    I love a peek into the life of Sam! My first vidblog shot on the HV30+Brev should be coming out in a week or so.

    One hot tip I learned from shooting with adapters with no tripod is that the "smoothcam" filter in FCP is your friend.

    Sam, I don't even really know what to say. I'm a sucker for photographic shots, especially when it's set to the perfect song, i honestly can't get enough of this video. Thank you for making it.

    Can you tell me some things about the D5 MkII

    What is the maximum video length?
    What is the size of a minute of video?
    What is the file format of the video output?
    Does the camera record audio(Stereo or Mono)?

    Thanks for your help

    The quality of your footage is amazing and your use of DOF is great.
  • Sam Reich plus 10 months ago
    With a 16g card, you can take about 20 minutes. The output is MOV. I believe it's stereo audio, not very good quality. But you can buy an external mic.
  • Buda Dangol 10 months ago
    Thanks I am thinking of getting one of these babys to ease the credit crisis....

    So is it shot with still camera canon 5d using kind of movi mode? DOF is so nice and quality not expected from still camera used as video one...
  • Sam Reich plus 10 months ago
    The Canon 5D Mark ii shoots 1080i video. It's a really great toy.
  • Buda Dangol 10 months ago
    The Canon 5D Mk II has move mode built in!!!
