I have finally assembled the components required to make better use of the Canon EOS 5D Mk11 HD video capture.

A talented man with a warped mind..bring it on JL ! [...]

Christmas is for kids….

We uploaded some new video to the video folio page. Along with some HD embedded there is an old video I had forgotten about.
