Climbing Everest - Shot on Panasonic EVA1

Cinematographer Karl Janisse worked with the new Panasonic EVA1 and the full kit of Sigma CINE Prime lenses to capture the climb of Everest’s 29029.

Participants had 36 hours to complete 17 summits and Karl was along for the ride with his team at Blackout Media.

"Working with the EVA1 was a dream. From the onset of this project we knew that any camera package we used would have to be lightweight, portable, ready for the elements and capable of pulling in a high resolution to give us breathing room in post production for doing movements that weren’t possible under the conditions. Climbing Stratton mountain 17 times over the course of 48hrs was no easy feat. The very lightweight body and built in stabilizer and NDs meant that we were able to keep the payload as low as possible for the climbs. Overall I think it fits perfectly between the compact but capable GH5 and the workhorse Varicam LT. We are so thankful to Panasonic Canada for allowing us to take the EVA1 on this adventure." - Karl Janisse, Cinematographer
