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:
- 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
