This man could have given you false info or he could have misunderstood something.

2 weeks to go now. Lets hope the reality lives up to the hype.

I've checked video specs of 5D Mk II and D90.
D90 is very weak...5D Mk II has 1080P, but weak too.

5D Mk II has only 2 sizes

• 1920 x 1080 (1080P)
• 640 x 480 (VGA)
• 30 fps

Running time ONLY 12 min for 1080P, 24 min for VGA

K-7 is very strong in video modes.

I wonder if that is because Canon does not want to undercut their existing video camera product line?

As I understand, the max file size for the 5DII is 4GB or 12 minutes in 1080p.

Could we see an unlimited size limit for the K-7? Yeeesh...have fun processing that :ugh:

I'd say, maximum file size for the K7 is also 4GB. It's a file system (FAT32) limit, btw.

Time for an better file system then that very old and unsafe FAT32. EXT4 is much better.

Let's format in NTFS then. TThethered shooting with a laptop in the bag should be pretty interesting too

Yuck. Rather ext4, as the author you comment on suggested! Or actually, I'd prefer ext3 - should be enough for a few years to come

thibs · 05-08-2009, 12:53 AM

Or SDXC which means exFAT format.

No file of mine will I ever place on NTFS. FAT32 is already doubtable..

And ofcourse next to EXT4 there are also other filesystems that will be much better and safer then FAT32.

But, Pentax will go following the standards of SD(HC)...

How about ZFS (from OpenSolaris)? SDZC any one? Just kidding, of course
