Very cool stop motion video of the Space Shuttle taken with Canon Digital SLRs
Wow, as always, thanks to Victor Khong for passing along another gem.
This is a fantastic video put together from over 100 hours of photographs taken with up to nine simultaneously used Canon 5D Mark II Cameras during the preparation of the Space Shuttle for Launch.
You get to see the Space Shuttle being moved into the assembly building, lifted with a crane, rotated to a vertical position and hoisted onto the rocket for launch. Fantastic.
Leica S2, M9, Summilux, Blog… Whew – There’s a lot going on in Leica Land

Other new Leica goodness includes their new Leica Blog. I’ll be reading.
