Beautiful home! :)

HD compositions up the ante on the aesthetics of the long photo. so beautiful. i am eagerly awaiting my 5DMII!

Serene setting, made all the more soothing with that silky sharpness. :-)

I am surprised that the 5dmkII records in h264. Did you detect the video being brighter after exporting the edit? I have had a problem with that codec on occasion.

Nice audio too... particularly liked the burning leaves.

Love your 'boring' afternoon Jo.

Very surprised at the video from the 5D mkII, can't wait to get my hands on one now.

great video.. colours are beautiful.

Cliff, I think that is a bug in quicktime, not the codec. Try dropping the video into a browser or editing program... exposure will be fine.

really high genuine quality

I'm so excited by this news! I cannot wait for this camera to be delivered to my door! The potential of this camera with its video and low light capabilities is so great that I created a wiki for the 5d. People have been collecting video and still samples from around the world that is very helpful to anyone thinking about buying the mk ii or wanting to see what it can do... planet5d.com -- this movie has been added to the samples!

jay, The h264 bug is widely blogged upon. It is something in quicktimes gamma settings. There are kludge fixes. But, no definative resolution that I have found.

That is why I am wondering how the raw 5dmkII video looks before and after editing. Which is where I have brightness issues with the codec.

Moving stills...

Nice to see Fall in Japan! Very serene. Makes me want to go out and pick up the new Canon!

Wabi Sabi!

I did notice that thing were a bit dark/contrasty, but I was assuming it was the bright sun. I'll mess around with it more and see if I notice any problems with h264...

Wonderfully shot, nicely framed.
Very nice relaxing video Joichi-san :)

The video came out beautifully (at least to my heathen eyes). Beautiful home too.

Lovely videos. Can you comment on the focusing? Are you doing it manually? I have a D90 and have started playing with the video. So far, focus control is challenging (for me). Curious to hear your thoughts.

Been focusing manually. On the tiny 640x480 screen, this is the most sketchy part of the process. ;-)

Looks relaxing and mostly quite nice video. Noticed several problems in storytelling of video: dog runs from left to right and in next picture runs from right to left. Also, idea of dog starting to run was nice but it could have been better with little bit faster edit (less amount of waiting if part from the beginning of dog clip would have been cut). Anyways, one learns as he does. ;)
