Night Flight - Images by Vincent Laforet

Vincent Laforet is the accidental dean of DSLR video. A Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer for the New York Times in what might as well have been a former life. Canon's 5D Mark II set Laforet on a totally different path. His short film "Reverie"was the first ever made with the 5DMkII, heralding a new era of amateur filmmaking. Suddenly, a $2,700 camera—now, a $1,000 camera—could produce stunning, professional-looking video in insane lighting conditions once too challenging for consumer equipment. Vincent became a filmmaker. He's won a Gold Lion at Cannes in the 57th International Advertising Festival. (One of his pet projects at the moment is "Beyond the Still", a user-generated HDSLR film—they're looking for entrants for the final two chapters.)
