Which is the best DSLR to shoot HD video with? I like the hacked Panasonic GH2. But what lens do I use on it. I believe it’s X 2 with any lens you put on it. I have great collection of canon lens. I believe the 5D Mark 111 is over priced. I also like the coming Sony A 99. But will I be able to use my Canon lens on it?
I thinking on waiting. I believe the mirror less cameras are the future.
I’m looking at the Black magic camera looking good. Black magic or GH2?
