Jonas Bendiksen: Shooting An Extreme Sports Festival With The Leica S

This is a good time to take a look at an interesting video showing an extensive and quite unusual shoot (for a medium format camera at least) of an extreme sports festival in Voss, Norway by photographer Jonas Bendiksen (from Magnum Photos).
