I bought an SD9 a few months back to test my possible future workflow in HD with the HMC150, also to have a nice small 24P HD camera, and so far so good.

I work for a video company that mainly does live video and projection, and during the summer we shoot all the summer concerts for the Boston Symphony at Tanglewood in Lenox, MA. Well I had a few hours off between the morning rehearsal and that nights concert, so I wondered round the grounds and shot a few things. Nothing fancy, just random stuff. If anyone is how I got such a wide angle on some of the shots, I'm using a cavision .3x fisheye.

I also uploaded a version thats not color corrected for anyone who wants to see what the raw footy looks like.
 
It's nice footage Bo, and a good effort.

Not a criticism of you, but the yellow tint and oversaturated green color look is why I couldn't embrace the cam.

I think it results from any 24p Cinema mode footage.

The cam doesn't allow you to shoot 24p unless it's in Cinema mode, and that results in a look I just don't like and I can't correct in post.

But that doesn't reflect on what you shot.
 
It's not a perfect cam by any means. You don't like the colors it produces, and I have some gripes with it's manual control. But for what it costs compared to the image it can capture I'm more than happy with it. It's a nice On the go/Vacation/B-cam.

The colors look fine to me in the raw version, but I like my colors a little over saturated. The yellow tint is from my color correction, but again I wasn't aiming any any particular look, just messing around with an idea to create an HDR look with video that went in another direction.
