Hi guys!
Although this is my first post, I've actually been reading the forums for about a week now. The reason I haven't posted a single post until now is because all the threads have been so informative that I've never really needed to ask anything. Yet, anyways.
I'm currently researching equipment and just developing and playing around with ideas in my head. Hopefully I'll be able to save the money needed for some decent equipment by next spring or summer or so, and finally get around to actually filming something.
I'm planning on shooting not only short narratives but also skating, skiing and snowboarding which makes choosing my camera harder. I'd like to go for the Panasonic GH1 or the Canon 5D Mark II because of the cinematic look and feel they deliver. My problem is that a DSLR probably will be a bad choice for shooting longer skate or ski runs.
Also, if somebody has any experience of shooting skating or skiing I'd love to hear (and see!) about it!
