Director Christopher and Cinematographer Wally Pfister, ASC recently used the Photo-Sonics 4ER and 4C cameras to shoot key effects for the movie -Inception.
The Photo-Sonics cameras were supplied by Photo-Sonics in Burbank California as well as in London
One of several shots using the Photo-Sonics cameras was a shot of Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) falling backwards into a bathtub.
Quote from Cinematographer Wally Pfister ASC:
-The shot looks great. You can see the individual beads of water which gives the scene an otherworldly feeling.
Other shots that were done with the Photo-Sonics cameras were slow-motion scenes of a passenger van going backwards off Terminal Islands Schuyler Hiem Bridge, insert interior shots of the van recording the reaction and weightlessness of the actors as the van plunges to the water below, as well as hallway fight scenes that have a similar effect of a zero gravity environment.
