However, it is possible to do what you are talking about with Slideshow Pro. You can do a video clip of each room or whatever and then SSPRO will display each clip separately and you can select which clip to display with thumbnails.

So, we introduced all these new tripod dollies and glides and portable cranes and skateboards etc and now, no Propvid can be shot without a moving frame, something moving in it, and ideally, something moving through it. We have been working this new format for the last three months, but nothing has been posted to Vimeo yet. :-) Re: the speed. We are upgrading all our back-end applications with a launch scheduled for about four to six weeks and gearing up to expand the business by bringing on 10 or 15 new Contractors in Queensland. At Propvid, we feel this is the right time, right place.

I will be amazed if all new models below the 5D that come out in the future don't have HD video.

Do you know if this is true? If so, I wonder what the quality will be without the full frame sensor. I’ve heard the upcoming replacement for the Canon 50D will have HD video capability.

Yea, if it wasn't for your video that you post on Vimeo we couldn't see all your great work... there is something between here and Oz that slows down transfer from you site so the video doesn't work. Maybe it's your server. I never though of the fact that you can now shoot video without tripods and huge cameras etc... so you are under the "radar". @Carlos- Yes, I agree for showing wide interior shots and some wide exterior shots I'd rather look at a pan-over of a shot with corrected verticals. But the life style shots with helicopters, speed boats, time lapses and personal agent shots, video has far more impact. Video isn't for everything and you can't use just video but for some aspects of marketing it can't be beat! Your customers will ask for it and some are already demanding it. Brisbane is on the leading edge... it's spreading. @Brett- Thanks for all the details.

Lets face it the goal posts are changing daily and having video in the kit will definitely pay off long term. Globally I think video has arrived and we need to embrace the medium and add it to our arsenal of RE marketing services right now, the one stop approach is what the market is now demanding in our part of the world.
