Cat test footage - Canon 550d/t2i

This is a video test filmed with my new Canon 550d.
Lens: Standard 18-55mm kit lens with IS turned on.
I used a dolly for two of the shots, but everything else is handheld.
Settings: 1080x1920 (full HD), 25 fps.
The color correction was done in After Effects. A bit of white diffusion was applied with the magic bullet looks plug-in to make it look softer.

The weather was really grey and a bit rainy when I filmed this, so I'm very pleased with the result.

what kind of card? i just got the camera today with a class 4, going to get a class 6 in a couple weeks

[DesDrukStiv]

@Rhaabjorn Class 6. You can't use class 4 for video

@DesDrukStiv @DesDrukStiv Class 6 SDHC or SDXC? By the way, thanks for all the beautiful footage.

[DesDrukStiv]

@matrixhed You're very welcome(: I used a class 6 sdhc card. They are really cheap on ebay.

What did you use to Dolly? Did I see wheels on your tripod at the last few frames? Really gorgous film btw (:

[DesDrukStiv]

@Run4Life122

Thank you(:

If you look carefully you can see that the wheels are on tracks. So I used a dolly on tracks.

i have a question, how do you reduce noise while recording on the t3i? my ISO is set on auto

[matrixhed]

@DesDrukStiv Great! I just ordered a 16gig class 6 SDHC card with my t2i. And it was crazy cheap - $25.

@DesDrukStiv i just tried some video you can with class 4, but with higher quality videos it will have a buffer bar on the side and video stops when its full to record it all to memory
