Photographer and pilot Luke Bakhuizen has partnered with tech giant Sony to promote thier new 4K Action Camera. One of his first videos for the promotion was filmed in Cape Town, South Africa. Bakhuizen used an electronic gimbal with the Sony Action Camera attached behind his paraglider. This allowed him to capture perfectly stable footage for social media promotion.
Luke Bakhuizen built the device that houses the Sony 4K action camera, which is believed to be the only system of its kind. Unlike other paragliding chase cameras, this product is far different. It has an electronic stabilization device to allow the camera to record “drone-like” smooth footage. One impressive feature is the aesthetic and responsive design. The arrow with a gimbal and Sony 4k action camera is attached to the rear lines of the paraglider and held back by a windsock.
What’s even more interesting about the 4K Action Camera is that it can be remotely activated via Wi-Fi. It can be set to record at specific times during the flight. Bakhuizen is further developing the chase camera product to sell on the market with the help of an experienced engineer. He produced a promotional video for Sony using the chase camera gibal system and posted it on Instagram where it received more than 390,000 views. With the fascinating shots and unique photos, Bakhuizen has been contracted to produce more videos for Sony via his Instagram profile.
Luke Bakhuizen uses custom chase camera design to capture exciting and majestic shots. This is specially tailored to avid travelers who dream to catch a perfect photo during paragliding. This allows all adventurous enthusiasts to take the shots of their goals.
