Came across the video using a preproduction 5DMKII shooting wedding scenes. I don't do weddings but this is really amazing from a DSLR.

The rig he uses for the video capture is interesting, as well.

Nice presentation. I'd like to see the additional time line required to put the video together. Makes it look soooo easy.

Its my understanding from reading the manual that you can take a still shot while the video is running then it just continues after the still is taken. With this in mind you can print as large as 21.1MP shot will allow you.

That's great, but i wonder if you just use video mode... what size the frames are. I'd even be happy with a measly 10MP frame. Imagine never missing that glance or evil smile... just video it.

Kinda cool. Ill keep my dingy d700 for now :)

BTW: If you export a still from the video it will be a 1080P still. 1920x1440

Basically, a 3-4mpix image (if captured via video clip). If you do as Jim mentions, it'll be full 21mpix res.
