I've bought ten or so Nikkors and will probaly keep most of them.

You would care if you lived in a Pal country. 30p is very difficult to integrate with anything here and requires painstaking conversion to 25p to be useful. What's more 50hz lighting often...

I've actually been using a couple of Nikkor AF zooms on my 5D, and yes they work great. Apart from getting aperture control, the nice thing about having a Nikkor zoom attached is the shutter doesn't...

I think it can be taken as a given that we would only jump if Nikon get it right (in fact that was stated) - of course we would have to see the footage first.



I didn't hear anyone say that. ...

Jon you can buy sets of cheap no-brand extension tubes for around $20 - no need to buy the Canon version as you won't be using auto focus anyway.

I have a set which I use for play - comprising...

Thanks Tom.

Wish I had an EX1 to complement my 5D. These shots clearly bear out your numbers. Different tools for different purposes.

i agree with you Daniel. I just shot a documentary intercutting footage between an XH-A1 and 5D. This was shot in and around a forest.

Nice work Mark. Once your findings are definitive you'll need to do a "5D Mark II Shutter Exposed! (Part III)' thread and get Chris to lock it down as a sticky.

This knowledge is essential!

This means giving up aperture control, and allowing the camera to dictate shutter - not fine for me at least. Shooting at say 135mm is a joke under these conditions.
