Filming in the tropics isn’t always everything it’s cut out to be – but at least the rain is warm.
These days many cameras are essentially computers with a lens on the front.
The Phantom extreme slow motion camera needs a laptop to control it as well so you can end up in the odd position of filming a view like this via a computer screen.
