Shot on RED Epics this film captures a huge south swell that rolled in to the infamous surf spot Teahupoo.
On Tuesday morning at 6am, the first jetskis pulled up at Teahupoo to meet a new swell that many had been tracking for some time. It was around six to eight feet, paddleable, and kinda perfect. By lunch time it'd picked up to 13ish feet. And by afternoon, there were 20 foot sets rolling through.
The still photos of the session are stunning. The film is equally impressive.
Neumann Films have made this film available to showcase 1080p footage from the Canon MKIII using the Magic Lantern hack.
Magic Lantern is an open platform for developing enhancements to industry DSLR's. This morning after porting the ability to record short bursts of RAW to the Canon 5D MKIII, the developers have done the seemingly impossible and given us a continuous raw recording mode on the Canon 5D Mark III.

The image is leaps and bounds ahead of any other DSLR. We’re talking Alexa / Red league here, yet full frame. The first ever raw video shooting full frame camera at that. I’m getting continuous recording at a data rate to the card of 90MB/s and the camera hardly breaks into a sweat.

Bill Bennet ASC, shoots this Audi commercial which was shot with a special version of the Arri Alexa camera that is only sensitive to light in the infrared part of the spectrum, with wavelengths longer than 800 nanometers.
The images were recorded to a Codex on-board recorder in the ArriRaw format. They were then converted using a special version of the Arri Raw Converter software, optimized for the monochrome infrared images.
Mattebox by Ben Syverson is an iOS engineered app that is based on the Konica Hexar.
With that in mind, I modeled Mattebox after the legendary Konica Hexar, a luxury point and shoot which is powerful enough for the professional photographer, yet easy enough for the complete beginner. With amazing image quality, intelligent controls and a clear, beautiful viewfinder, it’s easy to see why the Hexar still has a fanatical following.
The App can be downloaded here.
