I did some searching around and couldn't come up with a thread dedicated to this. I think it would be pretty cool to list out movies that you spot canon gear, and possibly your best attempt at what gear it was. If this already exists, please point me in the right direction, if not I'll start.

Alvin & The Chipmonks - Canon 1D
Catch and Release - Canon 30D?

Don't really think this is quite right, but this was spotted on the set of Transformers:

That would be the near mythical 1200mm f/5.6L ...

Not a movie, but that episode of south park where the paparazzi drive britney spears to shoot herself in the face features more animated 70-200Ls than I can count :lol:.

Certainly one of the best uses for 70-200s that I can think of... :cool:

When they were shooting batman in Hong Kong, I saw batman get out of a taxi. Complete with the suit (seriously). I think the bat mobile was in the shop.

It was probably just a local reporter doing a bit thing. But I just keep telling myself it was the REAL batman!

Wish I had my camera on me at that moment. Would have made an awesome street photo.

The neck strap says EOS. That has to be a Canon.
