7D has manual control 1080p 24/25/30p and 720p 50/60p

The tokina 11-16/2.8 is famous. It's currently being rehoused by two companies for PL application. That alone is a testament to its power.
 
Would you say the same for its other 2.8 brothers? The tokina 16-50/2.8 is the one I'm looking as it covers the most common FOV ranges.
 
Can I offically say i told you so.

Not to be a Jerk but for a while anytime I tried to discuss future VDSLR's my posts got moved to 'DVX cafe' ie no one read them. I guess my tone could of been better but after being constantly moved it got annoying.

My point is and I will repeat it for the criminally stupid. You guys speculated and discussed to death the GH1 for months. So why can' you allow discussion and yes speculation of upcoming VDLRS's. Sure ask the mods to create a forum for it, but until then let them be discussed and let people speculate and get excited about the new wave of DSLR's of which many I'm sure you will agree will have video capabilities. And just like the GH1 speculation was all over the D90 thread don't be negative about future speculation and developments.)
 
I would think so, but not 100% sure. Point me at a file to download and I'll try it.

Thanks Barry but I don't know where to find a file at the moment. I will wait until I get the camera. Hopefully in less time than I was waiting for the GH1 that never came. Thanks.
 
actually with HDR you'd probably want to use AperturePriority so you're not throwing your plane of focus back and forth and blurring some things
 
Barry, can h264 be edited on Edius 5? Thanks.
Thanks to those who pointed out the files, I've now tested.

Yes, EDIUS 5 works perfectly, just drag and drop. Has about the same performance as native AVCHD files (not surprisingly, as both are h.264!)

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.1: worked fine. But not as fast as AVCHD.

Sony Vegas 8.0: worked fine; 720p mode gave me about 11fps, 1080/24p mode about 4fps, but it worked.

Newtek SpeedEdit 1.5.5: worked fine, had pretty fast playback rates too.

And, of course, I'm sure Apple FCP users will be thrilled because the 7D records directly to Quicktime files, presuming that they can also execute a drag 'n' drop workflow.
 
Nooo...I thought I had made it yesterday, but Adorama just notified me that my camera is backordered. Definitely not good news.

EDIT: Nevermind - complete overreaction. It was just a generic email sent out by the system because the actual item isn't yet in stock. I was given an est. Oct. 9th delivery date. We'll see...could be earlier or later she says.

I think I missed something. The 7D records footage as QT files as well. So I can dump just like I do with the HVX with no conversion? forgive my noobness but that would be amazing, barring any loss in image quality.

It gives FCP the same functionality as basically every other editor has with tapeless footage. Shoot the footage, plug the card into the computer, and edit. No Log & Transfer step.
