hey chip. anything specific you're looking for? i can try to shoot a few minute of footage for you sometime this week. just pm me with ISOs, framerate, focal length, etc. that you want.
Slim, no, nothing special, I need to run a few workflow scenarios with the raw unconverted footage through several programs like Avid, Edius & ProCoder. It can be 15 seconds of footage of a wall for all I care.
Keith, the links have a .mov extenson on the end so they have already been converted to a qt file (unless that's the way they come out of the camera that I didn't know about and if that's the case all my workflow problems are solved ).
AFAIK they do come out as .mov files. You can pull them into Avid as DNxHD. I found this out when I was first thinking of getting a 5D, and thought better of it with the 30 fps nonsense, plus the moire.
now I'm holding out for a better codec.

Are there any more sources to download original 5D footage? Some of the links above show the weaknesses of the camera and the Laforet's full resolution "Reverie" clips have been removed. I understand the shortcomings of this camera but would like to see its strengths too, under controlled lighting and outdoors if possible. Would appreciate some links.
