I rigged a remote today for the basketball game between Colorado State and New Mexico at Moby Arena. The remote was set up behind the basket attached to the old style basket support. It gives a really unusual perspective for shots right around the rim. I used a Magic Arm to mount the camera and used a 24-70 f 2.8 lens set to 35mm for the shots. I set the f-stop to 4. I focused on the bottom of the net which meant focus was just a little off for the off to the side of the rim. It’s not quite the dramatic angle of looking down into the basket from remotes rigged on the backboard but still provided an interesting perspective. Unfortunately, CSU lost the game.
