Anyone ever shoot a film on this camera? It's 1080P, and I heard its very versatile for a photography camera. Just wondering because I am thinking about shooting my upcoming film on one. The quality looks gorgeous, and the fact that it fits any EF lens is amazing.

A sample video is found here.

I agree. The footage I've seen is fantastic! The low light capability is a huge benefit, too. I've heard some people mention "skew", but that is the nature of rolling shutter cameras, which seems more prevalent on the Nikon D90. I would use the Canon in a heartbeat. If I didn't already have an HD camera, this would be my next purchase.

I shoot with the camera and its epic. So damn high quality have fun trying to play it in raw without converting it :( haha. But yes epic camera for the price.

There are films also out there that are 10 times better looking than that. Just look up Vimeos canon 5d mk II group and you will know what im talking about.

I'm going to get one Sunday. I've been talking back and forth with a direct who just shot a feature with it. He loves it and the footage looks great. They used it for part of the new Harry Potter movie and the upcoming Iron Man. Hollywood is grabbing onto it.

All I see is a very sharp video-looking highly color corrected (lots of oranges, blues) clip.

Sorry, not impressed (for filmmaking).

:)

oh if you only knew my friend haha.

check out 5d MK ii "vimeo group". Just a laundry list of EPIC videos.

It's also only about $3000 with a lens, and works with 35mm lenses without an adapter, I believe.

Thanks for the link. Seems like extreme shallow depth of field is in vogue these days (with those convinced it makes it look like film). I actually found that annoying while watching that.

Well its over used in these because they're showing off the camera.
