Friends: I am indeed giving the keynote address at this years big PDN Photo Plus Expo in NYC on October 28th. And…drumroll….we’re bringing it to you LIVE on the internets…
WHAT: chasejarvis LIVE – Keynote from Photo Plus
WHO: You, me, and some kick ass special guests
WHERE: Javits Center NYC…or….online at http://www.chasejarvis.com/LIVE
WHEN: October 28th – 11:30am EDT
Love to meet you in person at the show or, of course, tune in online. Registration is avail here (note: it gets more expensive after this week).
And YES, my camera got very wet in the making of this video.
(And as for the special guests? One of them will be the handsome and popular Rob Haggart – APhotoEditor.com. Others announced this week)








Ha! nice!
Giveaway at event – One wet camera….
The D7000 can handle that kind of water splash?! Or did you use some waterproof case?
I liked the previous creative inspiration teaser better, this one hasn’t got any twist
Even if the camera is sealed from the weather, the lens and mount are not. They either trashed the lens our used a protective housing such as an Ewa housing.
yeaaah! Weather sealing rules.
Yep! Nice brainstorming environment.
Got to love weather sealing!
was it warm water?
Wow!
Ummm, is your camera fairly waterproof? Or is do you just get lucky and not get it very wet?
Awesome way to announce your Keynote speech at PDN.
Don’t have too much fun.
Nice! I’m there!
Freak of nature!! and I not talking about the weather!!! lol
that jarvis guy, always thinking five steps ahead, pretty sweet to have that video recorded on your sailing trip.
i like the current blogging frequency, nice entertainment
though there s some open questions in earlier post, would be great if these wouldn t fall through the grid
cheers
Don’t buy any used gear from this guy!!! LOL!
LOVE the B roll! Nice video broseph
Very nice. It reminds me of a scene out of Back To The Future (minus the water). “Doc!!! I have to tell you something about the future!!!”
oh lord, exactly what hit my mind within the first 10 seconds LOL
Seeya there!
awsome!!!
Very well said. Looking forward to it.
You’re a douche! Loved it! x
I see that You got some “hits” regarding the ideas…
yeah, please comment on your experience with Nikon’s water sealing! I think it’s something most people that are, admittedly not as adventurous you are, curious about.
ok. not intending this to be a gear post, but in all seriousness, the camera has not missed a beat-worked perfectly all day, and everyday thereafter. i simply wiped this camera with a fresh water rag to remove the salt after this experience and wiped it dry with a towel. good to go.
note that I had my back to the waves so it wasn’t taking direct shots, but it got plenty wet….
Fun video. Good to see the humor and humility from such a superstar. Also, I have to live somewhere more exciting. Nothing good happens in GA. Except DragonCon or whatever.
You have gone stir crazy?!
Hey Chase, just registered, but i’m not sure if the Gold Expo Pass is enough. Do i need anything else to watch your keynote?
Appreciate if u answer, i’m coming from Brazil.
Dude, I’d keep an eye on that camera. Salt water is death for cameras, weather sealed or not. I’ve had friends lose a D700 and D3x and 5D Mark II to the same type of exposure (wave spray at the beach).
Glad you’ve got a backup! Oh, wait… it was shooting the video of you.
Hopefully one camera stayed dry.
hahahaha Thats sooo awesome!
AT LEAST McNally didn’t show to NIKON how he use to abuse of his gear.
I BET the customer for this assignment was not who he said it was but … NIKON!
Like somebody said above … he is 5 steps ahead … anybody notice he has 2xD700 that NOBODY else have?
Ask him to do the same with his Hassel … hahahahaha.
You’re the best Chase … da’best.
AH!!! I wish I was going! So many exhibitors I’d love to see and hear from! LOADS of useful information!
I’m curious to know what you’ll be speaking about, Chase! I’m sure you’ll mention your iPhone app… It’s really changed how most of us look at photography. Plus, even when I’m busy and not out with my SLRs, it keeps me shooting and thinking photographically/creatively.
Will you post footage of the event?
I was concerned about the camera too! Fun vid, it’s always great watching your adventures!
Love it! Great fun = great images.
I’ve subjected my D3 to plenty of unintentional salt water abuse over the last few years and it has been faultless too (yes you would want to hope that a D3 is up to the task but salt water generally takes no prisoners)
Thanks for the sneak
Its inevitable for ANY blog about photography to become a “gear post”….
Not quite greenwater over the bow there, but Chase must surely love the taste of saltwater. Next time, take a trip down to that little body of water between Australia and Tasmania; 45 foot seas, surely not fit for a sailing vessel. I wonder if he could get video in that environment.
Awesome take!!!
“So far, nothing’s really hit me…” – nice edit into getting bashed a coupl’a times by Mother Ocean – lol!
Thanks for giving us a larf! Nice to see the gear all held up fine too.
Made me smile right away. Fantastic! Cheers Andreas
When I grow up I want to be like you!!! hahaha
Sounds great
I have a suggestion I think would be really sweet to have. At the last cjlive event I got the ical subscription, would it be possible to subscribe to a cjlive ical calendar, that allways would be updated? I know it’s a little more work to you, but I belive that a lot would use it
Really creative man, I love it.
Such nice wind, and you didn’t sail? What a pity.
Anyway, what was the lens that also withstood the splashes?
Nice post good grief my 7D died with less than a second of salt water contact (it did have the battery pack on it with opens up the battery compartment (no weather seal between the two).
Looks like a cool place to get away from everyday life though
The papers real wet….CLASSIC!
How do you clean salt off your sensor ?
Fun! =)
Such committment. You didn’t really have to go to the ends of the earth to prove you dig creativity. But we’re glad you did! Looking forward to keynote. Be safe.
i am so happy to see one of these funny vids again.
Freakin’ cool announcement!!!
i lick my d3s after every shoot. havent had any problems
That’s the coolest way to announce anything ever!
- I was planning on going to the PDN Expo but I just realized that I don’t have the funds for it
I was looking forward to it, but I guess that I can watch it online now.
Thanks a million for that. Very cool!
I so wish I could come! But it is a long way from Australia to US…
I love you Chase!
Sweet!
My set designers are better than yours. Yours almost looked real though.
Haha , nice vid.
Have to watch it online , kinda long way from Holland to the US.
But i’ve a question , how do you dry of your equipment ? Last time I was drying of my camera , the lens got condensed. And it lasted for 8 hours so that was kinda stupid. I started to think that I screwed my lens. Maybe you could make a video of it.
Hahaha, I really had to laugh!
Damn nice Video, great idea
Any chance you can do a blog post on how you modified the bag to fit the laptop in!??
“I don’t know,….. the weather??” hahaha
@jesus, or anybody else for that matter…
my registration gives me a +1 if anybody wants free entry to the show on Thursday. Also, I’m flying to San Francisco Thursdsay night, so I wont be using it for the rest of the weekend. I’d be happy to give to to somebody who could put it to good use jerophoto (at) gmail (dot) com
Haha, nothing like a boattrip, can you maybe do a blog item on how to prepare and clean your gear after the salty afair? I had a few and I always experiance that to be a knarly part of the job.
Cheers!
