B2 Stealth Bomber in 1080p at DVinfo.net

Older clip. While I was shooting a sunset this Stealth Bomber decided to land right in front of me. I was caught by surprise. Re uploaded it in 1080.

First clip is the raw video, second clip I manually went in and tried to stabilize it using pan and crop.

Nice .. cost many thousands to set up a shot like that.

Both clips jumped around a bit on my rig but that's it. And panning like that is not easy especially with no notice .. nice job. Cheers.

Thanks Allan, yea I uploaded it at an ungodly high bitrate trying to keep it clean. Plays smooth on my computer though.

Actually two planes landed but the first plane video is just too jumpy and crude looking so I didn't use it. I had cables and cords hanging off the camera, didn't have room on all sides of the tripod, but no way was I not going to try. :)

EDIT: here I also put it on youtube so maybe your computer can play it better.
