The camera is great for night time filming!!!

I was actually just here last week and it was cold as hell for Florida. But I posted some videos as well of my Canon Vixia HF20 HD camcorder. Canon is great! Your vids look great!

The colors are so vibrant and clear! It was very nice! :D

Fantastic！

Sure didn't see the video noise you complained about. Well done.

Great great great job! Thanks for putting this together. Seeing Disneyworld through a 5D is just marvelous.

[suzannalcooper]

very well done! I love the clarity and how everything is brought to life especially with the fireworks! I hope to get a camera like this someday. Very well done indeed!

You did a good job on this! Great Editing! Great Filming! A camera like that must cost a fortune!

[bdubrecords]

@Chicago10281 Thanks! A little over $3,000...

great video my friend

[Quintinlicious]

what kind of lens did you use

[bdubrecords]

This was all done with the kit lens (f/4 zoom lens).

[Quintinlicious]

wow during illuminations how did you get so close to that fireworks barge near the finale

[bdubrecords]

We booked a Grand Gathering for that night that included an International Dinner Buffet and then a viewing of Illuminations from a special reserved area. We also taped it from another location a few days before. That's how we got two camera views near the end!

Amazing footage! I am now so much more closer to making my decision to buy the 5D. Thank you for sharing!

What equipment did you use?

[bdubrecords]

Just the 5D Mark II and the kit f/4 lens.  Plus Premiere Pro CS4 to edit!

[bdubrecords]

I have a little Canon VIXIA camcorder too, and let me tell you... you'll be blown away by how much better the video is with the 5D. With some tweaks, you can get really saturated colors and great depth-of-field control. But the audio won't be as good. And it won't be interlaced, so it will be a little choppy on a traditional CRT TV. I never have noticed any shutter roll. I've tried some extremely fast panning and seen a little roll, but that was faster than I would ever really pan.

Wow! The video quality of the night time fireworks display is amazing. I can't believe this was shot with an F/4 lens. My 5D mk2 arrives in a few days and I'm hoping the video quality is as good as my Canon HFS100. One question: Do you notice a lot of shutter roll when panning or shooting moving objects?

[webbo04]

Great video, The firework sections are amazing! Nothing else on youtube compares! How much are you talking for one of these things?

[bdubrecords]

Thanks!!! The going rate for the camera and lens combo I used is about $3,500.

[Valkonnen]

That was so great!!! I'm going......

The camera is great too..I own one, and it takes better HD video than any that I've ever seen.

Great Job!!

What lens did you use.

Thanks

This was the one that comes with the kit -- EF 24-105mm f/4L

Did you not upload this HD? I don't see an HD icon.

[bdubrecords]

YouTube takes a while to process HD video. Low quality is available for about an hour, and then HD is available after further processing. The HD option should be available now!
