Canon EOS 500D / T1i sample video - 720p - click HD!

[kaups007]

ruanx84, sound is recorded with the cameras built-in microphone. Lens must be always good, you can use bad lens with good camera and get bad results.

[ryanx84]

Not a great example of the T1 - Sound was recorded using another device then overdubbed and you used a lens that costs 3x the amount of the camera, if not more.. meh

[torchidman]

Beautiful shot; Would be nicer with a sound track though....

[buddyhaulin55]

love the shot, grand

[MichaelJacksonSpin]

i have this camera too, and i hate that fucking auto iso and no manual adjustment, just som random light settings. i got alot of noise when i film in low light, why is that ?

[1suziewong]

Very beautiful..

[ableedingcorpse]

Sold. I'm investing in a T1i. That was just too beautiful of an image.

[TheCardHurler]

beautiful. :)

[880728leonjf]

hi there, do you have the standard lense of the camera, the lense that comes originally wuith the camera

[TheTraceurBoy]

@kaups007 I think the seound was the water lapping against the beach or something. P.S. I think the mic is better than on most camera's.

[playfsx]

don't take dslr for video .. i have the 500d its nice for picture but in video its fail , no auto focus , no manual iso , no manual f , crappy sound ...

[littlec916]

@playfsx it certainly does not fail in the video department. you have to remember a couple things. this was the second dslr(ever) to have hd video. this is also a mid-priced camera so you cannot expect it to have the options that nicer cameras will have such as manual aperture or iso. autofocus is another perk you get with a nice camera. besides all these things the video is still very usable...

[Mysteriousidol]

How did you get the amazing audio?

[trancer256]

Damn! Great timing with the fish and all.. Very nice.

[mmc029]

wow this sample is very nice. thanks for sharing.

[dillyg0701]

Okay, you are obviously PMSing, but its okay. Don't hate because i actually own this camera, I just don't research it. Last, go brush you teeth with some industrial cleaner, because cursing is bad!

[salviocoelho]

Beautiful.

[alfalanis26]

great

[omarspence]

Beautiful footage, nicely done.

[Mystefier]

I only see one video here. Is the t1i and the EOS 500D the same thing?

[Lazzat2009]

Yep, two models for the same camera!

[omarspence]

yes, it is called the T1i in the US & the 500D in Europe

[hi1254]

yes

[dillyg0701]

wow, you are really SLOW.

[jamieball]

I like this camera! :D

[Weber805]

that sound can't be coming from the T1i

[fioletowykocur94]

nice video but camera is expansive :(

[kaups007]

Buy used camera, 2-3 times cheeper.

[batmanisalegend]

You get a free £80 canon cAMera bag when buying it new off warehouse express (camera plus lens £500) then remember your £50 canon cash back

[MRA9700]

@kaups007 if you buy used, how many actuations has the camera done? (camera shutter open and close). otherwise, if you don't know, the shutter will lock-up if it has reached max actuations.

[magermax000]

no it's not

[scaremenga]

@fioletowykocur94 Or finance it.. certain major electronics store offer that.. 

[TheTraceurBoy]

@fioletowykocur94 BUy from U.S. website now. It's like $600-$800

[did4h2k]

@fioletowykocur94 its pretty much one of the cheapest you can get.....

[samf727]

Just bought the rebel T1I (500D) this morning! Waiting for it to be shipped! I hope i can take videos like this one! haah

[mugupo10]

Not with the kit lens, you must brough like L lens and use the correct manual setting This video use L lens Canon 100-400. which cost like $1500

[Jamirofan89]

you americans got it easy

here in Europe that lens cost at least 2300$!!!!!!!

[AhvInimene]

500d* :D

[Kaguamax]

I just bought mine a month ago, I am so happy, have great pictures an video of my grand daughter, amazing quality and sound!!!

[AhvInimene]

Bought mine d500 yesterday... Still checkin it out, but seems to be really good one ;) Didnt buy it cuz of video option, but its nice to have such option. Im a lot in nature and sometimes it's better to take the video ( than pictures) to capture real emotion ;)

[upigoku]

this is really beautifulll...GREAT SHOT!

[labalbi]

Did you use the kit lens (18-55 mm ) . This video is amazing !!!

[kaups007]

No, ise used Canon 100-400 IS USM L telephoto lens.

[naldchow]

Can anyone please tell me if EOS 500D is the same thing as Rebel T1i 500D ? I can only find the former in Hong Kong, need a camera to take video for youtube. Thanks!

[kaups007]

Yes it is. It has different names in europe, asia and usa.

[dxhumph]

I personally still opted to grab a 40D over paying the extra for the 500D.

Those shots look amazing, but I weighed up the reasons I was purchasing a new DSLR in the first place - and it was photography, not video.

I guess I just opted for the specialist camera, not the jack of all trades - master of none.

Very well done on that vid though mate. It looks lovely.

[thekeddi]

That's awesome!!! i ordered my 500D today, i can't wait to get it as I live by the sea too and am hoping to video something like this too!

[keestelpro]

This looks like a photograph but it's actually moving!

The HD recording option of the Canon 500D is really high class!

[wildaboutimages]

Beautiful Shot

[bdizo]

you can record up to 4g. that's about 18 minutes in 720p. you then have to turn off the cam and turn it back on. the battery is what limits videos. you definitely need a battery grip and some old manual focus (and aperture) lenses to go along with the t1i.

[Iowa789101112]

How long can you record, before the memory card is full? 10 minuts? A hour?

[kaups007]

In HD mode (1280 x 720px, 30 fps) it takes less than 200Mb per minute. My memory card is 16Gb, so about 80 minutes. Other thing is battery: i havent mesured, but filming eats battery fast. Im sure it cant last 80 minutes, so you need extra batteries. And maybe extra hard drive :)

[menrichky]

any advices between this camera and Nikon D90?

[encorporadow]

Definitely the 500D... its amazing! I am getting mine soon :)

[spotgreeen]

It can't autofocus when changing zoom!

[kaups007]

500d does not have autofocus when making video.

[spotgreeen]

does the 5D mk II?

[kaups007]

Nope. And professional cameras also not. But with 5D Mark II you can at lease choose aperture and ISO, in 500d its all automatic...

[VendixVTC]

That is quite some talent, where was this shot taken from?

[ollecarlsson]

this is just as good as television companies EXPENSIVE cameras, and I simply dont see the difference between this and all the 16mm movie downloads....

[farazag10]

wow!! now I want this camera for my sweet lenses!!

[kaups007]

As i commented: lens was Canon 100-400. Kit is not enough for animals and birds, you have to be only couple meters from animal or bird. For recordind horses and horse events as video? Why not, but you need good tele lens.

[SmallvilleFanatic600]

Very beautiful. So is this taken with the lens it comes with in the kit? Would you recommend the Canon Rebel T1i for recording horses and horse events such as show jumping and barrel racing? Thx so much

[Mrbiggerjobs1000]

That is very beautiful

[paulmacapagal]

i am impressed...

[1exotic]

amazing
