Canon XL2 Demo

A quick video showing some footage of outdoors, captured on a Canon XL2. Conditions weren't great, as the sun was constantly going in and out, and there was a strong wind too.

Footage is raw, but then shows the difference a little colour correction makes (this sweeps across the video). It's uploaded as 720p HD, as I read somewhere that when you shoot 25p on an XL2, you can upload as HD? Is this correct?

Shot in 25p, 1/50th shutter, 0db gain, ND filters.
Edited in Premiere Pro CS5.

@robbie7122 Hi, all the in-camera settings are standard, apart from the sharpness setting, which is slightly increased. This was shot in 25p, rather than 50i - which automatically gives it a high quality look in my opinion. I read somewhere that shooting in 25p means you can upload it to YouTube in HD, and that is what I did. Hope this helps.

@MEGABOINK65 Hi there, The footage is straight from the camera, however, you can see colour correction being applied, as it 'swipes' across the footage,
