Chasing Trains on the Former Pan Am Railways [4K HDR]

With Pan Am recently folded into CSX things don't look much different yet, but the winds of change are coming.

Great stuff!!

[@NorfKhazad]

Thanks Clayton!

@@NorfKhazad I'll probably get rid of my GH5 rig this year and get a new S5 II - Ive been waiting for Panasonic to fix their auto focus.

@@claytonmoore2091 Looks like a fantastic camera for the money.

Excellent opening filming. I appreciate your filming only locomotives passing by. Watching a long freight train is boring Great job

[@NorfKhazad]

Thanks, I typically only include a whole train at the end of the video if at all. Most people don't care for watching the entire train.

[@stephenbardzilowski6618]

Your opening morning or evening night shot was brilliant! Respectful, watching whole trains for me, is not exciting. Great job!

[@K-Rail]

You always put together a great video! Fantastic shots!

[@NorfKhazad]

Thanks, I need to get out shooting more this fall and winter.

[@easternroutemainlinevideos6823]

Fantastic footage! It’s like watching a movie!

[@joannriza06]

It’s nice to see those blues still running.

Great work of the former Pan Am, hopefully a few of those older GEs stay around a bit longer.

[@NorfKhazad]

Seems like they might. CSX actually bothered repainting one, we'll see how many more they do that with. I remember when they first showed up everyone was upset and I told them they'd miss them when they're gone and replaced with wide nose units.

[@itzmedb8290]

The one at the end got to be the shortest train I ever seen.

[@NorfKhazad]

I believe that was LA-3, a local that switches industries between Lawrence and Lowell.

Your microphone doesn't seem to be blowing out anymore. New mic or did your adjust your existing one?

[@NorfKhazad]

I had been trying to use manual volume on it before but kept getting it wrong. I just gave up and put it on auto gain (which I'd never tried on this mic) and what do you know, it works great.

[@FlyingSwitch]

@@NorfKhazad That's good. Also, have you had any rolling shutter problems with the A7SIII? I was looking into it online and people said that the rolling shutter was pretty apparent on the 1st generation. Has this been fixed on newer models or do you use some sort of correction in post processing?

[@NorfKhazad]

@@FlyingSwitch rolling shutter has been a complete non-issue for me with this camera. I would say it has the best rolling shutter performance of any camera I've used.

[@FlyingSwitch]

@@NorfKhazad It might only be an issue with the older models.

[@NorfKhazad]

@@FlyingSwitch if it is it can probably be fixed with a firmware update.
