I'm not a Canon DSLR user (and I'm not sure if this has been highlighted here since the search has been switched off), but I thought that Canon lovers might want to know this.

Erm, I'm a House fan too. The current season finale hasn't even aired in the US, so I'm not sure how you managed to watch it. :think:

How did they shoot it? The director mentioned 24p, so I'm assuming that they shot using the 5D Mk II's video mode. (As I said, I'm not a Canon DSLR user, so I don't know what features are on specific models.)

Incidentally, the Canon 1D (I forgot Mk what), was used to shoot certain short scenes in Slumdog Millionaire. One such scene is Lathika looking up at the Malik at the train station. Danny Boyle mentioned it in the Blu-ray extras. But in this case, he shot stills with the high frame rate, not video.

Of course, no 1D has video capability yet when Slumdog Millionaire was released. Thanks for the link, even though you're not a Canon user. :thumbsup:

Music video shot entirely with a 1D Mark III at 10fps with professional strobes (for some scenes).
