To get that great film look just use an Arri 435 Extreme with Vision 3 stock. It never fails.

Great-looking footage. I have a D90 and I wish it had 1080p. Oh well, I have to wait for Nikon's next upgrade like the D400. I hope it has lots of manual controls and 1080p.

If Nikon comes up with a D400 with 1080p24 with full manual control for $1,999, the 5D is officially dead.

The key here is to dry the insides. I remember when people would drop their pagers or cell phones into the toilet, they would put it in a sock and throw it into the dryer. It works after that.

Yes!
This can only mean that more third party SxS cards will develop. I just hope prices plummet soon. It's tough to work with just 2 8gig cards.
