A MagicBand Story

[fractal]

My son and I started a YouTube channel based on Disney World and photography tips while visiting there. We just returned and he's been busy editing and putting together a number of short videos. This (and the other videos) were all shot on the NEX-7 with the SEL 10-18 f/4.

That's great! The editing on that was very good! And I see you already have a bunch of videos up on the Fractal Channel... great way to start - with a bunch of content. I'm... inspired.

For what Disney's charging these days, that band should have Rolex branding.


Nice job on the video. Congratulate your son.

Very nice introduction video! Like the music choice.

another video from our Walt Disney World trip. I filmed this on the A7rii. We were on the safari during a rain storm which prompted the elephants to head into the water and play.

There's a baby elephant in there you can see "swimming" under the water with it's truck above the water. I thought it was pretty cool.

I have to share this. After the safari it was still pouring. I'm talking torrential downpour. My son and I had to run about 100 yards to get into a gift shop for cover. I had my A7rii in a camera bag protected but he had my NEX-7 in his hand. It got soaked with the 10-18 lens on it. I was expecting it to be dead.

To my pleasant surprise the camera showed no ill effects. My NEX-7, especially recently, has been rather abused. It's been on the beach several times, in rain (including this downpour), dropped, and bumped more times than I'd like to recall. She still works like a charm. A bit slower here and there but I'm pushing 200,000 photos on it. Maybe it's the magnesium body but I've been very impressed with its durability.

Very cool Chris. Nice job with the editing

Thanks Gary, but the credit for that video goes to my son who is light years ahead of me on Photoshop.
