Canon 5D Tests
10 months ago
With a few upcoming projects on the horizon I am heavily testing the Canon 5D Mark II.
Just a range of random shots to test the range of the camera. Tons of contrast coming straight out of the gate. Colors seem super hot as soon as the sun gets out here in the deseret.
Shots on train were taken at high noon just to see the image in the worst possible light.
Lots of potential . . . .

the footage actually looks spectacular on the big screen (60 in plasma). colors are fantastic. i think it has a place with dramatic pieces. it's only true downfall however will be that it shoots in 30p. to my eye at least - it looks a little too smooth at times.
I need this camera :(
and what was the original resolution/pixel dimensions?
correct me if i'm wrong, i'm noticing some film like grain, yes?
Also here's another one for ya, it held up pretty good in the noon sun, think it may fare well in green screen, or is the color compression too much in the codec?
thanks a mil -max
in case i did not mention....SWEET!
so the grain was my real test in this piece . . . wanted to see if cranking up the iso gave me a sort of "simulated" grain. i think it worked somewhat.
i think green screen is where this camera will break down - solely because of the compression happening on the actual video file that is being recorded to the card. call me crazy - but the finer details seem to break up as a result of the stupid h.264 compression.
thats my take at least.
