Eadweard Muybridge (1830~1903) espantou o mundo ocidentalcom registros fotográficos contínuos, pretensos, raros, belos,científicos, sem deixar de exibir uma poderosíssima estética,nos dando a gênese do que hoje denominamos ´filme´ ou maiscomumente, CINEMA, corruptela latina do original em grêgokinemáthos do mais analógico -e óbvio- possível ´movimento´.Há passagens históricas na fotografia que os registros falam porsi, como é o caso da corrida de bólidos auto móveis em Amiens,França, onde o fotógrafo, prô seu encanto e surpresa, capturaas 1as. imagens da cena em movimento... COM MOVIMENTO!Jacques-Henri Charles-Auguste LARTIGUE:Most famous vintage "Focal Plane Shutter Distortion" with the Rène Croquet’s #6 Theophile Schneider racer. The car was captured as if leaning-forward-at-speed during the XIII Grand Prix de l’A.C.F. July 12, 1913 at Amiens, France.Tal façanha é possível devido à travessia do Obturador numplano horizontal, gerando uma Aberração Óptica, à um sótempo simples e relativamente complexa, alterando nossasPerspectivas e os Pontos-de-Fuga, estes, tão preciosos nabiologia do enxergar na Física do equipamento humano:Sem esses referenciais presentes, nós nos confundimos !No caso da imagem clássica do carro de corrida distorcendoá direita, enquanto os espectadores deformam à esquerda,isto ocorre por que o plano do obturador na horizontal passalentamente, enquanto Mr. Lartigue acompanha o movimentodo carro, técnica conhecida como ´panning´ ou varredura.Eis que... A Leica DCC M3 também ´agrega´ essas qualidades !Assim que dominar ainda mais o equipamento, tratando-o comoum obediente cão (por enquanto, é ele quem me domina, comoum gato faz personalizadamente com seu dono... ) devo obterregistros ainda mais satisfatórios, cujas distorções alteram... senão em definitivo... ao menos ( eu vou querer acreditar ) emparte, o modo ´´certinho´´ e controlado de vermos as coisas.A VW´s Focal Plane Shutter Distortion, made it by myself!Vórtex... Watch the concrete pole, squizzing by itself!Squeeeeeeze... ÔPS... I am not pretty drunk out... YET.Slightily "Spiral" Pole besides a Brazilian Phone Boot- KEEP WALKING !Eadweard Muybridge (1830 ~ 1903) enchants the Western Worldwith his continnuous shots, all rare, beauty, sublime &amp; scientific,but never forgotten a stronggest aestehetic aproach, a kind ofContemporary Law-Giver in a pré-Cyber manner, giving to us thefoyeur of what all of us named ´´movie´´, from the Latin wordmovement, or, more commercially, Movie Theatre, the Cinemafrom Ancient Greek ´´kinemáthos´´ the roots of, yes indeed,the obviously and so apopriate, analogic, ´movement´ word.But exist some historic cliffs and trails about the photographythat its registers talks by themselves, like an ancient europeanracecar, Cigars-like in form of Wheeled Rockets where the shutter,for his own amazement and surprise, captures the 1st. originalscene in movement... WITH THE FRAMED MOVEMENT, INDEED !This exploit it turns into ´possible to do´  in a propper manner,becouse the obturator crosses through a horizontal plan, in aLeft-To-Right short movement, the so called "focal plane shutter distortion", complex iand simple at the same time, wich alteratesthe point of perspectives, so necessary and usefull among us theSuperior Primates born-equipped with Steroscopic Lenses , thephisycs of the human ´no sparepart equipment´ vision.Without that perspectives, we feel -really- like losts animals.In refference to the classic, vintage image of the race car indeforming perspective to right, forwardding the scene whilethe spectators was deformmed rewinded left, this happensthanks to the slow motion of the shutter on horizontal axis,while Mr. Lartigue hunts in a so skillfull and original moodthe old race car, in a panning movement with the camera.Here is the DCC MINOX LEICA M3 also agregate this behaviors!So expert I will turns into this gadget, dealling with it as a LoyalDog  ( at this present moment, this machine was most kinddaCAT and  I am his Comprehensive Slave... ) I will obtain muchmore satisfatory records, which distortions alterates, if no in adeffinitively way ( I want to believe this ), at least, in a partialform against the confformed and controlled and naturall meansto watch things.  I am talking here of ALL THE THINGS, INDEED.Christian Steagall-Condé.
