Got some fantastic footage last Friday at my old High School's championship football game. The bulk of the video is shot with a GH2 @ 1080p 132mbps, though the overcrank stuff is all stock firmware. There's also a decent amount of Canon 60D in there, and a little bit of 7D as well. Overall, the image out of the GH2 is unreal, and it's so small and light that I could cover an entire event by myself with no worries. The EX tele mode is wonderful for getting extra reach out of your lenses, and the micro 4/3 sensor offers (IMHO) the best compromise between controllable DOF and crop.

As always, comments and criticism is welcomed!

 
Have vimeo loading times been terrible for anyone else recently? Anyway, great video. Some very very good shots.
 
As has been said already the footage is great. Editing is very nicely done as well. Just curious... what lenses did you use on the GH2?
 
Thanks to everyone for watching so far.

The vast majority of the shots are a Canon 135 f/2 on the GH2. The locker room stuff (and a couple of sideline shots) are a Tokina 11-16 (a real workhorse with the GH2), and there's a Sigma 50 f/1.4 in there somewhere too. Everything was done with a monopod (which is fun at an effective 270mm, or 700mm in ex tele with no IS).
 
Great looking footage and great camera work. Whites looked better than I thought the would coming out of the gh2.
 
Agree with all of the above...Great shots!! Great Coverage and Great Editing...really well done and yes the gh2 is amazing...
