As the Hollywood community continues to embrace the razor-sharp HD video capabilities of the newest generation of Digital SLRs, many pros and weekend warriors are seeing the benefits of shooting videos with them as well.
Shooting HD video with your DSLR, however, is not as seamless as it looks. It is a much different animal than shooting stills, and there are a number of technical issues to consider before moving into this new medium.
If you are going to shoot like a pro cinematographer, you will need to think like one, so learning to ride manual focus on your DLSR will be the key ingredient to a well-produced video.
