Ok, the camera is good... extremely good, and cheap... but I would not have expected it to be used in the following way... maybe next generation of it... or in 2 generations... but it is seemingly better than I dared imagine. Must make many on this list happy to know they have this good a camera!

A Canon 5D Mark II has become the first video-capable DSLR to film a whole episode of a US primetime series. Greg Yaitanes, director of FOX broadcasting company's medical drama series 'House', used the camera , a selection of of Canon's prime lenses, the 24-70mm and 70-200mm lenses to shoot the season finale. Speaking via Twitter, he said that this was to achieve a shallow depth of field and a 'richer look'. He also said he 'feels it?s the future'.
