes I Trust it :D that small little screw and carbine hook ;)

My Sun-Sniper in use (with a small modification, the black tube on the carbine hook is there so the steel does not scratch the camera or lens)

Check it out and order one at Sun-Snipers website.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year from Bernt-Inge Madsen on Vimeo.

Filmed with my Canon 5D mk2 during the New Years celebration here in Norway. ISO is set to 3200 and I used my 70-200mm 2.8L IS lens. I`m pretty happy with the 5D as an HD camera but the power lines ruined most of the film :/

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Here is a Christmas card to all of you that did not receive one this year :D

Hope you all have a great Christmas :D

LIME Workshop with Mike Larson and Pieter Van Impe @ The Barn

Last weekend Kristian and me went down to Belgium for a LIME Workshop with Mike Larson and Pieter Van Impe @ The Barn.

After getting up 4 in the morning to catch the flight it was nice to get settled in to the hotel and rest for a bit. Saturday Kristian and me went around the city and had a few beers and enjoyed some great food. As the devoted photographers that we are the cameras got some exercise also:
Brussels City Hall
Light Trails in Brussels

The next morning we got up around 7 and started our journey out to Bert Stephani`s house. Two trains and a cab ride later we arrived @ The Barn ready for our first International Workshop ;)

Pictures from the workshop can be seen here : http://www.bernt-inge.net/foto/LIME%20Workshop/

A huge thanks to Mike Larson, Pieter Van Impe and Bert Stephani for a great workshop experience. Looking forward to see you guys again soon :D
