  • Low Light movies with Canon EOS D550

    Posted by Rainer Bergomaz on April 24, 2010 at 8:19 pm

    How is it possible to record movies with ISO at 6.400 or even at high setting (ISO 12.800). I get only an ISO of 3.200 while recording in movie mode.

    Thanks
    Charles

    I’m not sure about the ISO settings for the 550D because I haven’t gotten mine yet. But a good way to get clean low light footage is to get a fast prime lens. Such as the Canon 50mm f/1.8 it sells for around 100 dollars, and with that big of an aperture you can get great low light stuff. Which lens are you using?
