All good points.
It just feels like all this video stuff…I don’t know, since the 5DmkII came out, I can’t figure out the marketing strategy. You’ve got big-sensor beautiful video, and then a whole bunch of weird limitations that make them a pain in the ass to use. (Going back to that camera: the literally exactly 30-frames-per-second frame rate.)
Video feels like a thing they put in there because it sounds good to influencers, but then it’s all half-baked and everybody ends up getting proper video cameras.
- ghaff 6y agoMy impression, which could be wrong, is that the strong videographer uptake caught Canon somewhat by surprise. After that, depending upon your level of cynicism, they either decided to remain focused on still photographers and everyone else was incidental. Or they decided to deliberately nudge serious film people to their videocams. The EU tariff situation further complicated matters.
- perardi 6y agoThat’s about what I hear. The video on the 5DmkII was apparently something they popped in without much thinking. Like, just capture the Live View video and dump it to the card.
