Another example of snowboarding taking inspiration from skateboarding can be found in the form of the Sony VX-1000 video camera. Sure we are in the HD world now but many a great shred flick was filmed on this bad boy. With a 3CCD or 3 chip as many would drop when talking cameras and the ability to fit the widest fish eye on the market no wounder many a film guy jumped on this camera.
Like so many items today this camera is making a retro comeback for the films that want a raw, non slow mo, keeping it real feel. Sure it isn't HD but when a hammer is dropped who cares about format.
Hit ebay now and pick one up as like anything these days once the blog world gets on the board prices will go up.
Check out the Brainstorm teaser from 01/02, now who much was shot on a Vx-1000 who cares this is just an all time shred film.
