PF Bentley has written an article on using HDSLR, the Canon 7D in this case, for photojournalism.
He mentions three accessories as indispensable:
- a viewfinder like the Zacuto Z-Finder
- enhanced audio through Beachtek (internal recording) or Zoom (external recording)
- a variable neutral density filter (e.g. Singh-Ray) which allows you to film in broad daylight with wide aperture, which gives esthetic depth-of-field effects.
His conclusion:
In the end, the Canon 5D and 7D are incredible cameras and I doubt if I could ever use a smaller sensor video-type camera again, but I’d love to have a body that uses the 5D full-frame chip with built-in XLR connections, audio meters and a viewfinder that accepts SLR lenses and attaches a LANC cable to it. Whoever puts the 5D-type chip into that body will definitely corner the market for years to come.

Vincent Laforet says “NAB 2010 kicks off tomorrow – and you should expect some pretty fantastic announcements from a wide variety of companies. I know of quite a few – but am sworn to secrecy for at least another 12 hours or so.”
Philip Bloom is presenting at NAB 2010: “Shooting with the Canon EOS HDSLR Camera” as we speak.
Also from abelcine:
- Marshall will be releasing a new 5″ HDMI monitor, which is exciting news for all your HDSLR shooters.
- Switronix Announces the new Powerbase 70 for Canon 7D and 5D Mark II
Zacuto is running a 3 episode series on HDSLR cameras: the Canon 5D, 7D, 1D, the Nikon D3s, Panasonic GH1. The last episode checks out low light / high ISO scenes. They even test Hyper-ISO in the “BIC lighter scene”: 640, 1250, 2500, 5000, 10000, 25650, 51200 and 102.000 ISO!!
It is clear that low light (under 1 foot-candle) conditions is where HDSLR cameras shine. They certainly say a lot of positive things about the Nikon D3s, that can film at the unreal 102.000 ISO.
