Ice and Water - Canon 550D / T2i Test
 

First day shooting with the Canon 550D in Malmö Sweden.
No colour correction or grading. I'm not a fan of test shoots that are graded.


720 @ 50p
70-200mm f4 Canon L series
35mm F2.8 Nikkor
(I went out with a small arsenal of lenses but it was so damn cold, so just used 2 lenses)
ISO @ 200.
Shutter speeds varied... way to high at times.. I will need some ND filters... they will be a necessity in the future. Naked camera- No rig for the camera.

Used cinema tools to convert 50p to 25p. Used StreamClip (a nice little free program) to create a ProRes 422 file. Edited in FCP. Compression for Vimeo in Apple Compressor.

A side note: The Swedish sign that states: 'Livsfarligt att beträda isen' Translates to 'Deadly to tread on the Ice'!

First impressions: Wonderful Tool!

Cheers,
Janssen Herr
