I've written a blog post about the experience here http://www.dslrnewsshooter.com/2010...chinas-migrant-children-using-the-canon-550d/
 
That was a very moving piece you created there. Bravo!

What kinds of lenses and what kind of slider did you use for that? Thanks!

Very cool. Love to see narrated videos from these cameras. Production quality was very robust on this piece.
 
From the blog post linked above…

"For the shoot I used both my 550D cameras shooting at 1080/25p, one rigged for slider action and the other in a regular configuration. I had a good range of lenses with me. the Zeiss ZE 28mm f2, 50mm f1.4 and 85mm f1.4, the Tokina 11-16mm f2.8, a Canon 100mm 2.8 macro lens and a 135mm f2 Canon lens. To aid focus I fitted my Zacuto Z-finder – the same one I use with my other Canon cameras."
 
Man, that was really well done. I think you did a fantastic job with what seemed like a minimal setup. Thanks for inspiring me. :thumbsup:
 
Press,

How did you manage to get good exposure? Were you going directly off of the LCD screen through the z-finder?
 
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm really reconsidering this camera as a B cam for my GH-1. Or a substitute for lowlight situations...hell, I'm even curious to see the side by side comparison given the t2i's larger sensor, hmmm and 800 bucks body only, CMON!! thats a steal!!!

Nice film btw, pressphotographer, you may've swayed me- very impressive!!
