For example, my conference photography often gets noticed ([eg](http://www.onemanandhisblog.com/archives/2008/12/le%5Fweb%5F08%5Fpodcasting%5Flive.html?ref=onemanandhisblog.com)),  
and I’m normally shooting that on a DSLR on the long end of a telephoto  
zoom, with the ISO pushed as high as it will go. You can’t do *that* on a compact.

For them, the new breed of DSLRs with built-in video recording look  
like great tools, if you’re prepared to put in the time and effort to  
learn them. I had the chance to play with both the 500D, 5D and  
7D, all of which can shoot HD video, and they’re seriously interesting  
pieces of kit. The paradigm of using the video recording is nothing  
like using a traditional camcorder, and challenging to get your head around, but I’m really looking forward to  
experimenting with the 500D’s video capabilities in the near future  
(because, no matter how great my lust for them is, there’s no way I can  
justify spending the moolah on the higher spec models right now). The prospect of tight focus in video, using great Canon glass is really appealing…

The good folks from [CanonCameraBuzz](http://canoncamerabuzz.com/2009/11/23/canon-is-sponsoring-tuttle/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com) said they’ll be sticking the results of our experimentation online at some point, and I’m really looking forwards to seeing how they turn out.
