Re: Time out for a video
Thanks, Al. On kludge: it was an absolutely brilliant suggestion you made given the OP's need; I was just saying that with the ML installed, it is not needed and one can use any mic. Using ML (there...

Re: EOS M thread
The "horrible" refers to *your* ability to hold the camera still? Right? Or what? There is no dispute among any professional viewers that the EOS-M's ability to shoot stills or video is any worse...

Re: EOS M thread
I don't get it - you blame the camera for your inability to hold steady a very sharp, non-IS lens? So get an IS lens.

Re: what does the * icon do on the M?
Thanks, for the details. It is pixel size that matters, and the Panasonic packs more pixels in a smaller space so the pixels are smaller.

Re: what does the * icon do on the M?
The video bitrate is 45 Mbps (108030p and 108024p), higher than almost all camcorders. The bitrate is not the problem, and a higher bitrate will not help with low-light noise. The G2 has a...

Re: what does the * icon do on the M?
The EOS-M sensor and processor are *exactly* the same as Canon's APS-C DSLRs, so what are you comparing the EOS-M video to? It is just a small-body version, without mirror, of the Canon big cameras....

Re: what does the * icon do on the M?
The * icon is really important for video: it is the equivalent of a focus/ae lock button. In settings, you determine what the * does: it can be both af and ae lock, or af lock only, or ae lock only....
