War footage with 5dmk2
This video is hard core, gutt-wrenching, in your face, violent and bloody and disturbing. It’s video made with a Canon 5D Mark II in a steady-cam type rig, complete with a shotgun microphone shot by photographer Danfung Dennis in Afghanistan. It has a cinematic quality, and really shows what stunning quality can come out of that camera:

Thanks for posting this video Robert. I missed it on PBS. Besides great video from a “still camera”, this clip also shows GREAT discipline by a photographer. I think many people who rely on photography to show them what is happening elsewhere, are forgetting the skill of the people who make that possible.
Thanks again.
