Photoethonography blog – great resource for choosing an HD-SLR

Photoethnography by Karen Nakamura

I just talked to Lens and Shutter in Vancouver, and they said that the Panasonic GH2 can run for 30 minutes in full HD video mode without overheating, while the Canon Rebel T3i only lasts for 9 minutes – so that has helped me narrow down my choices.  The sales guy mentioned that the camera would automatically shut down after 29 min, 59 seconds because of Japanese laws that distinguish between cameras and video recorders.  I haven’t heard talk of that in the reviews.  Anyone know more?
