Considering the TV series House centers around an unorthodox doctor, it isn't too surprising that the production crew took an unorthodox approach to filming the Season Six finale.

According to a tweet by director Greg Yaitanes, the production crew shot this year's season finale using the HD video recording feature of a Canon 5D Mark II DSLR still camera.

In replies to fans' questions on Twitter (via PetaPixel), Yaitanes says that the $2500 Cannon camera was perfect for the finale's many "tight" scenes. During filming, the production crew didn't use any stabilization features or tools beyond a small tripod, and used only a couple lenses aside from the standard Canon lenses.

Be sure to catch the season finale when it airs on May 17.

 
It makes more sense to shoot a DSLR on a professional set than it does most run-n-gun applications anyway. The biggest problem with them is the aliasing, so having a professional grip to do the focus is the ideal situation to get rid of it.
 
Did you finally sell you cam and buy a dslr?

And the news is a day old. For that comment, I am going to hunt you down at your track practice next week and shame you in front of the entire team.
