    Is anyone really shooting video with the Canon 5D, like for real video?
    How long of a single piece of footage can be shot. Say you were doing a small self-financed short. Would using the Canon be a real workaround to get 1080p footage, or is it silly? My gut tells me it'd be silly and impractical, but the footage samples I'm seeing look really really good.

    • for a hobbyist it is excellent. for a pro, no.robotron3k
    • I have to think with how light it is that it would be diffucult to keep steady and pan smoothly.nosaj
    • I think it is a legit camera for shooting, but extended shots are probably limited, timewise.ifeltdave
    • 5D Mark II is a specialty camera, great for certain stuff, but not your only HD video cameravaxorcist
