T2i : 1 minute of random footage.

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

First time outside with the camera. Some water, trees, a rack focus here and there. Hand-held but not too shaky.
Let me know what you think.

Can't do Vimeo at the moment so here's a QuickTime.

Outside with the T2i

Ah….so you’ve crossed over to the DSLR realm. Is this your new main tool or will you be using it in conjunction with your HV20? I think they would make a nice couple.

...still downloading 4 me.

Had to get rid of the HV20, flying solo with the T2i. Picked up the 50mm as well but didn't use it in any of this footage, just the stock lens.

It's about 170MB so it may take a bit depending on your speed.

Looks good Mike, good luck with the new cam!

Beautiful! Hate to see the HV20 go, but... life goes on. I really like the T2i.
It looks every bit as good as the 7D IMHO. (just make sure you don't 'rack' us to deathrogar-BigGrin(DBG))

How are you going to control that on your crane?

 

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

Thanks, guys!

Zaza, first thing I need is a tripod for my crane.
Secondly, not sure what you mean by control but I figure I'll use it much like I did when I borrowed a crane for CFTFB.
It seemed to work well with the HV20.

I used it to rise up from Ian's foot to his face starting at the 3:04 mark, then to close in on the book at the 4:22 mark and finally to swing in on Ian at the 5:20 mark.

Is that what you mean or are you talking focus issues?

Really looking forward to using this camera for a short film soon. No worries though, maybe one or two rack focus' at most.

It looks beautiful. What a difference from Vimeo or You Tube. Is this 1080p?

Thanks. Shot in 1080p but this QuickTime is half the resolution.
960 x 540

Otherwise the file size would have been considerable.

Thanks for checking it out!

Footage looks nice.

I know how much you liked using the naked HV20 so I think with this tool you can get even more creative. You're gonna like that 50mm (aside from its real cheap build)...from all the footage I've seen from it....it's sharp. Only reason I don't have that particular one is because I already have an old Takumar 50mm that I love.

I enjoyed the footage Mike!

Good stuff,

Kegan

Thanks again, guys.

Just posted a low light clip HERE with the 50mm. Sharp it is.
