Sony HDR-TG3 HD video

[JandeBloos]

Great video Anders - It really shows the capabilities in a variety of environments. I wondered how it performs recording live music/bands (anyway just ordered one so will find out soon!). Cheers.

[swanty32e]

@JandeBloos It doesn`t handle too much bass, I have HDR-TG3 and I recorded a Röyksopp concert and the sound was just distorted...

[psychoMoody]

hi dude, what about the focusing options ??

does it have manual focus ring or something ??

thanx

[froskus]

@psychoMoody Hi! It is mostly autofocus. You can manually adjust the focus with buttons on the touch screen (software buttons)... but that's not so easy when you are recording. So manual focus is best when you are going to record something with the same distanse all time during the shot...

[DutchVlogs]

nice thanks!

[beachfrontal]

Not impressed at all at all looks out of focus sorry, either things have moved on in one year, or the settings on this camera are all to clock, pause this video amywhere and that is as far removed from HD as you can get , I can only say thet things have moved on since 2008.

[dncviorel]

You are right.When the camera is moving the image becomes hazy.This is what out of focus means.Probably you can take good pictures, but video not really.

[bagzie]

Incredible picture. I just opened it to full screen and it did'nt lose any resolution at all. I'm buying one!!!!

Hi mate i want to buy this sony handycam...i've some questions:

1) How many fps this cam records in Full HD resolution? 30, 24 or 60?

2)I know that avchd videoediting is very difficult.Have you had some problems with your Adobe Pro Cs4? is this software easy to use?

3) I've a pc rig with a Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 (3,16 Ghz), 4 Gb Ram Ddr3 1333 Mhz, Sapphire HD4870 1Gb Graphic Card and 2x Maxtor 500 Gb raid 0 Hdds...is this system able to do avchd videoediting? Or i need a quad core?

[MagicParadise85]

PS: Nice video!! 5/5!

[froskus]

Hi!

I have the european version, so it captures video @ 25 fps in Full HD.

AVCHD editing works quite vell on my computer with Premiere Pro CS4.

My PC is:

quad core 2.4 GHz

4GB

Nvidia geforce 9600 GT

[jon204]

you should get sony vegas 9 thisis a sony product so you sony editing sofewere

[AkimboGT]

1) i just read that it films in 60fps and can go to 240fps (3sec long burst) and then it plays it back in 12secs. So you can watch it in slo-mo

[yos9636]

what programme do u use to eport it to 720p media??

many thnx

[froskus]

I'm using Adobe premiere Pro CS4 to edit my videos, and export them to other formats.

Premiere CS4 supports native editing of AVCHD files.

But you can use other editing applications as well.

Final Cut, Pinnacle Studio, iMovie ++

hi mate i have the same camcorder how do i uplaod my vidoes to youtube in hd?

if i take videos with my camcorder which is the same as urs would youtube automatically detect its full hd and upload it in hd or is there a option i need to choose please help me?

thnx

[froskus]

Hi!

I exported the edited video from my editing software to 720P windows media video, and uploaded that wmv file.

Then Youtube automaticly sees that it is HD video.

[nerdy59]

Wow ... Could you please tell me how you import your m2ts file into Premiere Pro CS4 ??

I've installed the demo version of it and am unable to import my files :(

[froskus]

Hi!

You just choose "import", select the m2ts file you want, and click import.

BUT the Demoversion of Premiere does not support of importing MPEG files....

i huess that's why it's not working for yoy

[MartinCVX]

Rigtig flot video.. Det gjorde i hvert fald det sidste jeg også har bestilt min version ;)

[JumpTeigen]

Det stemmer vel ikke at det bare er SD kort fra Sony som er kompitable me dette kameraet? Har tenkt meg det kameraet her til fallskjermhopping!

[froskus]

Kameraet bruker MemoryStick Pro Duo.

Går ut ifra at det er samma hvem som lager kortet, bare det er den typen.

[JumpTeigen]

Ok takk! du får si ifra om du selger :D

[AnonymAlkoholiker]

ser ut som ett sjukt rått kamera

[froskus]

tja...ikke akuratt det råeste men. Det gi greie bilder til den prisen/størrelsen :-D

[frin84]

Hey, nice video and quality. Where is the background music from and what is the title?

[froskus]

I am sorry, but I actually do not know. I was just something I found on my computer. "piano....something..music.mp3­"

[FrikZz0r]

Hey, great vid. I have the same camera and love it. Check out my latest video in hd :)

[dcolwell]

Good coverage of the camera capabilities.

[mindthomas]

Hej.

Hvorfor er det 720P?

TG3'eren kan jo godt optage i 1920x1080!

[froskus]

Fordi youtube ikke støtter mer enn 720 oppløsning mener jeg....

[zakcom]

Thank You very Much! A friend of mine is shooting something in London for my documentary. This video tells me a lot about the quality. Very well done!!!

[trainluvr]

Wow, my first 1080p viewing on Youtube. Thanks!

[froskus]

Well, actually the video is 720P.

1280*720 resolution, progressive frames.

[magnarfh]

Synes sangen var litt dårlig! Ellers var bildene imponerende!

[cyb3r031]

At last proper HD video demonstrating the capabilities of the camcorder! Good job :)

[987soyo]

Er det fokusring på HDR-TG3?

[froskus]

Nei, det er det ikke.

Men det er manuelt fokus via to knapper på touch-displayet. Der kan du fininstille om du skal fokusere på noe nærme, eller langt unna.
