What is that at 0:52?! Anyone please tell me!!

I have Canon 60D and my computer doesn't have an SD CARD reader (Canon 60d doesn't use flash cards like 5D Mark II). Is there a portable device that can link SD cards in to the computer for a cheap price?

[Recon9143]

@KayWildcat its a card reader

[DemiTheCameraMan]

I just did a tutorial on 5D Filmmaking with almost the same equipment you use on this clip. Good work...

[DahoDocumentaries]

i cant wait to get mine keep up the great work christopher brilliant channel mate!

Long GOP, low bitrate codec.

Moire.

Rolling shutter.

Aliasing/pixel dumping.

It's a nice photo cam, but video? No thanks.

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud At the end of the day what matters is what you see. And this cam has more than proven itself as far as video quality. Indeed, it does have some drawbacks but with the right techniques they can be greatly reduced or even eliminated. This cam has changed the filmmaking world by bringing truly cinematic quality video to the masses at an affordable price. But you sir are what we consider a "hater" and I believe there is medication for that...

[Black7Cloud]

@JoePaparazziTV Yeah, having an opinion makes me a hater. Haha. Sure, it has a nice sensor with great DOF/low light performance and it doesn't have a fixed lens, but that's about it. This video wants to make you think it's a replacement for high-end video cameras. What a joke. Can't you smell the PR machine at work?

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud When big "multi-billion dollar" networks are shooting full episodes of "House", "24" and tons of commercials without nary a complaint and its good enough for them; I guess your "opinion" really doesn't matter. Like I said before what you see is that what counts bro. And the quality speaks for itself PR machine or not. Get off the hater-aide man! 

[Black7Cloud]

@JoePaparazziTV LOL. Have you ever shot with a Red One camera, or any high-end video camera at all? Because your comments reek of ignorance. Just because you can't afford a decent cam, doesn't mean the 5Dm2 can match up with a high-end camera. If you really want to know, those TV series got paid by Canon to advertise the 5D as a video cam. Hence why they only used it for 1 episode. I have a friend working as DP for House. ;-) Quit your foolish trolling.

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud I tell you what bro. I'm not going to waste anymore time going back and forth with you on the capabilities of this camera. Those who can "see" embrace it. Those who can't see -- drink hateraide. Why don't you just tell this gentleman Christopher (who's video we're commenting on that his footage for "The Trainer" sucks because he shot it with a 5D.

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud You don't know me or anything about me nor do I feel the need to brag or really make this known but I make my living, pay my mortgage, carnote and very expensive student loan payments leasing, selling and demo'ing high-end cams everyday. This is honestly the reason why I feel the way I do about the 5D. To do what it does for the "pennies" I paid for it is amazing to me compared to the other cams that I own and have used over the years including the Red One amongst others.

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud And please tell me what's your so-called friend's name because if he's a DP on the House lot then I probably know him too and maybe I should be having this convo with him instead of you. But then again with a name like "Black Cloud" no wonder you're a pessimist! Have a good one man but you need a hug or some pu**y or something! Trust me it works wonders for your character.

[JoePaparazziTV]

@Black7Cloud Consequently that "foolish trolling" comment??? Now that's was really funny though. I'm gonna use that at work today! But seriously cheer up dude!

[Black7Cloud]

@JoePaparazziTV Lol.

[Black7Cloud]

@JoePaparazziTV Also, i'd rather not have my image wobbling apart due to minimal movement.

[maitHfilms]

what is the little sd card slot plugin you used at 0:52 called and does the page just come up and you select the clips and pull them into your software?

[chillwill1970]

Very nice film making mate, by the way what kind of microphone did you have attached to your 5D Mark II? Thanks a lot.

[jeecreative]

can't wait to get one of these. has anyone got any recommendations on lenses when shooting film?

[mariettadesign]

@jeecreative 50mm f/1.2!

[griffinn2]

woowww exelente camara

[Superfoot]

Outstanding. What mic was use? Do you remember?

[barbgerry]

@dodgesxt With the EF lens (24-105) it was 3500.

[dcrap492]

What lens are you using in this?

[barbgerry]

I love my Canon 5D! Just got it last week. Results are fantastic. I'm with you, Christopher, I've only taken a few still images - mostly interested in the incredible video capability.

[skrupnik]

Hi, about quality in HD film.... can you compare this 5D against the new Rebel X2 eos 550d? Will be the same video quality? lees or more? Thank you...

[stanleyedwards3]

@skrupnik Same as the 550D but the 550D is cheaper. The reason for that is that the 5D has got more features for still photography,but do you really care if all you want is the video features?

[skrupnik]

@stanleyedwards3 thanks for your answer. Yes, my priority is Video. 550D isn´t Full Frame, are you sure the video feature it´s similar?

[stanleyedwards3]

@skrupnik Yes you are right , 550D is not full frame and it could be a deterrent for some photographer. But as a videographer i can guaranty you that the 550D is the same if not better on some level than the 5D, it does 24p and 25p natively. It does have certain limitations but these can be applied to all DSLR cameras, like aliasing, panning issues, over heating... but there are ways to work round these.

[Ambrossio100]

@skrupnik

Would the 7d, be a match on Video quality? i'm about to buy a 7d

[TeppTennis]
