Leonard, from those examples I can see why you think they suck. I must say my tests - done up to 200mm - were much better. But as I said earlier, there are issues with these filters and I would urge...

I monitor on a 7 inch Swit HD monitor using the HDMI out. You can get rid of most of the info on the output except for the red record dot. It's good enough for focus and framing, but that's about all.

Leonard, I "care if my long lens shots are ruined" which is why I rigorously tested the Lightcraft filters before using them on a paid gig.

I think many of us see the 7D/5D as a stop gap until dedicated large sensor cameras are released. Certainly, I'll go the 1D route if I get a similar series of gigs like I just have. Indeed, having...

Having shot for the last five weeks with both cameras, including a week shooting royalty in the African Bush, my real-world advice is, get the 7D.

Yes, firewire is faster, not dramatically faster, but when the cab is waiting and the producer is giving you the hurry-up it makes a difference - albeit a small one.

I don't think it is a good idea to pack everything in one case. Anyway, take a look at Tenba cases they're excellent.

Bruce, the Lacie rugged drives are bus powered, so will work fine with firewire.

I generally shoot on primes and rarely have to sharpen. When I use a doubler or a mirror lens I add a little sharpening in camera - which seems to work well.

I've seen the Nexto, it looks a well featured product and I'd be tempted if it had a solid state drive, but ultimately I think it's overpriced for what it is.

Not necessarily better, but exporting via Compressor gives you more options and is more efficient. Either way, ditch the MP4 and use H264. I'm sure you'll like the results.
