I really like your work, Mike. I especially like your use of the fluid tripod head repeatedly in many of your shots. your composition is impeccable. It would be fun to go shooting with you sometime.

thanks Joe. I have not noticed it much yet, but when it is too bad I just drop the clip. I had it mostly in fashion photographs shot with the original 5D. the mk2 seems to have a stronger anti aliasing filter.

Not really necessary to mention that your work is very professional. Respect and thank you for the inspiration! I became kind of an aliasing hunter concerning the 5D and I saw remarkably few of it in this footage though the Brooklyn bridge certainly is not the easiest location to avoid it. (And I remember now how shaky it is, though it is many years ago that I crossed it ;))

Do you have any special trick to avoid aliasing? Keeping objects slightly out of focus? Or a favourit filter? Thanks a lot in advance for your input!

Thanks Alex and Christina. Alex, not sure, usually vimeo plays hd much better then youtube. no plugin required.

Mike – there is some quality in your work that I just can’t quite pin down – for now I will just call it sensitivity – After seeing what you’ve done with this camera, I am looking at shooting video in a whole new way – and I really appreciate that you share the tech aspects of each peice- very generous of you.

HI, Nice video. I get jerky video playing off my pc. Not sure why. Is there a video plugin I need to download to play video on Vimeo properly. The same computer plays Youtube HD movie ok. Thanks.
