    Excellent Vimeo clip!
    And finally someone who does the testing right;
    all cameras are tweaked for the optimal settings they can achieve under one lighting set-up,
    and all of the footage is actually color-corrected so you can focus on the image and gamma detail, DOF etc. versus the different casts inherent in each format. I was amazed at how well the HVX-200 stood up (especially with the adapters added) and I was kind of disappointed in the 5D footage, as I have seen much better work come from those, but that again could be attributable to the quality of lens used and operator. Much better effort than the early “film versus digital” shootouts, where a seasoned DP would tweak the settings on the film camera, and the HD camera was used with default settings right out of the box.
