Stunning High Definition video shot on a pre-production Canon EOS 7d. This is primarily an SLR still camera but it will shoot video in low light and at a film-standard 24 frames per second. At US$1699 the camera is not cheap. But the results are jaw-dropping and comparable to rigs costing Hollywood money.
The video is by film maker Philip Bloom and he explains all the smokers by saying that because of the smoking ban they were the only people outdoors. You can almost smell the smoke.
Be sure to watch this video full screen and look for the subtle details only HD can reproduce. For example, look for the lifelike eyeglasses at 42 seconds, the fantastic dynamic range in the shot at 1:19 and the sheen on the man's forehead at 1:29. Remember this is from a camera that primarily takes stills.
