Four things that would help immensely with this sort of video:
1. Split screen view of the two cameras in sync during the pans
2. Comparison of the different modes of the 7d (60p, 30p and 24p)
3. Comparison to different cameras (CCD, GH1, Red, etc)
4. Still frames with the angles drawn on them compared to the vertical

right. you can download the video and play with it - too much work for me

LOL, you do realize you're talking with the guy that gave us the Magic Lantern firmware right?

Not saying you should do any of the work, but something just didn't sound quite right considering the ridiculous amount of "work" Tramm has done for all of us.

LOL. you tell me that now? no wonder the request list is way to work intensive and technical for me. main reason for doing it was to satisfy my own curiosity (after my first dizzy attempt) this one shows the 7d is a bit better then the 5d. that's good enough for me.

I did a similar test to compare the different frame rates of the 7D with a split screen to show the two synchronized cameras. The 30p and 24p look about the same as the 5D's 30p, while the 7D's 60p has definitely less rolling shutter. I used 85mm on the 7D, which is equivalent to 135mm on the 5D.

just watched it, the higher shutter speed seems to help also.
