I have just starting my videographer journey, and although the 5D is awesome the lack of control is annoying!


My current thinking for quality video is to shoot on a panning head, with off camera microphone.





tips, don't pan quickly, don't zoomed and if you can turn off IS as its the only sound the camera will pick up!


for proof of this i quote my first two efforts on youtube.

there both shoot out doors on fairly bright sunshine.





Hope this helps someone from the disappointment i had with myself.
