As most of you probably know, I’ve recently purchased the Canon 5D MkII and have been playing around with the HD video features of the camera. The quality of the recordings it captures is quite astonishing as you can see here.

This is just a quick edit I have put together as I don’t have much more footage to play with at the moment. Over the coming weeks I will be traveling around Perth capturing some more footage and I will extend the length of this film.

Thanks for viewing,

Beau Mitchell

I have wanted to shoot this angle of Perth including the Decoy for a while now, and the other night I finally got off my ass and drove down to South Perth. I think it might be better at sunrise, so I’ll have to return here early one morning, maybe over this coming week if any other Perth photographers wants to join me?

It’s a 7 photo stitch with the 5D MkII and 50mm lens. It came out at about 60″ at 300dpi, which will allow for a generous sized print.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my photographs!

I have put together a few short clips from my last few weeks with the Canon 5D MkII. I have no idea how to edit video footage, but just thought I’d share this anyway.

The footage is from:
Nerang River, Gold Coast, QLD
Springbrook National Park, Gold Coast, QLD
Perth, WA
Wategoes Beach, Byron Bay, NSW
Brindle Creek, Border Ranges, NSW

After 7 months of living on the Gold Coast I’ve once again made the move across the country back to Perth. This is from my first shoot over this side of the country with the Canon 5D MkII. On a calm evening like this one you will get some great reflections of the city lights looking across the Swan River to the Perth City skyline from the Sir James Mitchell Park in South Perth.

After trekking through the Brindle Creek rain forest track for a couple of hours taking photographs of the creeks and trees, Emily and I moved further around the mountain to the Pinnacle Lookout.

The Pinnacle Lookout is located in the Border Ranges National Park in Northern New South Wales and is only a short walk from the main road that loops around the mountain. On this particular day I was pretty lucky with the cloud formations.

Shortly after taking this photo we crashed Emily’s car into a tree and wrote it off. Luckily neither of us were injured too badly.
