Sample Footage

[abeas]

Just some sample footage I shot this morning. 1080p24, Spark scene file. Exported from FCP as h.264 at 5MB. Not sure why there is so much shake in some of the shots. Maybe the auto-focs/iris on the zooms and focus caused it.
This is really a nice camera. No color correction at all.

Outstanding work Oleg! All three of your sample AC160 videos are excellent!

Here are links to the other two videos by Oleg, for anyone that has not yet seen them. Most impressive indeed!

H (http://vimeo.com/31384302)ow did you capture the audio for your video? The results sounded very good!


If this is the sort of indoor performance that the camcorder can produce, it is clearly a good reason for buying it. And the image quality itself is so lovely. One person even commented that he thought that the footage came from a Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

Here is some more footage from me. These were shot on Auto, as I was still evaluating how well the camcorder's auto functions work.

I will continue to use Autofocus and Auto White Balance, as these have both been working very well for me. However, Auto Iris simply jumps around too much. But I have decided from now on to set shutter, iris, and gain manually. I have a small Canon that I will continue to use for true "run and gun" type shooting. So my AC130 is mainly going to be used on a tripod.

I bought this camcorder to get something that has full manual controls on it. So it would be sort of silly to use it in Auto mode anyway.

Default Spark Scene was selected for both. DRS was off. First one shot at 24p with shutter 1/24 and no ND. Second, earlier video was recorded at 30p, with shutter 1/60th and 1/16th ND. ( I think that I made a mistake in using 1/16 ND, and should have probably used 1/4th instead )

That is very lovely video. He said in his comments that he is planning to post a full review of the AC160 soon.
