That was neat and a little different! So you can manually set your focus while shooting video? Is this a DSLR with video ability?

Yup it was shot with a 5d mark ii.

Was trying out my new 85mm lens at f1.2

Were you actually focusing or was it simply the fish swimming in a limited depth of field?

Looks pretty good. Nice camera. Maybe one day I'll graduate from the 40D. Maybe.

some of the shots i was trying to follow the fish as it swam closer and farther.... it was extremely difficult at f1.2.... and some of the shots i just focused in the middle and let them swim in and out of focus.

you totally should, once you go full frame you never go back. i had a 50D as a second camera and after a few months i bought another 5D to use as a second/backup.

the difference in high ISO performance is worth it alone

I think you have a nack for making tank vids! You should make a full length one with that soundtrack using the same shot concept. It would make a pretty relaxing vid.
