@ballinlough12345 Thanks for watching :-)

What car do you drive, it seems pretty quiet.

What's the location? Where is this filmed? What's point A and point B?

[AFNenlighten]

It's surprising that no one lists their settings. Even for the photos in those places I've mentioned and even the groups on Flickr, people rarely list their settings. Your vids are crystal clear and that's why I'm asking. .

Anyway, thanks for sharing your vids!

I also have the Lumix FZ35. What settings did you use for this? Or when you are driving in your other vids? Do you use the Creative movie mode, or just set it to iA and press the record button?

[rtviews]

@AFNenlighten I used the movie mode. iA didn't seem to give good quality.

@rtviews Thanks - now for a few questions about your movie mode settings :)

Exposure Mode, P,A,S, or M? ISO Sensitivity, Auto, or manually set? Do you use ISO limit? For White Balance, AWB or use the "sunny setting? Continuous AF, off or on? Which of the 3 Metering modes? I. Exposure, Off, Low or High? Continuous AF, on or off?

Sorry for all of the questions, but after searching DP forums,Steve's forums, and even the user group on Vimeo,

@AFNenlighten Exposure P, Sensitivity 400, White Balance AWB, AF/AE, Metering Mode 1st one, I.Exposure Off, Digital Zoom Off, Color Effect Warm, Stabilizer Mode1

Most of my highway driving is during sunset, so lighting hasn't been great, in addition to the wet, snowy condition. I haven't tested any of these modes against one another, so you might find a better setting. The only thing to note is to set focus to infinity/distance and leave it there.

[AFNenlighten]

@rtviews Thank you sir!

I looked for the "infinity" setting and found that it was in the scene mode with the "mountain" icon.

As an aside, I also purchased the DMW-LA3 barrel extender, then bought a 55 to 52mm step-down ring so I can use the filters from my Nikon FM film camera (which has been sold years ago). The only drawback to that is having to minimum zoom to at least 100mm or so to eliminate the "tunnel vision" but it's worth it.

Thanks for sharing your vids - please keep 'em coming :)
