Re: 5DMK3 Question

For the past couple of years I have enabled...

Re: 5DMK3 Question
That is not quite true in reality, and will only be viable at the upper end of the ISO spectrum. At any medium-low ISO settings filmed in low light levels, the fast f1.2 - f/2.8 aperture lenses will...

Re: 5DMK3 Question

Re: Canon USA Announces EOS 5D Mark III
That's a great addition which we've all been craving for a long time, Chris. However, I tend to record sound seperately more often with the 5D (it provides the cleanest recordings), so am able to...

Re: Canon USA Announces EOS 5D Mark III
The dedicated (7D-type) Video Start/Stop button on the new Mark III is a nice feature, but it may cause some problems for me. I use my thumb to access the start/stop function on the Mark II when I am...

Re: 5DMK3 Question
I found it strange that the Canon 1DX does not have a headphone jack, yet the 'cheaper' Mark III does.
On the subject of over-heating, I've never had a 5D Mk2 body overheat during a variety of...

Re: Canon USA Announces EOS 5D Mark III
After waiting so long for the 5D Mark III, I guess I was hoping for even more improvements over the orginal 5D Mark II.
The problem with moire, especially when filming moving ripples on water, has...

Re: Nikon D4 with new video features
Ozzie, I need both the stills and video in my professional work, so a DSLR is very important, such as the D4 or 5D etc., but if you only need video, then I would suggest that you look seriously at...

Re: Nikon D4 with new video features
Wonderful footage in the "WHY" video clip. The extra crop mode with full HD video will also come in handy for extra reach combined with super telephoto lenses for nature/sport/wildlife.

Were you using MF throughout...

Re: Matching DSLR & XLH1 - anyone doing this?
The 5D tends to have much higher contrast, but they blend OK with most subjects; although head-shots where you need to blend skin tones can be tough.
The C300 looks to be a better match for the...

Re: Canon 70-200 f2.8 for Video?
I have not found IS to be worthwhile for most of my video work with a variety of Canon L lenses, especially any lenses beyond 135mm. With all telephoto lenses of 200mm or 300mm, I tend to always have...
