I shot the video. The Pentax cameras actually proved a challenge because the shutters are so well dampened. The Pentax you see has audio from a pitched down D700. We've always been big Pentax fans.

Bravo! That was a really creative ad and very well executed

Am I on the right track?

That's really what I was going for... that and the fact that I forgot to change it to burst mode for the first shoot, then decided I liked it like that and kept it there.

I'm glad to of been able to represent Pentax during the battle at F-Stop Ridge.

Thought you said it was a pitched down 5d ? Anyway, both good shutter sounds.

Pentax shutters are incredibly well dampened, love it for my wildlife photography.

Very nice work, Jordan. The color (or lack thereof) was really what struck me as taking this great idea to the next visual level. All black and tan and overcast...

Here's a video on the making of the ad.
