Now hold on....

I think there should be a "points off" procedure for good (ok ok extreme) DOF.... and 5DMKII users should have to tie one hand behind their backs while shooting. Or be disqualified altogether. And in any event no rack focusing. period. Use of bad actors is encouraged. Crummy sound is a must with you as well. (Oh wait, you cannot disable AGC, nevermind <gotcha>).

Level playing field ... ya know.

(All the above was added to make them feel better..... the rest of us know we can make an EPIC using cell phone cameras)

I agree with Chris...

... but at the same time, I can't wait to see the 5dmkii footage...

... oh what to do?

Ok, I jump, regardless.

IN!

Thanks for the welcome! I've only really gotten into the whole filmmaking thing relatively recently, but I'm looking forward to getting more involved. :)

I'm going to be swimming head deep in work during April and most likely headed to the wall of shame, but in the off chance that I do get something made, I want my hat in the ring.

I'm in.

Is the challenge just for 5d MkII users? Or can anyone be involved?
