Video Camera Upgrade Complete!

Its been almost a full year of testing, buying new equipment, figuring stuff out, and more testing but we're finally completed with our switchover to HDSLR video! This means that we are now using DSLR photo cameras to film weddings in HD. For those interested in the technical end of things, specifically we have switched to a combination of the Canon 5dmkII's and the Canon 7d cameras, along with a variety of Canon lenses. The quality difference is really amazing, not to mention the creative freedom of being able to change lenses so easily. And I also dig the ability to instantly play back what we have shot - no more tape capture! The integration now between our photo and video teams is almost seamless. I posted a comparison of the quality on our facebook page located here: http://www.facebook.com/platinummix

Anyway, here are the 2 latest recap chapters from the last 2 weddings we've done ->
