Re: XF300 vs. 7d
Interesting Syeed, just shows how personal/subjective our preferences are :-)
I've owned a couple of XH-A1s, the 7D, and currently have a 5DII and XF300. For me the XF is quite a step up from...

Re: Vimeo Launches PRO Service
Hi Doug. I've deliberately removed the HD option for now: because there's a mix of DSLR, HDV and Canon XF footage, keeping it SD suits my purpose, ie: it all looks sharp.
It's very easy to...

Re: Good Consumer Match to XA10?
Spiros, presumably you mean with the 7D at 100ISO and the XA10 at 0db gain?
I just bought a HFG10 (same sensor). It's a very nice camera but in my opinion low light doesn't come close to the...

Re: Impressions of my XA10
Hi Andreas,
DSLR pictures often "look" sharper, but I think this has more to do with contrast between in focus/out of focus ares than real resolution. In fact, all the DSLRs have relatively low...
