Canon 550D with Canon f/1.8 50mm test

Watch as I try to find focus with the 50mm f1.8 lens I bought yesterday for my new Canon 550D.

The video features some cool cats.

It was all shot at 1920x1080 25p, ingested as Apple Pro Res LT via FCP and the Canon EOS plugin.

I bought the upgrade to Magic Bullet Colorista II as well a few days ago so I used it to push some colours around in this clip.

@thehadgi - i remember it being smooth enough to throw the focus around, but not the smoothness of lenses i have used on higher end video cameras (obviously) - but good fun and for the price it's a steal

@KennyQuilla1 ye it does, but you just have to put an external mic on it.
