I've used a 0.43x fisheye for years (which originally cost £49.99), and much to the hate of users on here! :) I purchased a wide/tele lens kit just before the end of last year, and that consisted of a 0.5 Wide and 0.2x Tele lens - this was £59.99. The 0.5 is great, you can get lots in your frame and not have any distortion at all! 0.2 tele was used in TM1 some, that was the one with extreme vig-netting on it (the black ring). Dont use it that often though. BUT, if you want ultra wide, go for summot slightly less than 0.5 cos the less you go, the more you gain so to speak - cos u get more depth of field and therefore more in your frame/viewfinder. IF you've got the big bucks, this is to anybody btw, Century Optics make a version of their Death Lens (which is used for nearly all sk8 videos) for single chip cameras, i.e. all the cameras linked to so far on this page - they usually have 30 to 37mm threads on the camera - hehe, and this retails at £675 - at least thats how much it was when I contacted them last year! Nice to know theres that option! :) But yea, 0.43 for REALLY wide angle or just 0.5 for all round useability! :) Jonny.

Loved it Ross! I thought the riding was awesome from everybody and Andy in the massive glasses and baseball cap peeping out of his car just left me pissing myself! Minted work! Jonny.

Well, like most students, I dont have a lot of money to drive to exotic locations. The video and 'that wall' is in Farnham, which is where I live, plus it was only an experimental video type thing. Personally I was really chuffed with the line down the q-pipe to manual to that box - usually I would sidehop onto the fun box thing, but somebody had put that box there randomly, so I thought it linked nicely... clearly I was wrong! I know it's only an opinion dude, but does EVERY video have to have mind blowing riding in? Im sure you're like me, you want to go riding, everybody else is at work etc, and the only place you can really get to is local stuff. I do this quite often.. let off some steam.. get some exercise... Trials to me really isnt all about going higher than the guy over there, its just about chilling for an hour or so... at least thats what Trials during the week is to me! Thank you for all the other comments, glad most people liked it! Over and out! Jonny. P.S. - Open your minds :P :D

The DVD it was based on made me make this video cos I simply love the DVD itself... if that makes sense? Its an 'experimental documentary' - you have to watch it to see what I mean - it's like a film, but it IS a documentary. We were introduced to it at Uni and we only watched the beginning... and never watched the rest, so I managed to get it from the States, £9 I think it was! The wet farts... well, weren't. Those sounds were used as a visual/sound transition between the normal progress of the documentary to this hand-held video recorder used by one of the characters - these recorders had a seperate tape deck that you wore round your shoulder and captured pretty poor quality images, well, they were considered amazing back in 1979, where the story is based. Its just a really odd documentary! But dont worry, all 'normal' videos will resume shortly haha :P Thanks for the comments! Jonny.

Just wondering if there's any more comments :D Plenty of views, but not that many replies :P Jonny.

YBT2 video rules! Like trialsmad (Br3n) said, too much template! Get your hands a copy of Photoshop from somewhere and spend a couple of hours experimenting. You can slice up a design you're happy with, add links, then upload to your sever! Minted! But yea, good effort has gone into the content! Sweet! Jonny.

I did edit it yes. Fair enough dude. :P Jonny.

Sorry to disappoint(sp), but we all know im not the most amazing rider in the world! But thanks man :P Jonny.

Hi people, OK, felt like making a short new video last night, so I went out for a short ride locally and put together frankly the scariest video I think ive ever made.. it uses extracts from a DVD I imported from the States about an American film maker suffering from Cancer, its a documentary with a twist... and this new video of mine is most certainly Trials with a twist! ALL comments welcomed as usual, im sure some people wont understand it, but there's nothing to really understand, it's experimental and just something a bit different! http://www.trialmedia.co.uk Thanks! Jonny.

OK cool, I probably will go with the 1000mm wheelbase. Cant wait really, just gotta save! Jonny.

Phil, im about 5ft 6, so wat wheelbase would be best for me? Jonny.

Cool, so we just need to ask Carl the necessary... like where he registered the domain? I know what your bandwidth gets like Si, so do you want me to host it... completely up to you! :) Jonny.

OK, no worries, ive added it anyway! :P Jonny.

Ahh right, I'll have to ask them about it then... anybody know Grangers msn or email address? Jonny.

Well, trialmedia has taken on the theory behind the movement, but I could never be so cheeky as to say 'trialmedia is now fluffybunnymovement.co.uk' - cos you can't replace the real thing. Jonny.

Afternoon, Im not sure who registered the domain (most likely DJ himself), and I think John Granger was hosting it, but what really happened to fluffybunnymovement.co.uk? Im guessing, like I said on my site, that the domain expired?.. or maybe the hosting did? But, I think it would be awesome to get it back online. I was asked to look after it, but I can't do that unless I know what happened to it? If it simply needs hosting, I can sort that no problem what so ever! Can anybody shed (sp) any light on the situation? Jonny.

I thought the video was as good as you could get it, the frame rate seemed to be all over the place, did you film it on a digital camera with video abilities? Wasn't bad at all, but obviously things need improving, I dont need to tell you wat they are :P Jonny.

:( I wish I was as good as Matt! Seriously, lines we all struggle with in London, Matt does without even bloody trying, hes such a star :) :( Mint video, and Adam, sorry for getting in the way of the camera, kick me next time! Jonny.

naa, £72 I believe a month? Still, bloody expensive! Its pure love of the sport and media.. thats how I could justify to myself Simon spending that much on us per month! Jonny.

Christ, thats a bloody good point! :blink: Jonny.

Ahh ok, I would have thought its just a normal apache server, that can run any files. Here's hoping at least. Jonny.

I loved that! Such a change from full on videos. Thought it was nice to have pure riding clips put together nicely. Some nice angles and, frankly, shit-hot riding! Nice one Zoo! peeps! Jonny,

Might be a problem for maybe 80% of people on here, it doesn't say they welcome MPEG-1 videos, i.e. the normal .mpg videos people post on here, this includes me. But im 110% happy with Simon's efforts, so I doubt I'll touch Google... but thats just me, each to their own :blink: Jonny.

Yea it was - people described it as a gun basically, but yea, twas a Super 8 Cine camera - made in about 1974 I think, so its proper old skool, gotta love it though! Love it cos it makes the proper cine noise, like the Chilli Video intro on Chainspotting etc. Jonny.

AWESOME!! Love that dude! Always original, thats wat I like about you!! ;) Jonny.
