Tonight marks a big night in HDDSLR and Canon 5D MKII history.  The Fox Networks “House” series is one of the most successful on TV today - and they are airing their SEASON FINALE tonight - shot exclusively with the Canon 5D MKII!

I think this is perhaps one of the most important moments in the HDDSLR’s history to date - because it is in effect becoming a bonafide tool used in prime time television - for a major series.

DP Gale Tatersall and director Greg Yaitanes are in effect giving this camera a huge nod or approval.   While many of us have been well aware of the Canon 5D MKII for close to 2 years now - understand that this is going to make a pretty big impact on a lot of people in Hollywood/film/television - who still have yet to “really” hear about this camera or still doubt that it is ready for major productions.

Yes - many of the DPs, Director and many producers out there have of course heard of this camera… but now you should expect a lot of Executive Producers, studios, actors and others to pay attention - when they realize it was used for a season finale on FOX.
