Shooting direct down

Hi All,

Started flying yesterday and am building confidence to start flying my Sony Nex5 but I'm going to strap it under the batterie and shoot direct down for our new www.floorink.com gallery. I'm going to shoot all textures through the seasons that can be used for floor images, I'm starting next weekend with Bluebells. All the tiles ie *Files* will be cropped at 2m x 2m (7' x7')
if you want you join in let me know.

Regards

Kristian

I know, it's very cool. I was just going to get others to take the images but I'm also getting right in to it myself. Cheers for the reply though

We are looking to start a new gallery shooting direct down to the ground for natural textures and finishes like grass, trees etc. you are in a great place to get some fantastic shots for this concept.

The best camera that I have for aerial photos is the Nex 5n. I'll use that one and also try some with my older Canon cameras.

does the Nex 5n have IR shutter control  how do you guyus trigger the camera in the air also  are you guys using the stock lense it comes with or something different  i like that camera i might buy one

Yes, the Nex 5, 5N, and 7 all have IR shutter control.  A couple easy ways to remotely trigger them is to either buy a GentLED or buy a cheap remote control and de-case it and convert to rc use.

One caveat to the NEX cameras is that they only have hdmi video output.  So you either have to get an hdmi to vga converter box (slight lag in video) or add an extra little video camera for fpv.

Vishal,
Are you still using the Nex5, if so how did you end up converting the HDMI to AV, I see Foxtech has a nice hdmi to av converter for $50......Don

Hi Don, I just use a separate fpv camera mounted near the lens.  I'm not sure how much lag these HDMI to AV converters have.  If you try one, let me know your thoughts on it.
