Hi all,

I'm a full-time video producer from Melbourne and while I've been shooting video with a 7D since they were first released, I'm heading into new territory. I've sold my last traditional video camera and I'm hoping I can replace it with a 550d running ML, and an Atomos Ninja.

It will be an interesting experiment...

Cheers

My #1 tip would be that Peaking is your friend.  That, and lots of practice.  And give yourself enough depth of field to keep everything in focus even if you don't get it exactly right.

Others may have some better tips but those three have gotten me through ten years of manually focussing lenses on many cameras.
