[QUOTE="pforsell, post: 28953, member: 7240"] Video cameras don't offer the ability to mount a 50 mm f/1.2 lens to it and enjoy shallow DOF. Or a fisheye. Or a 500 mm tele. Nor do they offer ISO 25,600 and higher. The best video-capable DSLRs approach Hollywood quality. One episode of the TV show "House" was filmed entirely with a Canon 5D Mk II. Someone also did one feature film, but the title escapes me. I have never even tried the video mode in my D3s, not interested, but the video-DSLR output quality seems to be from a different planet when compared to a typical video camera. So, if someone is serious about shooting video, I can understand the desire to upgrade to a DSLR. [/QUOTE]
