CameraMania!The Real Scoop on What the RED ONE and Canon 5D Are Really Good For
Banking, real estate and the stock market: all three are prone to “irrational exuberance.” As it turns out, the production community is not immune either, witnessed by the hordes rushing to buy (or wishing they already owned) a RED camera or a Canon 5D mkII. Mind you, both are excellent tools - but neither is a cure for everything. more »

RED Build 20 Torture TestsExposure latitude tests reveal perhaps too much about the RED ONE
I’ve learned more about how cameras work by learning what the RED doesn’t do. But, with every software build, it does more. Build 20 looks to be the best yet… but it’s not perfect. more »

Abel Cine offers New Mattebox System for Canon 5D Mark IINot just for cops anymore, custom donuts are mandatory for the Canon 5D
On a recent shoot with the Canon 5D Mark II I lamented the lack of properly-sized donuts. Now, thanks to Abel Cine, I lament no more. more »Advertisement My First Shoot with the Canon 5DFor a still camera it shoots pretty nice HD
The Canon 5D is a cinematic nightmare. In movie mode it’s hard to see focus, difficult to set exposure, and it doesn’t show you exactly what you’re getting. It records to heavily compressed 8-bit H.264, and the only frame rate available is 30fps. Not 29.97—exactly 30p. It’s a complete pain to use. And I love it. more »
