so i finally got my 7d. Did a little test footage with it and i am extremely happy. the footage blew me away when i was editing. since i did this video i have found how to do smooth slow motion, so i cant wait to start doin some wake films. check it out, what you think!? <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.vimeo.com/9525729" target="_blank">http://www.vimeo.com/9525729</a>

That is bada$$. Can you change the aperture settings while shooting live?

Looks great! I love my 7D but I haven't played with the video at all yet. I think this weekend I will have some fun with it.

How did you rack the focus? Straight off the lens? <BR> <BR>Curious about your settings/shooting mode as well.

Easy Rich, I don't want you putting to many miles on my Camera<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>

Rich, <BR> <BR>not sure if you have seen this <a href="http://vimeo.com/7256322" target="_blank">http://vimeo.com/7256322</a>, great settings for the 7D to increase dynamic range. You can watch the video or just go to the website where you can download the profiles. I haven't had a chance yet to test it out but the test shots in the video look good. I have been using Philip Blooms settings which work really well. It's a flat setting allowing you to do all color correction in post. I hope it helps.

hey guys! thanks for checkin out the footy. that was literally took it out of the box and walked outside with it. i did just use the focus manually on the lens, an 18-200mm IS lens, really happy with it so far, for video and photos. you can change aperature and shutter while shooting, its pretty fun to shoot with, going from a sony vx2000 to the 7d is a big change so im really looking forward to using the cam.
