You've seen one, you've seen em all. Couple talking about their relatioship, b-roll of couple interacting, some stills thrown in the mix, you know how this goes.

I'm posting this mostly cause the interviews were shot using a D90 with audio being run into an Olympus LS-10. I was really happy with how the interviews turned out from a technical standpoint and wanted to show what can be done with non-traditional gear.

I think I'll hold on to my D90 till someone decides to drop a fully functional DSLR with "for real" video mode with selectable frame rates sans the crappy codec (I'm talking about you Nikon).

Great work Ethan, it's not the Mark II but a D90 but unless you told us I would have never seen the difference.

Looks real good Ethan. The D90 held up well in the clip. I actually have a non traditional gear I recently added to my arsenal as well that I'll start incorporating in my productions. I'll see how well it does. In preliminary tests it's quite nice. Thanks for sharing the tech perspective.

Not you Monday, you'd never buy yet another camera.

Wanna share what you picked up or is it double secret?

I've always liked the look of the D90, I think it's more "natural" than the 5D but the codec, resolution, and low light are nowhere near the 5D. I keep wondering what a D90 with double the bitrate would look like. Probably never know.
