It makes life so much simpler. Especially for me...I no longer have to set my video rig down, disconnect myself from the power cord that goes from my belt batter to my onboard ring light and remove my headphones and then pick up a camera rig to take a few shots.
Now I simply stop the action, switch to camera mode. click the shots I need, then switch back to video mode and call for "action".
It's sweet!
And then when I get back to the office...All I have to do is pull the compact flash card, stick it in my reader and move the files to my hard drive. (I could also do it with the camera using USB or bluetooth if I chose to)
Nice and simple with great quality.
And I'm hoping within the next few months to take it up a notch by getting a Cine Lens Prime Lens for this baby:

here's then info I got about focus and DSLR Robbie... the chips can handle focus but the glass can't keep up and what do you really think is gonna happen with a 2K lens anyway, right? so the guys at Brown and Sawyer told me that I could adapt an ENG lens over to the DSLR and then I could auto focus all day and all night... I forgot what it would cost for them to make the adapter, like 10K I think.... and the ENG zoom is about 70K... so I'm missing something here in spending 5K for glass for shooting video... I don't think it will pull auto focus at that price..
