“Fool Circle” was shot primarily on the 5D… but I shot 2 scenes with the 7D (when the 5D was wiggin out).

I apologize for the image quality of some of the shots, I think my 5D (which was purchased when it first came out) is ready to retire… or maybe im doing something wrong lol.

Lenses I used (all Canon): 50mm f1.2, 70-200mm IS f2.8, 16-35mm f2.8 & 24mm f1.4.

Edited using Premiere CS4, Cineform Prospect HD and Cineform Firstlight (4 color correction).

Other stuff I used: Glidetrack, Zacuto quick draw, Tascam dr-100, Rode NTG-3, couple of Litepanels, and a cheap Azden mic to mount on the 5D (oh yah, and a leatherman,.. watching macgyver as a kid paid off lol)(yes i know he used a swiss army knife).

Thank you to everyone involved for your time, talents, effort and patience, I really really appreciate it…

Really.

Whether this things goes anywhere or not, the journey getting to this point of upload, was pretty crazy and well “worth it”.. thank God for coffee.. and vodka.. jk lol.

…finally, thank you to the pioneers of 5D film making.
