5D around the world

Thank you Guy's,

I want to share with you something i posted somewhere else:

HDSLR with all its problems and shortcomings changed everything.
I started in the business 25 years ago shooting film and video.
I always believed that you could make the flat video look deeper while lighting it just like you would film,
when shooting Video I made everything I could to make it more cinematic by working wide open with ton of ND in front of the lens, primes, 35"-adapters but still was never happy,
The closest I got was with my Panasonic Varicam that felt like super 16” to me, the 720P was a bit softer then the F900 1080 (still too video due to it’s super sharpness) and the Varicam colors were very film like.

I almost fainted when I saw the 5D video for the first time and was one of the first in line to get it.
Since then I tested it capabilities and workflow extensively before convincing my clients to use it (sync is still their biggest drawback ) and been watching amazing things all of you are doing with it
This camera reminds me why I got into shooting in the first place. Suddenly after years I stopped shooting just for work and started going out shooting for fun while testing my new small rig.

Now when I see things like this: http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/st ... &surfModel

…And you just know there are more full sensor cameras coming from other companies soon, So i get filled with hope, finally we get the tools we always wanted and they are affordable too.

The future is bright and it all started with a still camera, just like the beginning of film.
Happy shooting, the future is bright
