The reason for the increased speed at x675 is for downloading. The quality will be the same with your Extreme Pro just it will download 4 times as slow.

Sandisk extreme or extreme pro? I have 16 gig extreme pro, but i see you use the extreme 60mb/s. Is it just price difference or is there any difference or does it matter? Thanks. Shane,

I borrowed your man-cam idea and built a Frankenrig out of a HotRod hand-held mated with a Zacuto Zwing-away, RR mount and FF. Since I do a lot of shooting in confined spaces, your idea works like a charm. Cheers!

The Panavision mount was something that I designed along with the engineers at Panavision/Hollywood, which does nothing to the camera, you just click that baby on and all the focus marks line up perfectly. The vignetting on the PL mounts: on the 5D the vignette is up to a 40mm. On the PV mount it is up to a 35mm because of the flange depth, which is equal to a 24mm. On the 7D there is not any vignette because of the smaller sensor. You are welcome Tom Camarda, Hi it is so great to hear from you.

Anyway, great blog you have here and I'm just getting on board the DSLR thing. Shot a short last week and am happy with the results. Will be shooting more promo's with it this week! I am curious about the Panavision mount you have. Is this a custom set up? Are there PL to Canon mounts? Any problems with Vignetting? Or issues with hitting the shutter? Thanks for the info!
