Still motion

October 31, 2008

We formed a DTE New Media team a couple of months ago. The intent is to create ‘extra’ content from stories in Down to Earth, for the web via photos, audio, video and sometimes a fusion of all these mediums. The team currently has only a single permanent member, Lavanya. She’s been churning out stuff over the last few weeks, conceiving, researching, editing and designing.

This last film, shot by Meeta, our new recruit photographer, and Lavanya, over a period of 8 hours, from the top of a building at Connaught Place with a Nikon D300 digital SLR. Lavanya then put together the 1500 odd still images to create this film.

Hey, where did we go

October 22, 2008

The picture above is of the actual camera and lens, with their respective boxes.

The camera and lens are is in perfect, mint condition, and has been rarely used. It is not a grey market product, and has been legitimately purchased with all papers and warranty from the USA. The item will be delivered with original box and packaging.

Why am I selling?

Seems the D90 is more suited to my needs…and I already have another D300.

The price?

Camera body – Rs.70,000/-, Lens – Rs.25,000/-, Combo – Rs.95,000/-

Sadly, cannot ship it to anywhere. So delivery will have to be in New Delhi, India

The ghost bamboo is now taller than our house. The young tree soaks in the mellow autumn sun at its highest point
