HI Surf Advisory updated! -- 3/10/06

Postby neosponge » Fri Mar 10, 2006 11:13 am

Finally took the time to update a lot of my pages. Still got several surf sessions and one good photo shoot to put up, but at least I'm getting closer. Some highlights:

Freefall -- 1/8/06 (session report)

No-Name Spots -- 2/5/06 (session words and most photos by Buddy)

Malik and Mortality (Road Runner Hawaii surf column article)

M*n*t*r E*e*g* Pro, Day 2 -- 2/6/06 (water photo shoot)

Neal the clarity on your shots is amazing, what camera are you using?

What is the image size you record it at on your camera and do you do any touching up in photoshop?

--Canon S80
--Max rez and quality, 3264 x 2448 pixels
--Yes, but I'm not very competent. Usually just Auto Contrast and sometimes Sharpen. Rotate, crop and resize, of course. A good crop can make all the difference.

3 more questions what water proof housing you using, how much did the housing cost.

And last you realize your camera has a movie mode, just for us here take a couple 10 sec shots of people dropping into pipe from your vantage point in the water.

Im sure Bud wouldnt mind posting a couple here for us to drool over.

--Canon makes a WP-DC1 housing specifically for the camera.
--Paid around $200 I think.
--I know. I'm a still image guy and I honestly didn't want to waste opportunities to get video clips. I think can get 640x480 at 30 fps or 1024x768 at 15 fps. Something about the zoom--gotta be wide out or not moving.

Some of the things I've seen have been amazing... Another of my favorites from that day.
