Filmed: Wee hours of Sep 13
Red Settings: ASA 1000, Shutter 1/48.
Red Zoom: 50mm, T3, focus within 8"

Here we get to see the Killer Red Fish up close! This fish bowl can fit in the palm of your hand without trouble (it's a desk top Beta fish). Our lens was within 8", probably about 6" away.

Another shoutout to Ken (Chazmo) for the assistance in fish rangling (fish are bad about hitting marks).

Well, if you had been paying scale, you could have got a union fish. :biggrin:

Alright Shawn! First RED (fish) post.
Are you in love or what?
Is it every thing you thought it would be?

For some weird psychological reason, I've managed to sneak shots of fish into quite a few of my projects :) So i'm digging this shot bigtime!

Looks like that ISO 1000 is treating you well. :-)

That's fantastic! Hugely impressed with that footage.

So, what're the chances of getting the fish to read over a script I'm attaching talent to? It's a grown-up version of Sharks Tale... I'll pay scale! ;o)

The first 'marine themed' images. Now just add a 20lb housing, lights, dive gear, Ocean surge, hungry sharks, a pitching boat and a screaming dive computer and you'll pretty much be able to get an idea of what us 'Bubble Blowers' are gonna have to contend with......can't wait.

Best Fishes,
Mark.

Cool. Looks great man. Enjoying your stuff. I know that if it has exceeded your expectations, then the rest of us are in for a real treat. Keep up the good work and keep the footage rolling in!

I bet the fish didn't forget that it saw the RED camera after 3 seconds! :)
