Sony’s “Small Cinema Prototype”

|JONNYHEE| — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 00:21:36 +0000

OK. Now we’re talkin’. Sony has released a twitpic of thier new “small prototype cinema camera”. Here’s the link: http://twitpic.com/1eycf3

It seems to be a part of the first step that manufacturers are taking to go beyond the “trying-to-shoot-video-with-clunky-stills-cameras-cause-the-chip-is-bigger” age. The idea of a small camera, like this one, having a nice sized chip and mounts for cinema lenses, or even SLR primes is very attractive. I have wondered why they couldn’t just take the guts out of a 5D MKII and put it in a case with audio controls and video knobs. This would make a lot of sense for indie filmmakers, production houses, commercial photographers, and digital media guys.

There is not any info on name, specs or pricing yet. It is scheduled to be release at the beginning of next year.

T2i vs 7D?

|JONNYHEE| — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 21:35:57 +0000

Any suggestions here? The “specs” are really similar in numbers, but does that really translate to performance? Both cameras have a 1.6x crop factor (no cropping with the 5D MKII) and both shoot the same formats of video (the 5D now with the firmware update). Though, something about the video quality just doesn’t add up. If you list almost exact specs for two different models, but the cost of one is nearly half the other: What corners were cut in the manufacturing process to make this possible?

Canon seems to really hang it’s marketing hat onto specs with the T2i. They obviously set out to make a camera that could match up in a side-by-side-specification-comparisonwith the 7D and be somewhat comparible to the 5d MKII. Is it a just a marketing scheme? I have seen the video comparisons on vimeo and I am impressed with the quality of work my colleague Kevin is producing with his T2i.

This point of this post is to start this discussion:

I know it’s less expensive, but is it worth paying more for the 7D or for that matter the 5D MKII?
Is the superior low-light performance of the 7D warrant paying +$800 over the T2i?
Does the supperior low-light performance of the 5D MKII plus the larger chip warrant the +$800 over the 7D?
If you are considering the 5D MKII, should the 7D or T2i even be in the discussion?
