We seriously need to open up an Austrian branch of Engadget. After treating us to a titanium iPhone (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/24/the-titanium-iphone-is-real-really-real-video/?s=t5), the Governator's homeland is now playing host to the first professionally shot 1080p video with the new T2i / 550D (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/canons-new-rebel-t2i-shoots-18-megapixel-still-ups-the-video-o/) from Canon. Nino Leitner has shot a moody short film with a pre-production unit and his conclusion has been that the video you can obtain from the latest prosumer shooter is indistinguishable from the output (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/02/new-snl-title-sequence-and-segments-shot-using-canon-eos-7d-5d/) of the mighty Canon 7D (http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/canon-eos-7d-gets-high-marks-all-around/). High praise indeed, but not altogether unexpected considering the T2i sports an all-new 18 megapixel sensor (that is "very similar" to the 7D's) and has had its 1080p recording upgraded to the requisite 30fps to make it a viable shooting mode. Skip past the break to have a look at his results or visit the source for Nino's in-depth preview. Nikon, you've been put on notice.Continue reading Canon Rebel T2i / 550D demonstrates 1080p video mode, collects glowing early preview (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/canon-rebel-t2i-550d-demonstrates-1080p-video-mode-collects/)
