Thnx Folks

John it's a Lumenera Skynyx2-0. This is a hi-res black and white camera that allows me to capture up to 60 frames per second. This helps capture the seeing during it's steady periods. Theyre quite expensive but the new series of DMK cameras seem to do the same job for about half the price (EU400)

Stunning shot. I mean, even thought the proninence is small, your shot has an amazing sense of depth and 3D to it Dave. Cracker.

This is a hi-res black and white camera


How do you get colour? Hardly LRGB I'd've thought. Is it synthesised?
