Ask any photographer wannabe about the video capture feature in their precious Digital SLR, chances are they hate it or prefer other improvement rather than motion capture in their still image camera. Like it or not, this video thing is the next core feature for Digital SLR; future releases without the video gimmick would be considering a step down or fall short of expectation.Nikon's D90 claimed the world's first DSLR with movie mode in 720p, Canon replied with a full 1080p HD recording with 5D successor. What's next? 4K resolution, 24fps , or a built-in audio mic? Whatever that it's heading, I'm very exciting with this new video feature. Just think of the ability to use a high quality tilt-shift, macro, wide angle, fish eye or the supertele lenses to capture video. The possibility is endless! and i can't wait to go back on the field again. If only Canon get this puppy out on the street sooner. Meanwhile, check out the 5D Mark II video recording samples from Canon at Korean and Japanese site or you prefer the high iso still images.
