Sanyo Xacti DMX-CG10の夜景モードを試してみました。満足しています。特に黒色が素晴らしい。中野通りから新青梅街道へ出て小金井街道にさしかかるまでの距離です。印象派風の­車窓動画になっていればうれしいのですが・・・。

This is a test recording for Xacti dmx-cg10 in the night-view mode. I'm quite satisfied with this unexpected result. It turned out to be an almost impressionistic visual sketch and I find its color black especially superb. I hope you will enjoy watching Tokyo at around midnight. I started recording this visual sketch at the exit to New Oume Highway from Nakano Highway and stopped doing at the intersection of New Oume and Koganei Highway.

Background music : "Round About Midnight" by Gotan Project

  • Have you heard the Nighthawks version of this song? I immediately thought of it as soon as I heard the trumpet, then realized it's a cover of the same song - the arrangement is different, however.

  • @Renulph Yeah, Nighthawks version is also cool, only their sound is rather inclined to Fusion or so-called Smooth Jazz. You might as well listen to Mile Davis' most famous version of it. The album title itself is Round Midnight and most of mute trumpet sound we hear these days are all copied from or 'inspired by' Miles Davis. I think the trumpet player Reiner Winterschladen of Nighthawks wishes he could play like Wayne Shorter.

  • Nice song!

  • @PureS0u1 Yeah, I like it very much. Please check up that well-known Miles Davis' version.

  • What settings were used for this shot? ISO 50 or 100?

  • @syn3rgetic I was not conscious of ISO setting when I made this video. My camcorder is set on Automatic Mode, I guess.

  • @MrXactiman I like their version because it has those liquidy "wah-wah" effect chords and electronic effects with a pleasant noir vibe. Wouldn't call it smooth jazz, it's probably closer to acid or space jazz.

    I'm not a big fan of them, but their cover is super dope to me. I like fusion, by the way, but not smooth jazz (it makes me cringe most of the time).

  • I can guarantee that you would be able to travel light with a Sanyo Xacti DMX CG-10. (Gee, I sound like a public-relations guy from Sanyo even though I have never worked for Sanyo.)

  • wow thanks so much for your video. I'm definitely going to get this camcorder for my upcoming trip ^^ Thanks!
