First let me apologise in advance if this has been posted somewhere already or something. If it has or hasn't, I was so impressed with this clip that I just had to start this thread. Amazing stuff, have a look:

(Absolutely love the shot @ 2:39 !! )
 
It was posted on the back end of Philip's post, but this is SOOOOOO GOOD it deserves it's own thread!!!!
A-FREAKING-MAZING!
 
Great piece, I love the intimacy of this. It's awesome how people are totally unaware of the camera.
 
Awesome!

On a side note, how soon before that one kid gets diagnosed with lung cancer?

I know right, that was sooo sad, but that's life in a developing country, I hate going back to India myself, the abject poverty is ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING AND CRUSHING :(
 
Beautiful, the more and more I see footage from the 7d the more I realize that it has problems with the highlights, it clips really easy, am I crazy? someone shine in

I feel sorry for the kid because his parents allowed this to happen.

But yeah, I noticed the lack of Jello.
 
WTF, he claims that the footage wasn't graded. :shocked: OMG...

This is miles ahead of "Reverie" as a pre-production look at what a camera can do. Sorry to say this Philip, but it's even better than yours.

In this context (DVXuser) it IS the most important thing to get out of this clip.
There are many other places online to discuss social commentary.
We're here to discuss the camera.

Thanks.
 
Nice camera moves really helped sell those shots. Loved the way the codec treated the strong primary colors like orange, red and yellow near the start. They did not seem to 'float' at all.
 
It looks like it was graded ,too contrasty sometimes ,but also 5d looks like that most of the time(too crisp)

Also remember you can change your "gamma" curve via the picture profile, so if you want to get more highlights in - you should eb able to. The camera is 14Bit, but the end result is 8-bit, you have to figure out what you need/want in the shot and prepare for that.
 
agreed 2:39 was the stand out shot. the rest of the footage has that uber clean HD video feel. super nice cinematic HD but not filmlike. i feel like the GH1 and 5D and the 7D all have that same look. i hope it can be graded out...

can this thing do a custom curve in camera? on separate RGB channels?? if it does then we should be sweet.
