Ducati motorcycle commercial filmed with iPhone 4
The HD video featuring the Ducati Multistrada 1200 motorcycle was shot solely with a iPhone 4. The only trick that was used in post production was stabilization to give the appearance of using a professional camera. All of the very impressive footage was captured this past Sunday in the Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb. If you are not familiar with any Pike’s Peak events, they are simply races to the top of the mountain via some treacherous dirt road terrain.
Be sure to select the 720p option in the video when viewing from your desktop. Video after the break!

Very impressive indeed
Wow!!
Wow this is very well done. Amazing it was shot on a cell phone.
Dam that was sweet ..
Can android do that?
android? what’s that?
Wow!!!!android what what
Depending on what android phone you choose but the droid x and evo are more than capable of doing that
Ok, I want an OWLE Bubo now!!! That looks so awesome!
Droid x may be able to do it but probably not with the quality iPhone 4 did there.
FYI, the roads in the Pikes Peak climb are primarily paved – they’re not “dirt roads,” The multistrada is capable of minimal non-street riding, but isn’t a true dual-sport like the BMW GS series or KTMs.
Really awesome vid i love the iphone4 and don’t feel the need to stir iphone vs android stuff i read it too much as is. Currently evo is under 720p video quality and camera seems a little slower at white balance and auto exposure but is a very capable phone. the motorola droid x is supposed to take 720p video only time will tell what actually camera they chose though. i love the owle bubo’s but didnt want to get one with my 3gs prolly will with the iphone 4 though.
Mr Jobs, 60 fps on next iOS4 update, please?
Android is that a pay as you go phone lol. Good job on this video with the iPhone .
Next year I’d like to see them shoot AND edit it on the iPhone.
Great stuff guys!

All very cool, but why does it look like s**t when I click and play the link on my iPhone 4! Doesn’t QuickTime support HD playback or what’s up?
That was really nice, now I really can’t wait to get one, too bad it took 8 phone to film, that 64 gig model would have really come in handy with the new hd feature
Nice video. Dull, dull, dull, story.
@ Andy
I think it’s linked through You Tube and if your on the cellular network it will look horrible. But if you’re on wi-fi you’ll get a nicer looking video.
iMovie. Facetime. All the cool stuff app developers are bound to do with the new hardware and iOS4. I can’t wait until July 14th when I finally get mine. The iphone 4 is going to be a blast for me.
I dont think the whole vid was taken with an iphone. You can see a reflection of the person taking the vid at 7 sec mark…. Sure doesn’t look like he is holding an iPhone.
@ KEN
That’s because, as the youtube description says, it is in one of these —> http://www.wantowle.com
Wes is right. It’s a stabilization lens on the iPhone 4. Pretty neat if you ask me.
How did they do the zoom in the video?
I have to say, not bad for a cell phone camera. Not bad at all. That stabilization lens helps a lot, too. Now I really want to get one of those things. Does anyone know if OWLE makes them for other types of phones, or are they currently only making them for the iPhone? Nice bikes, and nice video…
