    This is where I get confused. If h.264 is highly compressed, how can converting to another format bring back color information that was not there from the start?

    Just to make sure I understand, I’ll ingest the h.264 clips from the cards and convert them to ProRes 4:2:2 for use in After Effects? Is ProRes4:2:2 the best format to use in AE, especially in chromakeying?

    Anthony, do you mean accept the h.264 in your machine and convert to another format? I’m also a bit confused on this matter.

    The best ways should be to capture 4:2:2 out from the HDMI port, but as far as I know, the 5D is incapable of that.

    Thanks, Anthony.

    If using the same lens and the 5D shows shallower depth of field, this could mean that the 5D utilizes a larger sensor area for video compared to the 7D. Am I correct in saying this?

    Sorry, I was referring to another post. Do you think an Azden cam-3 mixer (https://www.azdencorp.com/new/product.php?productid=93302) will do the job? I’ll plug it in the 3.5mm jack (where the shotgun mic goes) and use sennheiser wireless UHF lavs? By saying “will do the job” I mean the noise level. Thanks everyone. Happy new year, too.

    I’ll be plugging it in the 3.5 jack where the shotgun mic goes. What do you think?

    Hi Bob,

    Yes, you are right. I’m talking about the skewing of the image. I can pan slowly to prevent image skewing. But my concern is more on subjects that move fast. Like if an actor is running or worse, if a speeding bus enters the frame. If the 7D or 5D doesn’t have problem on those, that will be great! I’m looking into using 50mm f1.4 or f1.8 lens because the wider aperture will blur my background better. What is your experience on a 50mm 1.4 or 1.8 lens on a 7D? Thanks a lot, Bob.

    I think I’ve read somewhere, also here at the Cow, that you should not blur your background. I’m not sure if I understood that correctly…
