thanks for looking and look forward hearing from you.
cheers,
Mike

Wonderful and enchanting. Thank you!

Nice. I also *REALLY* liked Rock&Roll with Daniela. You're right, she's an awesome model. That music was perfect for her look, too, in my opinion. Great video!

thanks afkenner and pixelwarp!

Very nice Mike. You seem to be producing amazing results with the 5DII. What do you have to say in terms of difference between the 5DII and the Nikons you used before?

Great video. I enjoyed it, especially the technicality and angles displayed. Also the exposure / colors add a lot to this production.

thanks Charbel. I do like the D90 a lot. before the canon firmware upgrade to allow manual video control i was not interested in the 5dmk2. manual exposure makes all the difference, not sure what is taking nikon so long. both cameras are pretty amazing. I guess the canon has more sex appeal because of the full frame and the 1080p size. honestly, i prefer 720p. seriously, how many times are you going to watch the movie in full resolution? it is easier on the cpu and speeds up the work flow.
back to comparing the two: the canon is better in low light, no doubt. but the nikon is not far behind.

Thanks Mike. I like the sex appeal comment. I'm taking my 5DII to the bar tonight see if I can pick up a date...

Watched several of your videos, very nice. I have a 5DII and never even tried the video. Thanks for the inspiration Mike. What firmware allows the manual video? I need to make sure on mine.
