more Sony HDR-TG3 HD video

Are these the stock settings of the camera or did you change anything in particular? I just bought this camera but it appears to me that your picture quality is sharper than what I get.

And also how did you move the focus from the twig to the background on 0:22-0:24?

Thanks a lot!

@beyondtheboundaries Actually I played around with the settings and realised mine were set to 7m/sec so I put them to 16m/sec. Everything changed! Thanks for uploading a video with good quality, most people have upped videos from this camera in 480p.

@beyondtheboundaries Hi! Everything is factory setttings. The only thing I have done is turning on the "X.V. Color" option in "Movie settings".

Regarding the manual focus I did on 0:22 - 0:24:

If you press the "quick menu" button in bottom right corner in recording mode, you will find a button labeled "Focus". Press this once and you will get option for manual / automatic focus....

[beyondtheboundaries]

@froskus Thank you.

[beyondtheboundaries]

@froskus Just one more question, how does the XV color option affect the video? Thanks!

@beyondtheboundaries

Hi! I tried now... but I can not see any color difference between" X.V. Color" on/off setting...

[beyondtheboundaries]

@froskus Isn't this 0:22-0:24 called the shallow depth of field effect?

[beyondtheboundaries]

What a great picture quality!

thanks for the video - were the shots using AUTO or TWILIGHT mode? or did you go manual exposure? coz i didn't see any grain on the video...

thanks

[froskus]

Hi!

SceneSelection, exposure, Focus ++ is in automode.

[pofrani]

thanks. how come there's no grain on your video? :-(

this cam is not good in low light... and your shots look damn good!

[froskus]

The video becomes grainy when there is dark outside/inside. Se my video "Lighting of the Christmas decorated shopping street (in HD!)" for example.
