  Hi guys, I like the look of this music video and was wondering if anyone has insights into what equipment was used to shoot it? It’s got a nice old school feel to it.

  Well it’s at 720p and the audio was captured using the on camera mic. Also the camera support is not very stable, so I would say it was probably shot on a consumer camcorder which either had the setting to shoot black and white, or that was done in edit software.

  Thank you Charles! It’s cool to hear that apparently nothing too fancy was used.
  
  Do you think I could achieve something similar with my Canon 5D Mark II, using a 50mm 1.4 lens?

  You could defiantly do this with a 5D using a 50mm 1.4 lens. In post as mentioned make it black and white. It also looks like they softened the overall image just a little as well.

  Thank you, it’s amazing that’s all there is to it. Black & White, softened a bit. Will give it a whirl on my 5D Mark II with my 50mm 1.4 lens. Cheers!
