I can tell this shot was done with manual white balance. The dangers of manual white balancing.

What??

That makes absolutely no sense at all. You should always manually white balance any time there is a shift in light/location.

The problem with that screengrab is just plain out of focus.

there is a problem with vertical banding while using the manual white balance. it doesn't happen when using the presets, just manual... I don't know why it happens, but it is there.

i have a question. how do you manually set the white balance lol, ive been trying to figure that out lol. Also, i had the same problem Mike. Did you compress it or is it uncompressed footage that you took a screen grab??

I have been shooting with the DVX for over 2 years, and I always manually white balance and I have never seen results like that. If you get vertical banding then that is not normal.

Oh no, it's the dreaded vertical bands! I can tell this shot was done with manual white balance. Look at the wall, there are these faint vertical stripes. The dangers of manual white balancing.

I think those vertical lines are part of the wallpaper.

Well i just watched the video. Theres actually many small tiles that the wallpaper is made up of. Heres 2 more pictures. The second one shows horitontal lines also. Magid, the grab was straight off my timeline after i captured the footage. i guess that would make it uncompressed??

 

[Super Trooper]

yeah, those lines just looks like the wall to me.

Haha, that is hilarious, it is the wallpaper. Looks exactaly like the vertical band problem.

Look, there is a vertical band problem with manual white balancing on all Panasonic cameras that I have used, consumer and prosumer. It's generally not noticable when you have your exposure dead on when white balancing, but can show up in a lot of circumstances, and when color correcting. I have posted examples pics in the past. Everytime I have used manual white balancing, with a number of Panasonic cameras, I have had the exact same issue.
