Canon XL1s Film Look Test

Using Sony Vegas 8.0 Pro and color correcting, I shot this using a Canon XL1s with a 16x lens in 16:9 Frame Mode to give it a film-look effect. I was very impressed with the results.

@brenan6 The 5D costs more than this camera. Thus your point about follow focus is invalid. XLR input?

At the end of the day it would cost more using DSLR to get to the same level of professional shooting.

You have a point that DSLRs are powerful, and taking on, but your wrong in saying that a DSLR would simply be better than a Canon XL

[brenan6]

@bigredrobot26 Ok... are you saying that you dont need all that stuff with an XL1? Becuase you would... youre going to need an external sound system either way, only a stupid knob would use the cameras microphone. The follow focus is built into the higher end DSLR like the canon 5D, and why would you need a shoulder mount? The most youd need is a small home made steady-cam. Besides, why are you so loyal to the XL1, its not even HD... what a moron. "hell yeah, SD video at 30 FSP! AWESOME!"

@brenan6  Yea a DSLR, along with a full rail kit, external mic, external sound recorder, follow focus, shoulder mount. Yea, sure that would work out cheaper than a xl1. Doche

[brenan6]

ehh, just get a DSLR with video. looks way better, its cheaper, and its not nearly as douchey as the XL1
