450D XSI Video sample...

Is that possible? http://www.vimeo.com/1​989890
This guy turned his 450D into a video capture, just like the d90 and 5dm2. How ca he do that?

Capture by his computer via Live view?

Says he has a post coming with the "How To"...

Live view with video capture to computer. Don't see these things happening outdoors.

says its a software hack

hes probably either 1) using live view synced to his computer or 2) running chdk

Look at the link that was in the comments:

yeah they talked about 40D but no 450D...

Yeah, there was a guy with a 40D that did this but he showed the 40D being able to do it. really cool and it was a hack like Canon wanted to, were going to, but just decided to hold up on the video-in-camera release.

"Canon wanted to, were going to, but just decided to "

definitely not what canon wanted to do. canon wants to keep it as simple as possible, otherwise why upgrade when you have a camera that can be pushed to the limits? A point and shoot that can take 1/100,000 to 64 second shots is pretty impressive. but still doesn't deliver the IQ of a dslr. so for now, canon is still good.

^Huh?

You can't quote someone and cut it off in the middle of a sentence.
