Sony HX100v Camera Test on The Watercress Line

This video was shot in HD on the new Sony HX100v bridge camera. It was filmed at Alresford Station, from the picnic area above the station and from the goods platform. It shows two class 5 steam locomotives and a 1+3 car DMU arriving and departing on Easter Monday 2011 on one of the "Day Out With Thomas " days. The weather was bright and very warm.

Nice puffer mate..was that Gordon?? I just got the HX100v myself.

anti-wind noise not set I presume?

[theghostontheline]

@fabianfred537 Thanks for comment, I have never used the anti-noise setting, I think it tends to reduce the quality of the sound. Enjoy your camera, Sony have got a winner with this one.

I am very pleased with the camera, as you can see the video quality is very good, these were not taken on the highest quality setting! As for stills yes they are very good for the type of camera, just remember it is a bridge camera not a DSLR. The Sony has 30x zoom and many other good features that make a a no brainer for the price!! if you can find one buy it you will be very happy.

@theghostontheline This might be the most impressive image stabilization I've ever seen.
