What is your shutter set at? Sounds like your shutter is too high. Shoot at either 1/50 or 1/60th.

Hi Philip. Thanks for the very useful review. I’m guessing that after the 5D firmware updates it is now the clear winner…

hi philip,
i am joydeep from india. ihave been a director for the past ten years and recently i bought a 7d. i was shooting with a 10-22 lens at a beach for a test shoot and i noticed that when i panned my camera there were terrible jitters on the palm leaves.
I do not know if this is because of the rolling shutter or what. Could you please tell me how to avoid these jitters on tree leaves.
Regards,

Joydeep.

I think than the 5d its really superior, cause full frame is full frame and if you update the firmware you can reach 24 p and 30 p, and the new features of controlling audio levels really rules… only needs 60p for been perfect.
THANKS

What about the Sony VG10E? slightly larger sensor than the 7D, video camera ergonomics and, most importantly, uncompressed clean HDMI output. Canon, Nikon, Sony Alpha and PL lens mounts. Hook one of these up to a Nanoflash and that has to be something worth considering…
