The video is a compilation of some of the footage I shot while there. Some of the other shots are in lockdown by the client so I used what I could to create this video. I spent 4 days shooting in Iceland and 6 days shooting in Greenland. Greenland locations include the Kangerlussuaq, Ilulissat, Ilimanaq, Ilulissat Ice Fjord, Russell Glacier, Greenland Icecap, and Disko Bay. Iceland locations include the South Coast, Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Kirkjufell, and Grundarfjörður.All footage was shot in super high resolution 4K Ultra HD.

10328x7760 - A 10K Timelapse Demo Joe Capra 2015-02-14 | "10328x7760 - A 10K Timelapse Demo" is a video I put together showcasing the extreme resolution of the PhaseOne IQ180 camera of which it was shot. This footage comes from some shots I did while shooting 4K and 8K timelapses in Rio De Janeiro for a major electronics manufacturer. Each shot is comprised of hundreds individual still images, each weighing in at a whopping 80 megapixels. Each individual raw frame measures 10328x7760 pixels.Each shot was very minimally processed and included curves, input sharpening, saturation adjustments. The h264 compression really kills alot of the fine detail. No noise reduction was done on any of the shots. I tried to keep the shots as close to raw as possible so you may see some dust spots, noise, and manual exposure changes I made while shooting. For a final video edit these adjustments would be smoothed out and fixed. Normally I run shots where I manually change exposure during the shot through LRTimelapse, but unfortunately the program can't seem to handle such huge raw files. I also had to loop some shots in order to have enough runtime to do some zooms, so you may see a jump in the footage here and there.Each shot sequence starts off with the full resolution footage scaled down to fit within a 1920x1080 resolution (14% scale). The next shot in each shot sequence is the full resolution shot scaled to 50%, so basically zooming in quite a bit. From there we go into the full resolution shot scaled to 100%, which is an extreme zoom/crop. As you can see, the quality and detail holds up extremely well, it’s pretty amazing.I wanted to show a couple things with this demo video. First, the extreme resolution of this camera (and medium format in general). Second, the amazing amount of flexibility this resolution allows for in post production. You can literally get about 8-10 solid 1920x1080 shots out of a single shot. You can also get about 5-6 solid 4K shots out of a single shot.If you enjoyed this demo videos please feel free to pass it around and share it.

This video is a compilation of some of the footage I shot there. Most of the locations are within the city of Rio De Janeiro, but I also traveled to the famous Iguazú Falls on the border of the Brazilian state of Paraná and the Argentinian province of Misiones. In 2011 Iguazú Falls was announced as one of the seven winners of the New Seven Wonders of Nature by the New Seven Wonders of the World Foundation.RIO DE JANEIRONo wonder the beautiful city of Rio De Janeiro was chosen to host the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics. Rio de Janeiro, or simply Rio, is the capital city of the State of Rio de Janeiro, the second largest city of Brazil, and the third largest metropolitan area and agglomeration in South America, boasting approximately 6.3 million people within the city proper. Part of the city has been designated as a World Heritage Site, named "Rio de Janeiro: Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea", identified by UNESCO in the category Cultural Landscape.Rio de Janeiro is one of the most visited cities in the southern hemisphere and is known for its natural settings, carnival celebrations, samba, Bossa Nova, balneario beaches such as Barra da Tijuca, Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon. Some of the most famous landmarks in addition to the beaches include the giant statue of Christ the Redeemer ("Cristo Redentor") atop Corcovado mountain, named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World; Sugarloaf mountain (Pão de Açúcar) with its cable car; the Sambódromo, a permanent grandstand-lined parade avenue which is used during Carnival; and Maracanã Stadium, one of the world's largest football stadiums.I hope you enjoy the video!Camera Gear:Canon 5DIIICanon 5DIIPhaseOne IQ180Various Canon lensesMusic By: Jan Baumann - baumann-musik.deSpecial thanks to:My production assistant José Olímpio ( joseolimpio.com ).

RIO (Trailer) Joe Capra 2012-10-02 | A few months ago I was sent to Rio De Janeiro by a client to shoot some timelapse of this amazing city. This is a short trailer I put together for a new video called "RIO" that I will be releasing in the next couple months. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed shooting it. Stay tuned for the final short film.If you want to follow my future photographic events you can find me at:Twitter (twitter.com/scientifantasti)Facebook (facebook.com/pages/Scientifantastic/163137190447579)Google+ (gplus.to/scientifantastic)Vimeo (vimeo.com/scientifantastic)500px (500px.com/scientifantastic)Music By: The Three Corners of The EarthSong: Fire Shall Devour ThemBuy it on iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/album/fire-shall-devour-them-single/id423338811
Scenes From Niceland Joe Capra 2012-02-14 | This short video is comprised of all the video footage I shot while in Iceland while my cameras were not being used for timelapse and still photography. This video was shot entirely on the Canon 5DII. I also created a timelapse video from the trip titled "Midnight Sun | Iceland" which can be viewed here vimeo.com/30581015This short time lapse film was shot during the Icelandic Midnight Sun in June of 2011. Locations include Jokusarlon, Budir, Landmannalaugar, Godafoss, Lake Myvatn, Vik, Dyrholaey, and many more.For 17 days I travelled solo around the entire island shooting almost 24 hours, sleeping in the car, and eating whenever I had the time. During my days shooting in Iceland I shot 38,000 images, travelled some 2900 miles, and saw some of the most amazing, beautiful, and indescribable landscapes on the planet. Iceland is absolutely one of the most beautiful and unusual places you could ever imagine. Especially during the Midnight Sun when the quality of light hitting the landscape is very unusual, and very spectacular.Iceland is a landscape photographers/cinematographers paradise and playground, and should be number 1 on every photographers must visit list. Iceland during the Midnight Sun is in sort of a permanent state of sunset. The sun never full sets and travels horizontally across the horizon throughout the night. During the Arctic summer, sunset was at midnight and sunrise was at 3am. The Arctic summer sun provided 24 hours a day of light, with as much as 6 hours daily of "Golden light". Once the sun had set it wouldn't even get dark enough for the stars to come out, and they don't start to reappear until August.My advice to everyone out there, photographer or not, is simple... You MUST visit Iceland sometime during your lifetime. You will never regret it.If you want to follow my future photographic events you can find me at:Google+ (gplus.to/scientifantastic)Twitter (twitter.com/scientifantasti)Vimeo (vimeo.com/scientifantastic)Facebook (facebook.com/pages/Scientifantastic/163137190447579)500px (500px.com/scientifantastic)Cameras and Lenses:2 Canon 5DII DSLR cameras1 Canon 7DVarious Canon lensesMusic by Sigur Ros Song: "Saeglopur"Website: sigur-ros.co.ukBuy It on iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/artist/sigur-ros/id73720797Special Thanks to:REYKJAVIK RENT A CAR (reykjavikrentacar.is/)Dynamic Perception (dynamicperception.com) Jag35 (jag35.com) Kessler Crane (kesslercrane.com) LRTimelapse (lrtimelapse.com)Timescapes (timescapes.org)Michael Levy Studio (typolover.com) for his Icelandic eROADBOOK (typolover.com/_travel/iceland_2009/iceland_days_index.htm)
