At a time there was only GoPro Hero 2 available with no timelapse or timer. DJI released their first Phantom I only in 2013. So yeah, now you can be all fancy, but back in a dayzz people had to be creative.
TheSuperGamer actually you're wrong "One of the first recorded uses was by Austrians in July 1849 after they launched around two hundred pilotless balloons mounted with bombs against the city of Venice." Plus it says "The CIA had been flying unarmed drones over Afghanistan since 2000" also when my friend and I were in high school they had rc helicpters, so you're wrong, if you wanted to be technical about it since you did
I think beside a photographer, Kai is actually an implied troller. xD Sometimes I imagine him reading all these comments and complaints and he will just simply laugh on it. Haha LOL
If you are gonna try, at least put a small parachute on.. it will help the camera facing down and also help it land slower so you can catch it...Make sure you toss it high enough though..
let me try this with my 5D M III and my Sigma 35mm Art :D Edit: yea, made that comment before seeing him toss his 5D M III. i don't feel so cool anymore.
I love the idea of treating such objects as playthings Marion Deleon :) Kind of undermines the attachment to material items we tend to nurture ! I was laughing throughout :)
I was freaking out the whole time while watching this!! This was scarier than watching a video that's actually meant to scare you lol! Nice work though! I've never even began to think of doing this you're so brave! Love your video's too, very entertaining and helpful all in one ^_^
First, let me just say that yours is by far the most entertaining and informative photography channel on youtube, and I always enjoy your videos. That being said, if I ever saw somebody taking a perfectly good DSLR and throwing it into the air, I would run up to them and kick them in the junk.
"Pentax is shit, Pentax is shit!" You have me rolling!!! They surely aren't the best, but I still use my PZ-10 SLR from the early 90s and it still gets some damn good shots. Been on 3 Aircraft Carriers too. Durable, yes. Professional quality, maybe their new DSLRs.
Jasenko Stojakovic They most likely got it from ebay or amazon, but sometimes a brand like nikon give out dummies so 3rd party brands can make things for it
Jasenko Stojakovic this is the exact one they used in the video. costs $23.50 www.dinowish.com/stores/buybay004/unique-simulation-dummy-canon-dslr-camera-coin-bank-p-13853.html
"Hopefully this doesn't fail, because we'll have to go to Hasselblad next." Good enough for NASA to take to the moon, good enough for Kai and his monsoons.
I don't know, but i felt nothing even watching kai tossed the 5D mark III, i already immune to all kai's carelessness, the feeling of "ah he's gonna break it anyway" is way too strong. I'm not crying, not anymore.
And this what I imagine will happen to my camera, when people I know asks to borrow my way less cheaper a6000 to use it per example at a baptism of some unknown nephew, then immediately I answer "No sorry my camera it's only for personal use" lmao
They are company property. DigitalRev is an online store specialising in photography equipment. Kai and the others are employed to make these videos because some of the attention might spill over to the online shop.
Did anyone else's heart jump every time he threw the camera?
yes the whole time I'm like why don't you just use a monopod or something?!
Que Tip Well i'm pretty sure I won't be doing that with my camera anytime soon. :P
Audible_Savage i hold my breath almost on a whole video
Audible_Savage lol...we shared the same feeling
Audible_Savage I don't know. It's just a Canon.
"Those were trees...Now they're just pretending to be bushes, pretentious bastards' xD
that was a great dialogue, wasnt it!!!
lol yes it was!
I laughed out loud, unscripted that was perfect timing and delivery
lol
this is one of your ideas i will not be trying
lol just get a drone lol
Why you need a quadcopter with GoPro, when you can toss a 5D MKIII with 22mm and fish-eye teleconverter!
good point xD
Because it's 2012.
Was
At a time there was only GoPro Hero 2 available with no timelapse or timer. DJI released their first Phantom I only in 2013. So yeah, now you can be all fancy, but back in a dayzz people had to be creative.
"A cheap lens that I don't mind breaking"
*Breaks it immediately*
How to be a Camera Tosser:
Step 1: Get a GoPro
Vedant Vohra or just use a really really long selfie stick.....
+Krishna Doshi i have a dirty joke in mind :')
+Vedant Vohra (VDizzL3) put the gopro on a drone
+eksine they didn't have drones in 2012, but yes, nowadays that would work.
TheSuperGamer actually you're wrong "One of the first recorded uses was by Austrians in July 1849 after they launched around two hundred pilotless balloons mounted with bombs against the city of Venice."
