One of the problems that some people are having with shooting HD with the Canon 5dmII is that the Canon lenses have no direct aperture control on the lens - so we are seeing Zeiss and Nikon lenses being used with adapters! Here's some footage: <http://www.vimeo.com/4557873> The problem with HD video on DSLRs is audio control and bitrate.
