Hey guys, Marcus here.
I just recently picked up my T2i/550d, and I'm loving it already. As soon as I got it I immediately jumped into full manual, and I must admit, it's pretty impressive what you can do with this camera.
Oddly enough, I bought this camera for the video quality (as I am a cinematographer), not for the stills. The camera has (nearly) the same functions as the big daddy, the 7D. Therefore, I opted for the cheaper route to save some money for lenses, accessories, etc.

I own my own youtube channel that mirrors my username here (xeroedeffects), in which I produce visual effects as well as the occasional 3D animation.

WWII Spitfire VFX (Breakdown)

Anyways, I'm usually fairly active in forums, especially fairly small ones, so you'll see me around quite a bit in the future.
