You can have the pre-Ai lenses converted to Ai quite easily. And if you have a pre-F series cam that you use with them, you can replace it with an F4 or F5 for cheap.

Different look than the 5D. More neutral. I assume you have the default settings dialed back. Seemed like an inexpensive lens. What was used? I don't like too sharp but many edges seemed soft. I found the shaving short 5D like, but not this. Could the 7D be trading lower noise for resolution in low light? |

expensive lens! 35mm f1.4 L series. Worth downloading it from Vimeo to see it better. I have a lot of my settings dialed down from standard to a more neutral look.

I watched the short this morning on my 23" Apple Cinema Display at work and I've got to say it's impressive. Even the higher gain stuff looks very clean. How do you download a full size version from Vimeo? I just clicked and played it full screen and it was pretty impressive.
Hopefully we'll get some nice wide panoramic shots soon. The point is very well made about shallow depth of field. I'd like to see some more day-to-day footage. Philip's stuff looks better to me than the Canon corporate soap opera demo; that could be due to the compression they used. Some of Philip's shots make me go, "Cool! I want one." The Canon footage made me go, "Hmmm...I dunno yet..." Here's a question for Phil--can you set the shutter go to 1/48 when shooting 24p and keep it there? In other words, can you turn off the auto shutter, iris, etc.? |

It does look better when I downloaded the full clip.
Phil, do you custom white balance or use auto? |

Hmm...just like my old CP16R--24fps, but the shutter was 1/50.

Phil:
A loaded question: Are you satisfied that camera will replace the 5D for you shooting needs ? Or would you go with both bodies, using 5D for some circumstances, and the 7 when you need 24p? I suppose the question also asked is do you see that much difference in your 24p footage vs. the converted footage with the 5d ?

philip,
sorry, i don't have a twitter account...but here was your response when asked about purchasing a 7D if the 5D had the same video capabilities: "nope! i already have two 5dmk2s and if they have same vid functions as 7d then no brainer!" why the 5D over the 7D? images look similar? is it mainly because the 5D is full sensor? other than that, what other video benefits does the 5D have that the 7D doesn't(assuming the 5D gets updated to 7D capabilities)? thanks! |

Beautiful work as usual, Phil. The bokeh on the 1.4 is amazing! Love every bit of it.

Actually only a small part of it was shot at f1.4. Mostly around f1.8 to f2
