This is not the first Aurora Borealis video shot with the Canon ME20F-SH and posted by Aurora Skycam, though I think this one is more impressing.
The ME20F-SH was used, a special full-frame Canon camera that goes up to ISO 4M (yes ISO, 4,000,000). The camera was hand-held during a flight with Norwegian Airlines at 36000 ft and while cruising at 800 km/h. The video was shot at ISO 102.000, 50fps, 1/50 sec. There is some beautiful footage in the video below, and the best thing is: there is more to come soon (according to the makers).
The Canon ME20F-SH is a speciality camera, with a special price: it’s yours for a mere $20,000.

Known Issue
Image flickers when moving an adjustment slider. Note that this only occurs when using certain AMD graphics cards (such as 6450M and 6970M) on Mac OS 10.11 (El Capitan). We are working with our partners to resolve this issue. In the meantime, you can workaround this issue by disabling “Use Graphics Processor” in Lightroom’s preferences.
In a statement issued to Amateur Photographer, Canon says that while there have been no injuries among Canon employees, the recent earthquakes in Japan had an impact on the production chain due to the damages experienced by companies that supply parts. Quoting:
Canon makes clear that it has been forced to halt production of some products owing to the impact of the earthquakes on companies that supply parts, and the effect on infrastructure.
However, the statement emphasises that there have been no serious injuries to Canon employees or their families, and no significant damage to the company’s building or facilities.
Canon adds that the current impact on the company’s business is ‘minimal’, though the future situation is still being assessed.
Canon made a donation of 10 million yen (approx. $92,600) to the Japanese Red Cross Society.
