I was brought to the attention of page 620 in the Canon 7D instruction manual recently. The article I read had the title:
"Why Our Civilization's Video Art and Culture is Threatened by the MPEG-LA"
[http://mobile.osnews.com/story.php/23236/Why-Our-Civilizations-Video-Art-and-Culture-is-Threatened-by-the-MPEG-LA/
The article talks about a little piece of legal speak in the back of the instruction manual that all canon dslr cameras have. In brief, the manual says that we (the camera owners) cannot use footage shot on the camera for commercial purposes, unless the camera owners pay the licensing fees for the codec.
Go on, give it a look, I'll wait.
Now there is a bit of legal speak, but I think this is a fine piece of material to discuss.
