    For those of you asking about the GoPro lens distortion: I use the CC Lens effect in After Effects to remove it. You have to tweak the settings a bit, but it's pretty easy.

    • @aerofokus
      @aerofokus 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      which CC lens effect are you using exactly?..under distort ? Beautiful flying and framing btw ;)

    Well done Luke on being a worthy winner. It is also nice to see someone who is generous (and patient) in answering the comments, regardless of their merit in some cases!

    You, Sir.....are a freaking genius! Beautiful shots of a beautiful railroad! If you made a longer version I would not be disappointed!

    Absolutely incredible. I've been to Chama a dozen times and know the railroad very well, but I've never seen it like this. Amazing video!! Excellent choice of music.

    Absolutely fantastic! Amazing and beautiful footage. Congratulations.

  • @LukeFitch
    @LukeFitch  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes, that's a very similar gimbal for what I was using when this was shot. I did not have any FPV gear at the time, although now I fly with a 5.8ghz downlink and a small monitor and can get much better results.

    @USATCS200 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is absolutely astounding. The beauty of the train and the scenery are captured wonderfully by the cinematography and the music. As a railroader, I greatly approve of this use of remote control tech.

    One word comes to mind when experiencing this video, "Majestic".

  • @bbundridge
    @bbundridge 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Holy hell, YES, as some one in the steam locomotive industry, you captured this beautifully. Amazing job!

  • @manakin49
    @manakin49 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just happened to have taken this train 2 days after you apparently filmed this. The views from the train are stunning, but the aerial video you produced of the train itself going through the mountains is outstanding!

  • @jebstewart4721
    @jebstewart4721 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fantastic video. This is the first time I have seen video of the train at 10,000 feet around Windy Point. Thanks Luke.

    @richreynoldsiv9618 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just superb!...Phenomenal camera work and production quality. As a rail enthusiast and having ridden several times on that route it just max's out the sensation. It truly almost doesn't look real but I know it is. Kudos

    Who on earth can give this thumbs down? One of the most beautiful places on earth, with one of the most captivating machines on earth, with some of the most interesting history--and this video had footage that I've never seen before. VERY cool.

    Recently got a DJI myself.. this video motivates me to do something. I only watched this video about 10 times already, great shots, theatrical feel especially the music. Anyone know what the instrumental in the background is?

  • @rufuscoppertop330
    @rufuscoppertop330 11 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @21stCenturyLtd
    @21stCenturyLtd 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Fantastic stuff! I'm getting one of these myself to film trains from the air. Were you using a gimbal or anything else to absorb shock when you filmed this?

  • @grantwilson88
    @grantwilson88 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Amazing video. You helped make up my mind to buy a Phantom. Could you please let me know what a Gopro settings you used & also what settings you export your movie. Thanks heaps in advance.

    • @LukeFitch
      @LukeFitch  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! I usually set the GoPro to 1080p 60fps and either Narrow or Medium mode. This gives you the smoothest video, the least jello from prop vibration, and reduced fisheye-effect. However, if you balance your props and really fine-tune your system, it's also possible to get great results in 2.7k 24fps mode. As far as exporting goes, I always upload to TH-cam with a 1080p/24 MP4 file at a high bitrate. Hope that helps!

  • @LukeFitch
    @LukeFitch  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I do use a gimbal, and was flying a simple brushless one from eBay (Martinez board) when this was shot. Since then, DJI has been awesome enough to equip me with a Zenmuse H3-2D, and my hack-job Phantom has been sitting on a shelf ever since. If you can afford it, there's nothing else that even compares.

  • @LukeFitch
    @LukeFitch  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dude, thanks for releasing such an epic track as creative commons! The video wouldn't have been the same without it.

    Great video Daniel, I have seen helecopter shots up to Cumbres Pass that are not as good as this! You need to ride the train as it covers 64 miles and you have the first 14 in your video. Please do more!
