5DmkII with Nikon lens in broad daylight handheld.

This is a quick test to show that shallow depth is possible in daylight, apologies for the wobbly nature of the picture. It's shot with a Nikon 85mm f1.4 lens and two polarizers mounted on the front to simulate a variable ND filter. Lens aperture was f1.4 and the exposure indicated on the camera was 1/60th at 100asa.

There is no audio on this clip.

Sorry but I can only upload one HD video per week on Vimeo so to view this at 720p you will have to register with Vimeo then download it from the link on the right of this page.

After all the testing you've done do you notice the rolling shutter more on certain focal lengths? That seems to be the biggest weakness so far in this camera. Not as bad as the D90 but still noticeable at certain times. Any way to avoid this without always having to lock down the shots? Thanks and keep posting the great videos!

i was wondering how to maintain a wide aperture for shallow DoF in broad daylight.. ND filters of course!

thanks :)

This looks like a scene from a film Zhang Ke Jia would make. I could ONLY imagine doing this for several hours a day, with little pay, and no thank you's. I love this shot.

No audio? I can hear background wind and the hammer noise.
