I’ve got four kids at home, and the youngest just turned five on January 3. We celebrated my twins birthdays at “Build a Bear” in Chinook Centre, South Calgary and it was a chance to get the hang of some of the new video features of my Canon 7D.
The following edit is by no means a production piece, just a fun hand-held video I wanted to share with friends online. I plan to get alot more video time in before the 2010 wedding season, so look forward to some video highlights of the new engagement sessions to come!
I took a few hours out of the day to visit the new Lethbridge Moxies location, and meetup with some great people connected via the social utility; twitter.
In attendance were many of Lethbridge’s photography community including Hope Litwin, Rod Leland & Cody Belter. I had my new Canon 7D with me and was able to shoot some random footage to get acquainted with the camera in a low light setting for video. Here’s the resulting clip:
As I write this the Canadian dollar is worth 0.786 USD, a steep decline to the “amost parity” we saw in the summer months.
Nikon shooters are being warned by retailers of serious price increases from suppliers in the next week or so to compensate for the rapid drop. Shooters who have been holding back on equipment purchases might be best to grab that gear today (a great pre-Christmas marketing gimmick), or shoot cheaper Canon gear.
