Canon HV30 Sample Footage

Here's the first footage from my new HV30. I bought it for an overseas trip, and found some Formula 1 cars in Zurich airport that made a fine subject. Put together this one minute clip and uploaded it while waiting for my next flight.

Good stuff! The color is great, would never have expected that out of a consumer cam. But I see that you haven't removed the pulldown yet, which is resulting in distracting strobes.

Yes the colours impressed me as well.

Pulldown? I don't think there is any pulldown as I edited 25P and rendered 25P. I think what you are seeing is Vimeo's brutal frame-rate conversion. For some reason, they insist on converting everything to 30P and this is the result. But I would rather have this jerkiness than the extreme compression that other sites like Youtube apply.
