I just picked up my new dream camera the Nikon D90, A DSLR that can also shoot 720p video at 24fps....droooooool. I took this shot the first night I had the camera along with some video. The video is strictly test stuff, raw with no editing, but DAMN!

I've still never been to Griffith, but I am cursed because every time I think of it I remember the Charlie's Angels fight scene there with Demi Moore.
Very nice new toy. Looks like a great camera. Looking forward to more from it.

hehe...It's two different films that I always remember when I'm up there "Rebel Without A Cause" and "The Rocketeer"
It's hard to tell looking at a small vimeo video, but the darks look deep in low light, which is really nice. Did you treat the contrast at all, or is this raw? If it's raw, that's pretty amazing. Have you tried the Casio EX-F1? It's supposed to be a pretty sweet camera that shoots 1200 fps.
raw, no color correction, nuthin'. You should click through to vimeo and look at some of the other examples, pretty fricken sweet.
I had the Samsung equivalent of the Casio for about 12 days before I returned it, not enough manual options.
The night scene looks great but not as great as the official videos showed it, the noise that is showing is that Vimeo compression? Can you see on the original file? That is still very impressive though, a few good area lights and it would be gone. How long can you shoot video for?
I need to do more filming again...
I have one for my Cannon and it's just an awesome glass.
They're kinda spendy though, at about $450.
I don't know what kind of budget you have or if you're even in the market for a good lens, but Sigma makes a GREAT 30mm f/1.4 lens.

I picked up a Nikon equivalent lens today, and did a quick test with the correct settings for low light, lets just say it's the difference of night and day. I'll post the test vid later.
Ummmmm, HELLLLLL NO and OMFG that is cool. I would love your camera as well, I would even wipe it off with handi-wipes once I loved it.
