This training DVD look great but I am thinking of purchasing a Canon 550d…

Would I still get a lot from this training? E.g. are the functions/button/modes of the 7d similar enough for me to understand how to apply the techniques on a 550d?

I think I remember reading that the two cameras are quite similar for video.

Thanks in advance for any help.

no, it’s for the Canon line only. Save your money!

pbloom, would the 7D DVD still be of use to someone shooting with the GH-1?…aside from menu’s and some features being different, is there enough in the dvd that covers shooting good video to make it a worthwhile the expense for a GH-1 owner?
thnx

Hi Philip!

first of all, many thanks for having my film in your film critic (Webisode 7-Khoda animation). My jaw was hanging for few minutes when I saw it…

I got myself a 7D today, and going to order a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L as my first lens (hope you are agree on that).

I’m gonna order a copy of this DVD, once I finish reading the manual.

thanks for the tutorials and the inspirations

I was planning to get the 7D, but just picked up the T2i instead. If I had bought the 7D, I would definitely pick up this DVD. Now that I have the T2i, I’m not sure.

Philip, what are your thoughts on this? Will the DVD still be relevant for video using the T2i.

Thanks

Great DVD! Only one question:

When using your color profile settings, nothing seems to have as crisp of a focus as it used to. Anything I can do in post to revive the crispness?

You used my feedback at the top of my list. This is being publicized on my blog. It’s a plug for a plug about a video!

Hey Philip,

Just wanted to thank you for sharing your video worflows on your blog. Using it helped me create my first 7D wedding music video.

I’ll definitely pick up the DVD when I have some extra cash and recommend it to friends…
