The season finale of House is on tonight. Normally, that wouldn't be news for Photography Bay. However, it's a bit different because the entire episode was filmed with the Canon 5D Mark II and Canon EF lenses.
You can catch a preview of the episode here.
I can't say I've ever watched an episode of the show, but I think I'll join in tonight just out of the curiosity factor. The show starts at 8PM ET / PT.
