YouTube is not really the nest medium to see video, and the 7d and 60d use same sensor and 1.6 crop factor. The flip screen on the 60d makes it more versatile for video .
Fabulous, really loved it - what an endorsement for the Canon 7D's video capabilities! What is that fantastic music that accompanies this - does anybody know?
@esperantomusica Yea! Videos for every camera vary so much from video to video on youtube! I don't know which camera to committ to when there is such mixed reviews.
I want the best camera for video and everyone says there is no AF for video in these DSLR's but then you see great video like this or even better and say WTF! Are they just using high aperture to get everything in focus?
@whole27 im not sure,even in best buy i've been told the 7D is much better than the others like 5D, 60D,etc. what i meant about my videos lookin like garbage is cuz of the noise on the image,whether the ISO is how or low
Fantastic. China is really one of the best places in the world for night photography. Everything is so colorful there. Though, I like the down and out provinces more than up north.
@MyBriefFilms Maybe he shot it in 720p. Or also I think it has something to do with the render settings or maybe the upload settings used. I'm not too sure.
@MyBriefFilms A lot of people use the Canon EOS 7D's 720p setting because it records at 60 Frames per second... which allows for some awesome slow motion in post :)
Bullshit.. I just come back from one month in Shanghai and I can say chinese people are the most rude, uncivilised, uneducated people I EVER SAW.. I just could have kill some of them if I wasn't in their country. My wife is chinese living in France and she was ashamed as well. Inhumans, full of hate, gold diggers, my god I cannot see any chinese anymore.
Anyone reading this : please don't be fooled, this video is kind of a fiction.
Nice video. How did you feel about the 7D in low light situation, and were you satisfy with the audio features? I am debating since it is not full frame... but a very very solid camera for video.
i have got canon 7d.please tell me.first of all how can i load my video.should i open acvhd at adobe premiere pro?and what are other selections.and what is convert selection for hd,good video.thanks.
Hi Dan, really liked your video and am interested in your training video. I recently just purchsed the new Sony Nex-vg10 as it is a little more conventional for me for the type of filming i am doing at the moment. I was wondering if i would be able to put your training video to use with my sony or is it meant for canon user's? I am also very very tempted to sell the sony and purchase the new Canon 7d. I'm on the professional tennis circuit and have always had a huge interest in film etc.
I like how the Westerners are all super awkward about you filming them... haha. Amazing quality, I'm so excited to get this camera! Thanks for the upload, it really helps me see what's in store :)
What software did you use for editing/putting it together? And what did you save it as before uploading to Youtube?? (it looks beautiful! not jagged/pixelated at all) THANKS!!
Loved the video. I'm debating on getting the canon 7D or just going for a standard professional video camera, because I'm really not interested in taking stills. Maybe you can help me out.
Which rig did you use and did it have follow focus? I was also wondering if you encountered any compatabilitly issues when importing your video into an editing program? Also, what kind of CF card space to the amount of HD footage are we looking at? Thanks
@guardiansnapper I just want to shoot candid music vids with this type of quality, is it the lens, the editing, or what, that creates a vid with such clarity? (you can tell i'm a novice). I am looking into purchasing this camera
@guardiansnapper that 50mm 1.2 is a beauty but damn expensive. for people looking for similar results you can get the 50mm 1.4 for around 300-380 euro and the 50mm 1.8 II for around 100! You should achieve similar results as he get in this video for the 50mm shots at least.
your video inspired me to buy a canon 7D! - I was wondering if you could share your setup for this shoot, what lens, ISO setting, F, mode, capture rate, is the finished sound from the camera or did you take it with an out board digital recorder? - thanks for your time - keep the video's coming!
I didn't know they had slackers in China. I thought that the Communist Party had the people chained to the assembly lines which produce crap for the U.S. market.
Hi, was just wondering what compression you used for the upload of this video. I use compressor and and having trouble achieving the same quality. Another problem I'm getting with footage from this camera uploaded to youtube is a slight jitteryness and horizontal flickering lines occasionally.

Great video. I've been thinking about getting the 7d and have been asking around about what I heard about only being able to shoot 12 minutes of video. Is this true, and if so, is there anyway around that?
@DoorwaysAndMeander The 7d will shoot 4 Gb of video before stopping. That means 12 minutes at 1920 x 1080 or 1280x720 but 24 minutes at 640x480 (I think you can also get longer time at 1280x720 w/ 30 fps vs 60)

@DoorwaysAndMeander The 7d will shoot 4 Gb of video before stopping. That means 12 minutes at 1920 x 1080 or 1280x720 but 24 minutes at 640x480 (I think you can also get longer time at 1280x720 w/ 30 fps vs 60)
