If you watched a skateboarding video around the year 2000 it was probably filmed on the VX1000.
A recent video shared by Red Bull tells the story of the Sony VX1000 and how it became the iconic camera of skateboarding.
The VX1000 is so highly thought of that t-shirts, jewelry, and all types of merchandise bearing its image have been made and sold to disciples. “If you look back at skateboarding videos the real golden era was the VX100 with the Century fisheye,” says filmmaker Ty Evans. “It just felt like you were in there more, you were in the action, it felt impactful.”In the above video, various skate filmmakers praise the camera’s design; particularly the handle which seems custom-made for filming close action.
