Prospect Park Brooklyn - Shot with Nikon D7000

Music: Phoenix - Lisztomania

I made this video with my new Nikon D7000, more as a test of the camera than anything else. I shot the clips over 2 days, about 4 hours of walking around Prospect Park in Brooklyn.

From the technical end, I shot in Manual focus and Manual exposure. It was edited in Final Cut Pro and I did a very minor color correction in Apple Color. When I say minor, basically I mean I tweaked contrast or exposure in a few shots. The stuff out of the camera, at least the stuff that I exposed well was very impressive. I realize focus isn't perfect, as sometimes it can be hard to focus in live view for quick setups. I don't have any fancy equipment like lcd hoods or magnifiers or external monitoring. No sliders, ND filters, or anything like that either, though it would be nice.

Hope everyone likes it and can get an idea of what the camera can do. All in all I am impressed, though I do miss the extra frame rate controls offered by the Canons.
