M2 Motorway Lorry Fire - YouTube Hits pass 50,000

The video I shot of the car transporter lorry fire back in May 2009 that was the first real test of the Canon 5D mark 2 video capability has now had over 50,000 hits on YouTube.

I used the photos and video today for teaching material at a local school which went down really well and showed the huge advantage of having a camera that can shoot stills and video.

The BBC used the image for their Kent website

and Kentonline also used the video footage - but due to the problems editing the 5DII movie format they videoed the screen of their computer!!
