Canon5Dtips Photography is more than words.

Now that 2009 is over, I would like to know what you, the visitors, would like to see more of next year. More gear reviews? Talk about software? More news? Filming techniques? Should I talk more about photography? Tell me how I can help you! I already have a few interesting things lined up but I am always open to ...

Welcome to 2010. The question you should ask yourself now is: what can I do in 2010 that will make me a better videographer than I was in 2009? The answer is probably not a new piece of gear but a behavioral change. I spoke about this to a few videographers and their suggestions were: spend more time working on ...

Now that 2009 is almost over, it is a good time to look back at all the products we have tried during the year and see which one stood above the rest.

In case you are in needs of more memory card (who is not!), Amazon is selling some fast & big CF cards today in their ‘End of Year deal’ section. The best deals are with the Lexar Pro UDMA 16 GB 300x CF card or the Sandisk 8GB Extreme CF UDMA. Just a quick reminder: HDSLR dont need super fast ...

I hope you can all spend this day with the people you love and care about.

Vincent Laforet updated his blog with some interesting content last night. First, he republished the Nocturne film on various video hosting platform and  added a behind the scene video (available only on his site). Wish it was longer.

UPDATE: SOLD! While I love this lens, I dont use it enough to justify its presence in my lens box.

I have been playing with Animoto for over a week and think it is something you guys might be interested in. What is it? Animoto used to be a slide show creation web application but it has recently added video capabilities. So you can now mix stills, video and music to create a very pro looking video. Think of it ...

Unless you have a WFT-E4 or are into long repetitive bulb exposures, this update does not change anything for you. It would have been a nice present from Canon to give us the 24p before the holidays, but I guess they are really going to stick to their schedule of 2010 (probably after the 1DMrkIV is out too). You can ...

Last weekend, I had to opportunity to participate in the production of a small movie entirely shot with a 5D. We had a lot of gear to play around, including a SmallHD DP1 field monitor. It was my first time shooting with an external monitor and it quickly became a key item on the set. As you can see in ...

As promised, here is the review of the 5D training DVD from F-Stop Academy. A lot of people are interested in getting HDSLR training DVD for Christmas but dont know which one to get. By the end of this review, you should have a better idea of which one is better for your needs. While this video is targeted at ...
