Tilt/Shift + Canon 5D Mark II + Zoom H4n + Windsurfing Hookipa, Maui

[Abraham Prince]

http://www.vimeo.com/8161506Welcome to the world famous Hookipa beach located on Maui’s North shore. Windsurfers from all over the world flock here for yearly contests, events and a chance to rip this legendary break apart. People from all over the world can be seen here and as always it just adds to the beautiful melting pot of culture that make Maui, Maui.
I had a lot of fun making this video as it was my first venture into tilt/shift, well sorta as I wasn’t using a traditional tilt/shift lens that fits on my 5d2 but instead, a lens made for large format film photography covered with a t-shirt.
Anyhow, I hope you all enjoy the little windsurfers : )

I liked the video and the music. Some different angles would have helped immensely though, that's a really long time to linger on the same angle.

Why would you use a tilt shift lens for a static shot though? Isn't that kind of like using a prime lens for a zoom shot?
