Dublin's People- First short film Shot on 7D

Philip Bloom has been at this for over 20 years. So when a new piece of equipment comes out he is the obvious choice to turn to to find out how that equipment works. In this case we are speaking of course about the highly anticipated and debated Canon 7D. What did we learn from this short? Well besides the obvious, that Philip Bloom is an amazingly talented filmmaker and has a wealth of knowledge that he shares freely with the filmmaking community... We learned this. Any doubts about the Canon 7D's capabilities have been squashed. Is it as good as the 5D MKII strictly speaking about image quality. Of course not. Is it however, a highly capable DSLR in regards to capturing great HD Video in low light situations. Yes. Does it offer the 24p. Yes. As well as 60 p,50p (when shooting 720p) and 24p,25p,and 30p (when shooting 1080p) These are exciting times we live in if your a filmmaker or even a fan. Stay tuned for our coverage of WEVA. Where Philip Bloom and Den Lennie of F-Stop Academy will be presenters.

Canon 35mm Sensor

From Australia
"At our @#$$$%%  meeting last week, a rep from our major local pro video supplier told us that he’d been told by Canon that they expect to release a sub 10K prosumer camera with a 35mm sensor around April next year." WOWSERS!! Yeah it's probably just a rumor but remember when the 5d mkii was and then the 7d was... exciting times we live in.

No one would be crazy enough to mount a 5D Mark II to a helmet and ride down a mountain.Right?

Wrong! Tom Guilemette is crazy enough to do just that. This man attached a 5D to a helmet and went mountain biking!! I don't even know what to say about this other then I am way too much of a pansy to ever attempt anything like this. Also kids don't try this at home. Tom is a trained professional any attempts to recreate the stunts in this video will most likely end in injury or a completely destroyed DSLR. Anyway with out further ado check out
