Underwater world Adventure at Mall of America shot with Panasonic Lumix LX3 video sample in HD

Full 8 minute clip. Giant underground aquarium at the Mall of America in Bloomington, MN taken with pocket digital camera in HD video mode. The low light presented some interesting challenges, but the LX3 in 720 High Definition mode did pretty good for what it is. Not bad from a pocket digital still camera.

This aquarium is the largest below ground indoor aquarium. The visitors travel along a slow moving conveyor or have the option of walking along the path beneath the acrylic tube with sharks and other exotic fish swimming around and above you.

Definitely worth the 18 dollar price of admission which lets you visit as often as you want for that day.

I've been there! Back probably about 8 or so years ago when I was a child - a cool place...

By the way, how do you like the camera? I'm looking to buy a decently creative compact. I'm mostly considering more creative superzoom cameras, like the Sony DSC-H20, and ones like it, but the 24mm wide-angle and creativity catches my eye as well as the HD movie mode. Do you find the small telephoto to be very limiting?

Thanks, I'd really appreciate a response if you can afford the time!

The LX3 is unique in two ways. The larger sensor for a compact point and shoot allows for cleaner low light images than your average camera in its class. The 24mm wide angle lens is fast and allows for clean wide point of view ideal for low light. I don't find the lack of zoom range limitning considering the trade offs.

The HD (1280x720) is nice to have in this compact package.

Downside is that it is priced at entry level DSLR prices.
