At the rate these cameras are dropping that struck me as funny.

lol I'd love to pick it up day one but I've my hands far in other things so I'll get around to my leisure by then... But you are right the "next big thing" will probably be jumping out of the woodworks and then everyone else will jump to it
 
Unfortunately, getting one and not being on a PreOrder list is probably gonna be hard as hell.
 
I could be wrong, but I don't think it will be that hard to get this camera. I know the 5DMkII is in short supply but I think that's because it's full frame and yields on the sensor aren't as good as with the smaller APS-C. Well, at least I hope they will be able to meet demand, which will be coming from both still photographers and videographers. That's a good problem to have, I suppose.

This is just a hobby for me, so I'm going to wait a few more months for the dust to settle before ordering.
 
I'm excited about this little camera here but if there happens to be a shortage I don't think Canon would be too far behind the curb on meeting the demand eventually.

i am a patient fellow and in the need to produce a particular project I can still use a lot of other things I have access to- just without the fun of playing with a new toy:-/ lol Release time and Christmas season I wouldn't be surprised at this camera being the hardest thing around to find however...

Thing is the dust doesn't seem to settle anymore. Just as its about to another mega all u ever wanted in a cheap camera drops. Right now there's several cameras rumored to be unveiled next week. The buy when u need axiom is truer than ever.
 
Great video Phillip! Thanks a lot for taking the time to make it. Not only does it reaffirm my 7D pre-order, it also makes me want to visit Dublin!

Again, awesome work.

That's true, things are changing rapidly. There are rumors of a Canon video camera at IBC but I personally don't think that will happen. I'd love for it to happen, but realistically it feels like it's too soon because they need to develop servo EF video lenses and an AF system for it.

A new 1D series from Canon is also rumored by the end of the month but that will be out of my price range and it'd be too big. At this point the 7D seems safe to get because for me it's just a hobby and I'm not risking a lot of money in depreciation like in the old days when you had to pay $3K+ for an XH-A1 or something like that. I'm also a still photographer and am itching to get my first DSLR so I can use my existing Canon L lenses again. I've been holding out for full frame on the still side but the cost is still too high.

I just want to hear the reports from the people who get the 7D first to better understand any limitations with the camera (both from the still and video sides).

So is Hollywood shot 35mm movie film. I have no idea what people see in the grainy awful looking footage from the D90 and D300s, unless you want that 16mm retro look. That is not the look of 99% of big budget movies out there. They don't have that look neither the dizzying in and out of focus shots. It is clean and very sharp.

As far as aliasing on the 7D footage from Philip download the file. In no way compares to the Vimeo version. Very negligible aliasing on the downloded file. Great work again Philip Bloom.

I agree too. The 300s looks lifeless and so muted and just doesn't pop out at ya.. unless that's the intended look and it was graded like that, but most of the nikon stuff I've seen just looks blah..
 
This is beautiful! Thanks Philip!! :)

And it's a sign too; back when I was in high school, Metallica's cover of Thin Lizzy's "Whisky in the Jar" was my favourtie song!! :)

Also, was this shot with 35mm EF lens? (sorry if that sounds like a stupid question, I don't know much about lenses lol)
 
Great Video! Only gives me more hope :)

Vimeo won't let me download the .mov, something about it being downloaded too many times. Does someone feel like uploading to an alternate location? Pretty please?:grin:
 
Thanks Mr. Bloom, you've done it again and proven to us why the big guys go to you. But thank you so much for taking time out of your super busy schedule to shoot, edit and post this for us. It really does mean alot.

Well I can see my HVX - Letus combo getting flicked VERY soon. I have barely even used the letus, but the resolution on these DSLR's is so much better than my grungy HVX. And WAAAAYYY less hassle to set up and knock off a few shots.

The old HVX can still hang with 'em.:grin: BUT.....I will be getting a 7D myself and if I find myself not touching the ODB I will sell it.
 
Wow. Pretty nice.

At 3:05 there's a blocking artifact in the upper right corner. Is that just a vimeo thing or was is recorded that way?
