thank you Neal and Canon! Got a DSLR and it has sat in the box for 2 months while I continued to shoot on my iPhone in the meantime. This tutorial is a great way to jump in and just do it :)

Thanks Neal! A great starting point for me to move from my stills to shooting some video content. I was wanting to capture some short clips to compliment a series of stills - looking forward to more. C

Who else is here is to learn without having a camera

Interesting. At video (for photographers) school, we were taught PAL, 25 FPS (because it's the Australian Broadcasting Standard).

50 FPS for fast-moving stuff such as sports.

You failed to mention that ND filters will be required outdoors.

Thanks for the tutorial! Just a WARNING for anyone that wants to edit in Premiere Pro - Don't change your file settings to .MOV...

Premiere Pro doesn't allow .MOV files and you'll need to convert these.
