Andrew, does the old battery grip work with this new body?

Thanks for the front page article, very cool! :D

 

This is the fasted card I have Andrew. But I think the camera is the limiting factor. 1592 is the maximum width of the live view in 1x mode. You can go to 1900-something in 5x zoom. I think my card is faster than 50MB/s as well but probably like the 5D2 the 50D has a limitation in the CF controller. Would make sense since it's an old beast. Probably I can test faster cards soon!

 

Rendering a video with the extreme iso's, will let you know when it's up, would be nice if you could add it to the article!

 

/edit: need sleep.. footage tomorrow :)

Anyone want to take me through the mundane workflow of making a 50d video ready? I understand they don't come with video out of the box - what's the hack needed to make it film operational? Is there also a ML alpha firmware out there to do what Julian has accomplished?
