7D Native File at 60p...

Let's just say that I did not notice the aliasing all that much in the video footage provided at first, so I think there is a little too much "hunting" going on for this sort of thing.

Exactly! I was too busy looking at that cool jump to notice any minor artifacts and if I didn't know this was a test for a new camera I would have never noticed probably. Really, I love to hang around camera forums but sometimes people just cracks me up with all the nitpicking and hair splitting. I think if all the energy put on looking for imperfections in camera images was put into writing good scripts and actually making good movies, camera forums would be cranking some serious material that would put Hollywood to shame even without the budget.



Surely not beyond terrible. Beyond terrible would be if I was seeing 3 jumpers, with scanning lines going up all over the image.

This is the truth!

all the nitpicking and hair splitting.

I don't agree. Gr8 scripts deserve gr8 cameras (also the right tool for the job). Nitpicking and hair splitting is how the characteristics of the tools are defined beyond the level of any viewer. There's more to art than art you know...

Surely nitpicking is what got us where we are now. Nitpicking made Canon give up the Manual Controls on the 5D. And now we have 24, 25 AND 30p in the 7D.

So yeah, necessary evil.

This is pretty terrible 720P. If I ever accidentally shoot 720 on this camera I'll slit my bicep open and stick Chile Picante Corn Nuts in the wound... then lift weights for three hours non stop.

That is so freaking funny Kholi! I would continue to read this forum even if I weren't into making movies. For entertainment purposes only!

I will say it is a little scary to see aliasing problems on this camera. Aliasing is NOT an easy problem to work around. It makes me glad that I didn't order yet. I was one of the people on the first D90 wave. I want to thank Kholi and a bunch of others for being such die hards and jumping at every legit new camera and testing for the rest of us. You guys rock! (And you're sooooooo freakin funny!)
