Tag: 5d mark II

We just finished another product launch video for Spot. They’ve just come out with an amazing new SPOT device that provides all the cool features of the original SPOT device plus you can send a custom text when off the grid.

Want to get decent looking video with your DSLR? Take a look at the new shoulder mount rig that we put together here at Mauromedia. Just recently we purchased several items to make a quality shoulder mount rig for our Canon 5D Mark II’s and the new Canon 1D Mark IV’s.

Mature bull elk photographed in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado.  Canon 5D Mark II – Canon 500mm F4 IS lens – Gitzo Tripod and Sachtler video head.  No the lens wasn’t dirty…it’s actually a light snow falling on this late September day.

I’ve been playing with the 5D mark II for several months now and I continue to be impressed with the video quality. This footage was shot in about a 3 hour time span using a canon 500mm f4 lens and sachtler video head and gitzo tripod. I edited the footage in the field on a Mac Book Pro using Final Cut Pro.

  Just got the Canon 5D Mark II and plan on shooting quite a bit of video for various projects…but first we need to set up the proper tripod. I show you how I modified a video fluid head to work with the Canon 5D Mark II and various lenses.
