When trying to match 35mm film with foreground images with DSLR back plates while working with a green screen, the 7D is the best option to use. That’s because the image sensor size used for video on the camera is about the same size as a 35mm motion picture film frame.  So if you put a 50mm lens on a 35mm film camera, it should have the same approximate frame as a Canon 7D with a 50mm lens.  Pretty cool huh?  Got the answer straight from Canon engineers.
