A picture is thousand words that takes less than a second while a thousand words is a picture that takes a month.

This is one cool camera! the video out of this camera is awesome and it has pro audio in and its a super still camera. I might switch!
Check out the video http://www.usa.canon.com/dlc/controller?act=GetArticleAct&articleID=2086This is just awesome. Thanks, David.

I used to shoot a Sony Betacam SP a lot. This video is as good or better and you can get a really cool look with still lenses. I think cut length is limited to 2 minutes so you couldn’t do long takes but thats not a big deal. Its impressive!

I am seriously thinking about getting one of these. I’ll wait till the 1st gen gets out and then try to pick one up. The video capabilities are impressive. I’ve been cutting a lot of DVCpro HD footage recently and I’d say the canon’s footage rivals that quality. There are some noise and detail in the bokeh issues that I noticed, but it could be from web compression. It shoots in H.264, which is fine for web but not for broadcast.
I see a lot of newspapers starting to have video for their stories on their websites once this camera drops. The next few years are going to be interesting to see how different media formats meld into one another.http://society6.com/grainfarmer Fly Fishing and Landscape open edition Photography prints.

Chad, I’m wondering if clients might expect a photographer to shoot both stills and video in the future.
We might as well if we do the lighting anyway..
Interesting times ahead !

Having to shoot stills and motion video of the same things can be a lot to rap your head around sometimes. If your are shooting a scene and you shoot a Hi-res still and then you shoot video with sound and motion within the same basic composition its no big deal assuming you are using daylight, tungsten, HMI lighting, or maybe your flash modeling lamps would work.
If you had a small Steadicam rig and a little LED light, or a couple of Dedo lights and a tripod with a fluid head you could be a small production company.
Its going to be interesting to see how people use this camera thats for sure.
My lights (Elinchrom) have 300 watt modeling lights, through the softboxes ect. they would be enough with the high ISO to do some nice lighting.
I’ve also added two 1000 wattt tungsten lights (Elichrom mount) so I can up the ambient levels.I figure I will be able to do short video grabs of the people I shoot for the web or whatever the clients want..
Just need to learn all about sound gear
