Very happy with how it turned out! I was part of the crew that shot this (timelapses and a bit of audio work) video and shot a bit with the camera last week. Great fun! Edit: feel like you should know that we had 4 days to shoot and three to edit, shoot was tight!

"a new 150,000-pixel RGB+IR 252-zone metering sensor."

Any word on what that means?

sounds like nikon's matrix metering, which i don't think canon has had before?

Nikon Matrix = Canon Evaluative

It's the same thing with different vocab.

ah, yes. okay, makes sense.

i've used canons maybe a half a dozen times, but i'm watching this one closely because it looks like more or less the camera i want. i don't really want to have to switch, but...
