Peter

Park Cameras are a good retailer with competitive prices which is why i bought my 5d mkii from them. Not sure where this exorbitant price comes from. I could buy 2 EX1's for that.

Insane!

Tony, if you can live with CMOS you'll have a much better choice and IMO, the shortcomings are not that big a deal.

Don't disagree with you. I bought a 5d myself and i love it, though ideally it would be a 2nd camera to a "real" video camera which i can't afford just now.

Oh! It's not supported on Premiere yet.

I imagine that will change very soon. Keep an eye out, or contact them and see when it's coming. Can't believe Pluraleyes won't be supported on Adobe.

Great thread, and thanks for posting the video above.

Totally agree with Chris Hurd and Vincent Laforet. The 5dmkii is a superb second camera IMO, but no substitute for a "proper" video camera. ...
