Still images from corporate shoot with Canon 7D

This week, we shot out first of three 60-second  segments for our new client, Embrace Home Loans. We are getting started on the edit this week, but to demonstrate the quality of the Canon 7D camera, I wanted to show some captures from the video we shot.

Here’s a review and article on the Canon 7D for filmmakers entitled “Canon EOS 7D impressions for filmmaker wannabes”.

Canon’s newest HDSLR offering, the EOS 7d, takes the concept and runs with it, in surprising and sometimes frustrating ways.

High Definition comparison clips from HVX-200 and Canon 7D

This week, a friend and I are flying to Wisconsin to shoot some customer interviews for a client.  Over the Christmas holidays, I purchased a new Canon 7D camera.

I really want to shoot this corporate video with the Canon 7D because the visuals are quite amazing.  So, in preparation for the shoot, Allan and I did a side-by-side comparison of the two cameras using an identical lighting setup.  Here’s the HD video on Vimeo:

HVX-200 setup:

  • Scene setting 5:  720p, 24 fps, film gamma
  • Lens sizes were estimated to match 7D’s 50mm and 85mm
  • Recorded audio internally
  • Codec was DVCPro HD

Canon 7D setup:

  • HD 1080p, 24 fps
  • Lenses: Canon 50mm f1.4 and Canon 85mm f1.8
  • Recorded audio on a Tascam DR-100
  • Codec was AVC H.264

Edited in Final Cut Pro:

  • Created ProRes 422 (HQ) sequence
  • Transcoded all Canon 7D footage to ProRes 422 (HQ)
  • No color correction or exposure adjustments
