Canon DSLR Output Signals

Don't get me wrong, I like shooting with the 5D.  I certainly like the weight of the camera, much lighter than toting around my F900!  And the 5D makes some nice images.  It's a great "Grab some b-roll shots" camera.

But the 5D can be a pain in the butt with it's audio issues, no way to judge exposure, non-tilting viewfinder, monitoring issues, etc.

Speaking of monitoring, the HDMI outputs a higher quality signal that the mpg4 recorded to the internal cards.

Some people are talking about trying to take the 5D to the next level using a KiPro to go straight to Pro Res.  I'm not so sure that works...
