"Canon Philippines lent us a pre-production model of the 7d. We got it Tuesday 6pm and had to return it the following Thursday at noon. We wanted to document something truly Filipino and came up with the idea of shooting a "Perya". There really is no direct equivalent in English. It's not as grand as a carnival, not as permanent and posh as an amusement park, there are no pumpkins nor cows in competition like a country fair. It is what it is - a Perya."
Got that? They had less than 18 hours with the dang thing and were able to shoot this. These @#$%ers make me sick...with envy...BTW: Street price (body only) $1699.00 (which makes me even sicker).
The 7D also does real video frame rates - 24P, 29.97, etc, which makes it easy to incorporate into the production pipeline. (We don't need the PAL rates, but those are available too). It's cheap, and with someone that knows how to use it, it is absolutely beautiful. If we figure out a proper workflow for tapeless media, this in some ways looks better than what we're currently using.
