HVX does Las Vegas

Well, I'm back from a 10 day vacation in Denver and Las Vegas. I'm happy to say that the HVX and FS-100 performed admirably. By the weekend I'll post more clips on my website, but this is just a quick h264 clip from the MGM Grand Hotel where the Lions were proudly on display. The video is good considering the Lions are on the other side of a thick glass or plexy wall.
But the videos that showed what the HVX can do with some tweaking are forthcoming. I've confirmed alot of what you've been reading here all along about the HVX. I didn't try to duplicate any test that others here have put alot of time and effort in bringing good information to us here in the forums. I did, however, get loads of real world video in a vacation type presentation. I filmed the Vegas Strip day and night, Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon from above, below, in a helicoptor, on a boat on the Colorado River, Denver, Estes Park, The Stanley Hotel (Where the Shining was inspired) and more. Great Clips from inside the Bellagio, Ceasers and others. Anyway, more info next week after I get it all sorted. I was also doing comparisons on 2 DSLR's, the Olympus E500, and the Sony A-100.

Here's the Lion Clip. By the way, I couldn't think of music that would go with the clip so I decided on content rather than beats.

Sorry man but I fell asleep watching it, did the lions do anything?

Oh, and by the way:
Stanley Kubrick's movie The Shining was NOT filmed at the Stanley Hotel however. It was shot at Elstree Studios near London.
 
Yeah...we tried to incite the Lions into a feeding frenzy with the 2 guys in the cage but to no avail. We were at least hoping for a Gazelle to be tossed in but no go.

The Lions were very docile and just wanted to sleep. Hence the boredom of the crowed.

However, we couldn't shake the feeling that, to the lions, we looked like steaks.

And I was wrong about the filming of the Shining. Stephen King's novel was "inspired" by his stay at the Stanley Hotel where he wrote most of the book. His 1997 miniseries however, was filmed at the Stanley.
