Cinematographers tended to love the 5D at first, because it gave a large single sensor at an affordable price. Camera manufacturers took note, and now produce proper video cameras with large single sensors. In fact a slightly smaller sensor is now the accepted standard in film- making and broadcast - the 'Super35' sensor. <http://cvp.com/images/uploaded/sensor_table.gif> I think 5Ds will be used more as a mute camera for mounting on car hoods or in cramped places. Filmmakers will readily choose the Canon C300 or Sony FS7 in either EF or more usually PL mount. Cine primes is still an expanding market depending on budget! -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
