Excuse me sir but are you sure this video comes from a Sony DCR-SX40?

If true, let know how I can get that kind of video quality.

I have one DCR-SX40 and my story is very different from yours.

I want to know more about your techniques!

Thanks!

I am sure that all the video footage used in Sony sx40 Test Busy Bees 3 cam right out of the Sony sx40. I did experiment with the output of this camera and adjust the distance to the bees and the plane of focus until I get better quality output. I waited until the sun was above and arriving in beams through thick leaves.

The last shot I set the camera in line with the leaves at the end of a branch a few meters away so it was out of focus with the bees in between only 40 or 50 centimeters away from the lens. If you watch Busy Bees 2 you can see the arrangement better. The SX40 is not mounted upside down as the Canon HV20 is otherwise the set up is the same for both videos.

does this cam have lens threads

[whaleshrimp111]

it does not.

Low light and some shades of the color red are 2 real stumbling blocks for this camera. You can see how it handles motion by watching my test # 5. The sound was downloaded from the Free Sound Project then added to the sound tracks in editing. The camera records sound well, my location that is too loud for sound recording. Enjoy!

Wow, I really want to get this camcorder. Thanks for posting all this test videos!

The sound in this video was not recorded by the SX40 due to traffic noise from a near by road.

[hanzocloud]

then how was it recorded? with an add on mic?

[mahamza86]

The sound is recorded by built in mic right???

Cuz if it is, then its awesome.

The footage looks great in high light but what about low light.

Got any indoor or night footage?
