BNSF OCS In Stevens Pass (New Camera)
Вставка

- I got a message from a few friends that a BNSF Officer Car Special bound for Whitefish, Montana was going to make its way over Stevens Pass and BNSF's Scenic Subdivision in the morning hours of a warm Saturday in mid August.
Needing a new camera, I decided to rent Panasonic's HC-X2 Camcorder from lensrentals.com for one week to see how I liked it. The OCS just happened to depart Seattle during the week that I had the camera. Only having it for a week, I was still learning how to use it, so the footage isn't as professionally executed as I would have liked it to be, but this was, after all, just a trial run for me to get a feel of using a camcorder. So I hope you all Can still enjoy.

Great stuff!!!
Thank you!
What an awesome catch, and love the opening seen with the reflection of the bridge in the water, really cool! Man that bridge shot is just perfect, the water is perfect allowing a mirror image reflection, just really well done! That second shot is epic, all zoomed in and feels like the train is coming right at you, so awesome and love the slow pan up as it gets closer and closer! Top notch video as always, super pro work! Have a great night! -Ken
Thank you, Ken! I always appreciate your comments.
When did you shoot this? Big Eddy did NOT look like that on Saturday lol. The river is way up and there's an extra waterfall behind the left columns.
This was early August
