Seeking critiques ... What do you think? It's our first gig with GH2s

For a large number of shots the 'auto focus' seemed to kick in at an inopportune time. I don't have a GH-2, but the GH-1's 'autofocus-single', doesn't work for movie mode. I have resorted to using autofocus single to focus, then switching to manual focus mode. This prevents the autofocus from 'refocusing' during the shot.

Some of the field shots had 'clutter' in front of the couple. For stills, this could 'easily' be removed... but with moving pictures the clutter becomes more problematic.

Lens flare... while using lens flair is an aesthetic choice, I tend not to 'like it' too much.

Several of the cuts seemed 'chopped'. It was obvious the person doing the moving pictures was shooting on the side of the still photographer, and so, could not 'control'
the shot... on others, such as the reception 'table' shot, and the jack-o-lantern with the couple's names, were just plain too short.

Also... most DSLR video circuits/processing don't do so hot with strobe flash, and endup having a 'splotchy' look.
