Thanks!

Thank you! The music is from Edward Scissorhands.

I knew it!! =D

It records MOV files in 1080p H.264 up to 12 mins per clip. It does have an audio input. I got it for my still photography mostly but the video features are great... And convenient when you only want to carry around a SLR.

Yes, it's 1/8" (3.5mm). The one downside is that the Mark II audio uses auto gain adjustment and it can't be manually turned off. Not a huge problem for most people though. If you were getting really serious about audio you would probably be recording using an external audio recorder anyway, and just use the internal mic for clapperboard syncing.

The D90 definitely seems to have more encoding problems than the Canon. Of course you could always bypass it's encoder and record using the HDMI output.

Thanks! Aquariums are good fun and full of interesting subjects...

I have not done that yet... But I was thinking of testing it soon. Out of the box the 5d Mark II definitely wins in the ease of use department for capturing quality clips. And it's great not having to fiddle with adapters. But it has less manual control than the HF100.

If Canon released a firmware update which gave us full manual control over aperture, exposure, and ISO in video mode, and let us shoot in industry-standard frame rates, then I would sell the Letus Mini in a heartbeat.

Thanks Tatiana! The camera is definitely worth it. I'd say go for it, as there is nothing quite like it in this price range. Focus is a little tricky on fast moving subjects, but just take it out a few times and you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly. After a while it will come naturally.
