I saw this video the other day when I was still trying to take the Pepsi challenge on which new Canon camera to get. This guy cracks me up and I really like his breakdown of each of the canon cameras (5D Mark II vs D7). The 8 FPS (Frames Per Second) and some of the other little perks that are more geared for high speed surf photography really sold me on the 7D.
Canon 5D Mark II vs Canon 7D Field Test Hands-on Review
In this video, we take a look at two Canon DSLRs - the 7D and the 5D Mark II. If you've got either one of the triple digit-D or double digit-D DSLRs from Canon, which of the two makes the ideal body to upgrade to? We take them out to compare some of the best bits of each camera...but the weather takes a turn for the worst. Find out to see if these cameras survive the Hong Kong Typhoons.
A day meant to learn and explore new Canon 7D turned out to be real time picture/video opportunity.
High surf warning was issued today on all Hawaiian islands as 15 foot waves roll in.
Spent my lunch break at Kewalo basin taking pictures and video.
Left camera settings as is and started shooting.
I just picked up a Canon 7D yesterday and now I'm really hooked. I'm so hooked that I started this blog so that I don't start taking over my surf blog http://nobadtides.blogspot.com/. I did a little searching on Youtube and found this awesome video. I'm looking forward to one day shooting a video like this one- check it out:

You can download the song on iTunes in the link below. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/countyourblessings/id416849235?i=416849293 The song from this video is called "Count Your Blessings", it's from a old Christian hymn that Stephen did his own rendition of.

On a technical note: The entire video was shot on a Canon 7D, all in 720P, at 60fps (frames per second). I used a couple different Canon lenses to shoot this, they were... Canon 70-200 F/2.8 Canon 100-400 F/4/5.6 Canon 2X III Extender (this makes the lens when it is at 400mm, become 800 mm's. It does loose some quality, but it's not very noticeable.) The entire video was shot all on the North Shore, at Pipeline, and Waimea for the big waves. To get the "super slow motion", after I filmed at 60fps, I through it into the program "After Effects". I used an effect that comes with the program called "Time Warp". This allowed me to make the 60fps, to 1000fps. The way this works is the computer processes/adds frames in between the frames that are already in existence. It took several days for the computer to process the clips into the super slow motion that appears as well, so it does take a lot out of the computer, as far as processing goes. Another similar program that does something similar to this slow motion effect, is a program called "Twixtor". It's another great program that is very similar, however you have to buy it as a separate plugin, and it is a little expensive, but if you do a lot of slow motion, it's totally worth it :) For BUSINESS ENQUIRERS ONLY, you can contact me at this email. devinsupertramp@gmail.com
