Canon 5D MarkII HD movies--are these stunning or what?

I'd like to make a nice long list of best HD movies made with the Canon 5D Mark II, as well as the sites that support hosting/embedding HD movies.

Vimeo seems to be the big winner so far.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that vimeo pales in comparison to the real HD offerings at smugmug. 720p, and compression is not overdone at all.

This one is only mid-def. It's better than DVD resolution

More hi def:

$150/year to host on smugmug, but it's worth it, particularly if you want to do HD video. And there's a coupon code for half off.

Oh. Wait. Is this FULL 1080P STREAMING on the web?

Oh yes, yes it is!

Looks like it's upscaled from 720, but still.
