[SIZE=+0]By human error (mine) I accidently did a complete outdoors shoot with the DVX100's video setting on F4 (30fps) instead of F5 (24fps). After I quit kicking myself in the butt, I decided to try and salvage the shoot and edit the serious video I had first intended. I was surprised and pleased as, even at 30fps video, the DXV100 looks more professional and more film-like than my other camera.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+0]Here is the finished product, a 2:56 long video of the grounds of King Ludwig II's Rocco palace in the southern Bavarian Alps, set to appropriate music.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+0]Outstanding, in my opinion, is the light detail. The reflection of the sun off the water on the feet of the gold fountain cherubs struck me as a very nice effect. Feedback appreciated.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+0]A DivX version can be seen here: http://www.christiangeology.com/video/clasiclinder.html[/SIZE]

Editing Note: The feature was rendered directly into Mpeg2 and then directly converted to DivX.
 
Haven't looked yet. No DivX here at work. But a question: Any problem with filming there?

My wife wants to see Linderhof and Neuschwannstein, so if I can bring the cam I won't feel so bad about driving all the way down there. :)

The only restrictions I know of is filming and/or photography inside of the castles. Too bad, as they are both beautiful inside.
 
Oooo. Pretty. Maybe she'll settle for me green-screening her into that footage so I don't have to drive down there?

Probably not.

I guess I'd better plan the trip soon. Last time I hit Bayern I froze my...um...nose off. Got snowed on. In August. (Well, okay. It was the Zugspitze, but...)

Last big snow we had down here was March 5th. Over 2 feet of the stuff. (Got that on tape too: http://www.christiangeology.com/video/snow.html )

The weather is getting much nicer these days in Bavaria, but bring a sweater or light jacket, still a wee bit nippy up in the burgs. Have fun.
