Canon’s 1080p-capable 5D MarkII DSLR has been getting a lot of press lately, and for good reason. It creates surprisingly good video in a still camera form factor. Nikon’s D90 was the first DSLR to offer HD video, but it’s 720p mode with all-too-prevalent CMOS skew and jello issues make it sort of the red-headed-stepchild of the two. However, that’s not to say you can’t make good video with the camera. In fact, I’ve got an article in an upcoming DV Magazine issue that speaks directly to the topic of best practices with the D90. As an example of what you can create with the D90, I recommend you watch the following music video and accompanying behind-the-scenes video. It’s well worth it.
