Re: OT: End of Prosumer Camcorders???

[Mitch Ives] "I guess I'll have to ask why you feel this way? "

I've since been informed -- several times, I might add -- that the 7D solves the frame rate problems of the 5D. But there are still things about the camera that make it less than ideal for video production.

Here's a short list: lack of good-quality audio inputs (eg. balanced, and at least two), no audio monitoring, no video outs, cumbersome control placement, lack of a servo zoom lens. There are other things, but that's good for starters.

The irony is that Canon knows how to make TV cameras, but they seem to have totally missed the boat with this thing.
