Heheh
I shot a promo spot for Cirque Eloize a week ago, and for one of the shots I had asked the acrobat to jump of the 25 feet high wall with the Canon in his hands.
Both the acrobat and the camera are fine
Another interesting shot is with the camera mounted inside the spinning wheel.
The spot is made with The 5d Mk2 and the Red one.

Nice spot Albert. When it says the lighting was staged for the shoot, do you mean it was a lot brighter than normal to expose for 320ASA? Speed of lenses?

Thanks Eric
It's my poor english thing
I meant, I could do my own lighting along with the stage light designer.
It's rare in the live performance situation (usually I deal with what I have)
Red was exposed for 320 , and canon 600+- (I took all the close ups with it).

Red had superspeeds-S16mm (S16 16mm&25mm lenses) the aperture was set to f2 (3K), and canon Zeiss ZF(mostly 85mm) set to f2.8.

I am really happy with 5D in the low light, really happy.
