  • Cannon 5D Mark II-Change Shutter Speed in Movie Mode?!

    Posted by Garrett Bradley on February 14, 2009 at 2:56 am

    Hi there,
    I’m a student and just rented the new cannon 5D Mark II camera from Sammy’s.
    I’m having a problem figuring out how to adjust the shutter speed and ISO for movie mode. It seems to not translate when I try to film, only when I’m taking still images.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Any suggestions would be really appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Apparently the new MK II only shoots video at 30p.

    There is no “real” manual control of ISO, aperture, or shutter speed in movie mode. It is set up to be fully auto. There are some hacks to get around the limitations but they are not optimal.
