Short comparison video I shot between the Canon 550D's H.264 and the 50D's raw for those who are considering to make the switch

Yeah you can compile them using Quicktime 7 Pro.. it compiles them as ProRes 422 and it's pretty quick also.  Yeah ACR is kind of slow processing, but I'm gonna try to see if I'm getting the same thing.  By way what version of ACR are you using?

The one that comes with Photoshop CS6.

Great job Igouroum Wow!!! that video is awesome it really shows the potiential of the 50D.  Keep shooting and posting new video, by the way what was your workflow?

Thanks! My workflow was very inefficient for this particular edit. ACR -> TIFF -> Final Cut X. Looking for a program to compile those TIFFs into a 422 video.. Any suggestions?
Also, I noticed ACR isn't very multicore optimised.. I'm rocking an 8-core 2006 Mac Pro, and it only seemed to use bout 50% of each core for the export even while reading and writing to an SSD, so yeah.. Kind of frustrating

nice.

you are not afraid to damage the sensor with direct sunlight?

Not the slightest no I just make sure the sensor doesn't get flooded for extended periods of time, and that's about it

Here's a clip I shot yesterday afternoon. Shot with a Tamron 17-55 and the Latest (or one of the latest) Tragic Builds.
If only we weren't limited to 892p in full-sensor mode

Cheers!   

Being in Paris for a few days, I decided to shoot some test videos, mostly at night.
Didn't have any tripod / Slider, etc on me as I didn't have much room to spare, but decided to shoot
something regardless at about 1am.
So yeah.. check it out and tell me what you think! Feel free to ask any questions, I'll answer within a couple of hours.
Also, read the description!
