5D MKII RC Heli Aerial Footage
Testing the Canon DSLR with a remote-controlled helicopter
By Matthew Jeppsen | January 19, 2009
Here's some shots from what appear to be the first remote-controlled aircraft test with Canon's hot new HD-equipped Digital SLR camera. The RC helicopter used is surprisingly vibration free, I did not expect that. Video embedded below.

Matt, keep an eye on http://planet5d.com—we’re finding all sorts of 5d samples (and had this one not long after it was released).

the 5DMkII seems to be in a vibration control type harness similar to the ones used for studio microphones. That’s probably why there is scarcely any vibrations.

Great footage! Does anyone know which R/C helicopter was used for this shoot?

Can’t say exactly what copter it is, but one of the reasons it is so smooth is because it is an ELECTRIC copter, not a gas one. Makes an enormous difference.
