Not so camera-shy Boxster...

Again, my Box-mobil ended up having a small part in this silly video:

Music!

Nice camera rig Peer!

I really dig that music (Caravan)! Whose rendition? If you haven't heard it check out the up tempo rendition from Cuban piano player Chucho Valdes.

Yep, this version is a little nugget -- Duke Ellington with Max Roach and Charles Mingus. The Duke was more versatile than many think, not the least comparing this loose & punky version of Caravan to the more famous one he did. I have four versions of Caravan; two by the Duke, a fast live one by Dave Brubeck, and then the Maynard Ferguson (w/ Buddy Rich). So now I've to check out the Valdes' one -- thanks for the recommendation.

Very nice indeed - looks like a 5D mkII maybe? You have a very nice collection of lenses etc. to go with it!

I have a more modest setup with a Canon T1i and a couple of L series lenses too. Where did you get the rig with the rails, follow focus and all? I have been looking at the Red Rock stuff but it seems a little pricey.... http://www.redrockmicro.com/

Looks like you are also using an external audio recorder with a mic and windscreen. Which recorder are you using?

You should be able to take some very nice cinematic looking footage with that rig - cheers!

Yes to most all of the above -- I even use some RedRock parts.
