Canon EOS Digital 5D Mark II - Backflip

[sclogse1]

Overgrown tongue dude tooling around in the shed...and this hyped soundtrack....

5D video footage looks like video....and what's the deal with sharpening settings? You pay around 2600 for this camera...can mount zeiss N converted lenses on it, and without sharpening, which adds to the video look, the imagery (video mode) looks soft. With a full frame sensor, 1080P, why does someone need to add sharpening? Why aren't the images sharp without it?

what software did you use to edit it ?

[mydigitaleye]

i wanted to know, how exactly did you mount this to your bike? can you post shots somewhere?

I have an MKII and want to do something similar

[prodesign3r]

Wait Wait Wait..

You..

You mounted a 2700 dollar D-SLR to a bike?

No doubt it's safe enough, but.. you wouldn't see me even picking my D-SLR up without a parade of straps to my face, shoulders, and feet..

SAFETY FIRST!! i'm locked into a nice long payment plan.. :D

People comment on the poor quality of the Nikon D90 videos, but the one's I've seen are mostly hand-held and used like family-movie camcorders. I have not seen a Canon video yet that zooms in and out fast with a moving subject or pans quickly, they are all fixed cameras and, while pretty, scenes are very staged looking--- are there examples of 'casual' hand-held Canon videos shot in comparison to the Nikon? I am genuinely curious to see a 'consumer' grade Canon video.

im guessing this is a 15mm fisheye lens and one heck of a camera clamp mount maybe bolt -on mount to keep camera were its mounted as it gets heavy with camera/lens combination

[Redturtleproductions]

nice lucky it didnt come off lol

I wanted to see a backflip from the foot camera perspective

the weight probably threw him off though..

[Sprengstoff]

By the way, how do you attach the camera? Is a superclamp enough?

[Sprengstoff]

Nooo way!!!? With the MKII on the bike!!? You have some balls! or some very skilled riders :)

Great videos. I've got a Canon XTI (a plethora of lenses) and a Canon HV30. I've been thinking about a 5D MKII as an early Christmas gift. Curious... do you have any pics or video of the mount you were using on the bike?

you did a da*n backflip with a 5d mark ii bolted to the frame? wow!
