aww wow, thx for the up, it works so nicely, are there hiccups as you make the video?

[segiterrus]

Np, the vid comes out silky smooth. Its a million times better than the digital zoom we are forced to use out the box, if we want to make vids with any zoom involved.

Is there any chance to make AutoFocus when zoom is in? Like on this video --> /watch?v=GWYSgOHPf2s .

[junkerde]

i wish i could add some kind of external mic cuz the zooming sound is annoying

[pohgejib]

awesome! but why without autofocus?
