  1. Sorry but this story about 4k cameras threatening DSLRs because (some) people may pull still images from video sounds like a world of bull crap to me, I have yet to be in a situation as a stills photographer were a continuous 4k burst at shutterspeeds ranging between 1/50 and 1/240 would be useful, let a lone practical. And if, in all seriousness, somebody will come along and tell me that dealing with terabites of raw video frames for a still or two just not to miss the right moment is the way to go I'd have to suggest that person to find a different occupation...
  2. Canon actually admits the 5DIII is a film-making tool? Would love to be there just to see them giving lessons on how to use it without Magic Lantern on it...
  3. Hi Andrew,    I have been reading your blog for a while and have always liked your posts but have probably become a regular only now that the whole RAW thing came up, that alone exceeded even my wildest dreams! First of all I'd like to say is: Thank you! Ever since I can remember I am running around with (video - the name alone somehow sucks) cameras pursuing my life long dream of capturing cinematic images (and I did not have the pleasure of a formal education in the field with the chance of ever shooting on real film) it has been a long way full of disappointments, getting the 5D2 was a great leap ahead, not only because of the camera itself but because of how much more information became accessible to regular folks like me. And this why I'd like to say thank you! Thanks for sharing and for thinking of the community! Thanks for the passion and for making all this magic accessible to the people! That said, I'll probably have to stop visiting your blog; seeing all your toys (especially all those anamorphics!) just makes me way too gear porn addicted, then you top it up by putting my favorite song of all times (of the probably most complete album ever created) onto your latest video, too much for me to handle really! No but for real, thanks a lot!   Greetings from Kenya,   Raul
