I seem to remember about 2 months back someone suggest using an old FD or zeiss lens with a conversion adapter as a means to get Av mode in video on the 5dm2.
I'd be really interested in doing this if it works! Has anyone tried it yet?

Some Canon bodies, some zooms, and a cheap prime. A flash, some monolights, and the mess of crap that goes with all of it. Does that clear everything up?

Some Canon bodies, some zooms, and a cheap prime. A flash, some monolights, and the mess of crap that goes with all of it. Does that clear everything up?
