I dont know if this has been answered. But im goign to be buying a mk2 soon and was wondering about the video. Ive heard that you can only take a 15 min clip and then have to wait for he to cool down. Is this true?

Magnus3D Goldmember ![]() More info | Jun 26, 2011 17:29 | #2 That is true for the 5D2 and also the 7D and any other Canon DSLR that shoots video. It's a well known limitation in the filesystem used on the memorycards which limits the maximum filesize to 4GB. Normally this is never a problem because a approx 15 minute unedited long filmed sequence of some subject will be pretty boring to watch. | Lots of cheap camera gear |

Our company uses 3 of them all the time for video, say what you want but I love the quality and the ability to use all my lenses. I use a {3+2}D Mark [10-8] and a (23-16)D and a Nikon D(75+75)x2s and a Nikon D(38+2)x

I would recommend getting a stabilizer - depending on your budget you can build one from a tripod. I use a {3+2}D Mark [10-8] and a (23-16)D and a Nikon D(75+75)x2s and a Nikon D(38+2)x

Jun 26, 2011 19:52 | #7 im hoping its good. Its for my cousins friend and they know i havent even used the mk2 yet. But im hoping to have a couple days practicing. They pretty much just want the camera on a tripod and hit record. I can do that but really dont. Id rather get clips of there vows from each perspective etc. but will see how it goes.

Thats a good video, nice job. Thats the stuff i want to do and love. The couple really just wants me to put the camera on a tripod and hit record thats it. So ill try my own things and iff they dont work its no biggie then since they just want the basic stuff.
