Vincent Laforet: "Creativity in surfing is the opportunity to express oneself on a wave. Surfing is nothing but the physical extension of ones ability to explore that realm between land and sea. Being free to do it without the constraints of commercial endeavor or competitive goals creates true freedom of expression. Somewhere between the land and the sea Jamie tries the other side, switching his feet around on take off, choosing the opposite stance, then midway, switches back as if to say I can do whatever I like. Jamie embodies the term free surfer.
The best thing about watching, let alone filming, Jamie - is the privilege of seeing someone do something so beautiful, so difficult, so effortlessly. The last time I saw something like this on such a regular basis was when I photographed Michael Jordan at the United Center in Chicago for his last 3 years on the court.
This shot was made with a Canon 500mm f4 - on a RED One at 100 frames per second at 2K using the Wicked Circuits EF Lens Adapter. Thats the equivalent of a 1600mm on a 35mm camera. Big thanks to Mike Isler for the focus pull and spotting."

that's awesome!!!! Did you have to use the lens wide open all the time? Meaning how did you control the iris on the EF lens manually? I use FD lenses on the S16mm cams I have as I can control the iris on the lens. Is there a way to control the iris of an EF lens through the RED menu??