Plus it says "The CIA had been flying unarmed drones over Afghanistan since 2000"
also when my friend and I were in high school they had rc helicpters, so you're wrong, if you wanted to be technical about it since you did
for someone saving up for a nice DSLR this hurt.... a lot
Yeah 100%
+Music Core I know how you feel. btw your comment was posted a year ago...did you get a camera yet?
Music Core my dslr is 500$ and I'm a kid this made me cringe
If that was me i would never do that
Kai: Smashes 10 1.00$ cameras, laughs
Me: Smash tv remote, i cry
5d mark 3 in camera tossing? BALLSY AS FUCK!
I cringed every single time the camera left his hands.
I think beside a photographer, Kai is actually an implied troller. xD
Sometimes I imagine him reading all these comments and complaints and he will just simply laugh on it. Haha LOL
This makes me feel so much better about how my cameras have aged
Damn - respect for having the guts to throw/catch them in the rain.
Where is the temple in the closing shots?
I absolutely died when the lens broke 😂😂😂
If you are gonna try, at least put a small parachute on.. it will help the camera facing down and also help it land slower so you can catch it...Make sure you toss it high enough though..
let me try this with my 5D M III and my Sigma 35mm Art :D
Edit: yea, made that comment before seeing him toss his 5D M III. i don't feel so cool anymore.
Oh sh*t, I think it's broken *Throws it up 4 more times*
I'm only ten seconds in and I can tell Kai is going to do something dumb...
this episode was painful to watch
my heart D:
guys don't do this please
They already do it.....
ThefurroxFox FoxX i'm talking to the viewers. :)
@@hamskw HAHAHA
NOW WE CAN USE GOPRO OR OSMO ACTION! TIME CHANGE
Full marks for being so creative. I wouldn't buy a camera second hand from you though ...!
Haha, watching Alamby wrestle with the umbrella in the gale force rain was funny! =P Bless her!
Oh...this is so funny..can't stop the laughter...you too are a man of laughter and good will...Steven.
I love the idea of treating such objects as playthings Marion Deleon :) Kind of undermines the attachment to material items we tend to nurture ! I was laughing throughout :)
I honestly had to close my eyes for some of the parts. Too hard to watch
I was freaking out the whole time while watching this!! This was scarier than watching a video that's actually meant to scare you lol! Nice work though! I've never even began to think of doing this you're so brave! Love your video's too, very entertaining and helpful all in one ^_^
Now we know that a GoPro might have give away better results.
LOL free shower and a drink hahahahahahahahaha
😅😅👍👍
This video is a very good of a heart therapy
KAI! WAHT ARE YOU DOING?!?
KAI! STAHP IT!!!!
1:26 WHOOOOAAAA
1:31AHHHHHHH
1:36AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
1:51 *GASP*
1:54 WHAAAAT?!?!
2:06 UGGGHHHHHHHNNNNNNNN
I could barely stand watching this.... It was heart stopping D:
DUDE that sound when changing the focus gives me chills! Stop breaking it
Or y'know, you could get a drone
in 2012? DJI released first drone Phantom I in 2013. And it had GoPro attached.
First, let me just say that yours is by far the most entertaining and informative photography channel on youtube, and I always enjoy your videos. That being said, if I ever saw somebody taking a perfectly good DSLR and throwing it into the air, I would run up to them and kick them in the junk.
he should've done this with a leica....much smaller lenses and easier to catch........XD
"Pentax is shit, Pentax is shit!" You have me rolling!!! They surely aren't the best, but I still use my PZ-10 SLR from the early 90s and it still gets some damn good shots. Been on 3 Aircraft Carriers too. Durable, yes. Professional quality, maybe their new DSLRs.
can anyone tell me where i can buy that dummy camera?
Jasenko Stojakovic They most likely got it from ebay or amazon, but sometimes a brand like nikon give out dummies so 3rd party brands can make things for it
Jasenko Stojakovic this is the exact one they used in the video. costs $23.50 www.dinowish.com/stores/buybay004/unique-simulation-dummy-canon-dslr-camera-coin-bank-p-13853.html
Loaf3r thanks man
Jasenko Stojakovic it looks like its no longer available, but you can get them from somewhere else. I bought mine from the link i sent.
"That's okay because I have another camera"
haha sounds like it's okay to break a camera. 7:44
This video is 10 minutes of pure cringe
fo
Fo
"These used to be trees... Now they're just pretending to be bushes" lol
Just do it with a go pro you can toss it higher and it's easier to catch and u can just hit record and take a sill from it later
There's one thing for certain, you can't deny that this was an entertaining video
5d pics are too bad 80mp phase one pless
Its not about the camera but the photographer, for an experiment not bad really
Exceptional Perception it was a joke :)
Oh... *Scratches head* I.. knew that... Heh
damn it!!!!!! this must be the bestest photography channel evaarr!! I'm subscribing NOW!!!
