The point being missed about DSLR video.
-
Some people are carrying such heavy bags of preconceived ideas, they cannot embrace change. While others are rushing to produce quality images their bank account would have never allowed previously, thanks to dslrs.
I’m not a video guy, but from a cynical point of view how did the professional video camera manufacturers get away with charging $10k+ for such tiny sensors. ;D
I love what I can do with my 7D and keep getting the WOW!

I would love to experience the “Wow” factor…someone please buy me a 7D and some lenses…please???
I love the content these DSLRs are making, and I feel like I’m missing out on a great era.

Concur Bill. We were talking at NAB that it was 3 NAB’s ago that RED had the cool booth showing Epic and Scarlet mock-ups that were coming “soon”. Sadly, RED won’t even pay for a booth anymore, just use the marketing goodwill of NAB in getting a 100,000 people to Vegas and saying off to the side “pssst… hey come over here to this crappy hotel and check out our stuff”.
Aside from 3D everywhere you turned – it was a DSLR show this year. Seeing Canon footage on a 15′ screen in the Canon theater just confirmed that these cameras are good enough for ANY kind of production – even with their issues. The ultimate moment for me was seeing a Zeiss 15-45 wide angle cinema zoom with a EF mount on a 7D! Thing of beauty.
Fun times…

Great thread and excellent observations. We started getting links to DSLR videos from our customers late last year, bragging about what they could do with a 5D or 7D. I was blown away from the first one, and they just kept coming and getting better.
Back in late January we reached out to Canon and suggested they help us with a DSLR workflow guide. They came through and the guide has been a big hit on our website. I’ve just updated it for the latest NAB announcements.
