"Tatouage" shot with a Nikon D800?
Few days ago the Japanese photographer and director Shinji Watanabe uploaded a picture on flickr that was probably taken with Nikon D800 (see EXIF data at the bottom of this post). The picture was removed few hours later but on his website Shinji Watanabe wrote about an upcoming 30 minute short movie called “Tatouage” shot with a Nikon camera that is supposed to premier during the CP+ show in Japan next week – here is the schedule:
Part 1: February 9th, 1:15 p.m. to 2:05 p.m.
Part 2: February 9th, 3:05 p.m. to 3:55 p.m.
My guess is that just like the motorcycle movie shot in Chicago, “Tatouage” will be another production to show and promote the video capabilities of the new Nikon D800.
Update: as several readers have mentioned the comments section, Shinji Watanabe’s flickr stream contains at least one image with a maximum/original resolution of 7360 x 4912 (just like those D800 samples):