I wonder how much money Kai earns, haha!! Must be very expensive tossing cameras around dropping them and stuff!! =O
the most nerve wrecking DigitalRev video ever!
why? the pictures are obviously going to be shit!
I'd recommend watching the actual video before critiquing it.
+Erkica Platz They would be shit with a phone camera, but with a correctly configured DSLR it is completely different.
+Byron Hansen errr i did, that's why I commented!
+abattlescar no
Agreed
This is the quintessential 'only on DigitalRev' video!
Use a gopro that's what I do
And I got even more chills when he just stood out there in the rain with that camera not even trying to protect it from the water.. ugh
So cringe. Oh god why
c r i n g e
"Look! These used to be trees! Now their just pretending to be bushes!" Ha ha ha!!
spoiled kai kid...poor result... Should try with a gopro
Is there some sort of gimmicky sphere/cushion case accessory just for camera tossing?
really funny to destroy and play with cameras while i try like maniac to save some money for a desent one!!! dislike
Clayton 1912 If it is the case that the cameras he used were fake, then that begs the question; how did he get the shots shown at the end?
every time that camera leaves his hand my heart skips a beat.
Get your groove on soldier. These men work hard and play harder.
DigitalRev is the Top Gear of Photography
"Hopefully this doesn't fail, because we'll have to go to Hasselblad next." Good enough for NASA to take to the moon, good enough for Kai and his monsoons.
Had 3 Heart Attacks in a row and about 2 strokes. The scariest 11:30 minutes in my life :D
This is like a new form of horror. Im filled with tension watchin this but i love it.
one of my favorite episodes.
WHEN HE BROKE THE LENS I DIED
Maybe, you should go back to spreading Vaseline on the lens.
It will probably look better too. ;-)
I don't know, but i felt nothing even watching kai tossed the 5D mark III, i already immune to all kai's carelessness, the feeling of "ah he's gonna break it anyway" is way too strong. I'm not crying, not anymore.
never had seen a stressfull video like this - so much adrenaline! xD
bringing innovation to a whole new level.
I was on edge watching the whole video !
The whole video makes my heart beat faster than normal...
I die everytime the camera drops on the floor
"Oh. Ther's a typhoon! Let's go out with shorts!" - Alamby
You are such a risk taker under a level 10 typhoon!!!!
My heart sank everytime you threw the camera.
Oh MY GAWD!!!
hehe you are tossing my dreams up in the air with wreckless abandon hehe
every time he tosses it up, I get a mini heart attack...
I cannot believe that you went to Sai Kung when the typhoon signal was raised! That typhoon was quite powerful to have many trees blown off.
holding my breath each time he tosses his camera up in the air
this guy is out of his mind !! I saved penny's for my 550D and I was cringing the whole time :o
I had never suffered this much in a DRTV video before!
From doing it with a 550D, its pretty neat when you set everything correct and focus to your feet
What kind of camera is being used to shoot the actual video?
Hey guys where do I get a fake foam DSLR like he was practicing with in the beginning?
Camera tossing + heavy Rain. dayum that is savage!
Every time he threw the 5D, my stomach rose then fell with the camera.
You know, this gave me an idea for new kind of sports photography. But like reasonable person, *I'M USING MY MONOPOD!*
Lok managed to keep the camera steady during the Typhoon!
Amazing!
I love how people get riled up over material things, love it.
I'm totally going to do this in my backyard tomorrow.
And this what I imagine will happen to my camera, when people I know asks to borrow my way less cheaper a6000 to use it per example at a baptism of some unknown nephew, then immediately I answer "No sorry my camera it's only for personal use" lmao
5:35 the best joke on this show!!
10:17 - Alamby's total trust of Kai is a beautiful thing
As soon as he said 5D Mark 3 I had a heart attack.
Who cares if the pictures are no good this video is great entertainment!
hi kai w
can i ask u What better between ؟
50mm G f1.8 or 50mm D f1.8 I want to buy one
can u help me plz
This one did a good job at trying to stop my heart beating.
every time the camera went up in the air I had a mini heart attack I swear
awesome vid. Love watching revolutionary photography
That was CRAZY! I'm glad it was your camera. I
hows this the one time kai doesn't drop the expensive kit?
