I think that the same result could be achieved with a good Canon 5D / 7D and Zacuto rig setup. But I also think that moving images embedded into magazines is a transitional / hybrid thing while we wait for Apple to hit us all between the eyes with an e-reader and start selling magazines through iTunes. The whole traditional newsprint food chain must be looking very nervous now. Dead right, Simon. I think that the same result could be achieved with a good Canon 5D / 7D and Zacuto rig setup.

"So, what did these two magazines do with all the awesome technology they employed in these forward thinking cover shoots. Nothing. That’s right as far as I can tell Outside made their normal cover (the photographer made all these cool futuristic looking living covers and inside spreads in his BTS video) and Esquire made a video to go with their normal cover. It’s sort of like buying a Ferrari and hitching a team of horses to it. Beyond idiotic."
