    I think... the video is create with Nikon D90 or Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

    Nice film!
  • Rafaelito DeAusen 2 years ago
    I agree. I was fiddling with the Canons new T1i with HD video, it has the look and feel of video on a dSLR. The bokeh effects that you achieve with it, and the lack of autofocusing with moving objects.

    Wonderfull. How did you get 5 min and 42 sec of HD-vdieo on a non-Plus Vimeo account. If I save a 3 min and 30 sec in mov H.264 it's bigger than 500 MB. Witch program do you use to convert your video in mov.

    Many thanks

    Really nicely told story with beautiful imagery! I especially loved the focus being left set and letting the actors walk into focus - Might have been a production problem but totally works a treat!
