A test done at 1080i60 (1080 interlaced and 60fps) on 3rd tier recording quality setting, which was forced by a cheap no-name brand 16GB Class 4 "SDHC" card that I received in a kit. Awaiting a 16GB Class 10 "real SDHC" by Transcend at the time of this upload.
The quality is already impressive on its own, but I expect more from the highest quality mode at either 1080p24 or 720p60. Furthermore, I have reason to believe that even with the 3rd tier recording quality setting, a proper SDHC card would yield better quality results. In other words, the no-name brand may not really be fully taking advantage of the 3rd tier mode. I adjusted many settings for this test, so this isn't a test with factory default settings.
I was pulling focus for practice and it appears to be an easy smooth action, but it's hard to know when you begin to zoom in too much. I say this because the focus automatically changes when you zoom in at a certain point. There's no way to know every time because you also have to take the distance between the camera and the subject into consideration when zooming. This doesn't matter too much since zooming isn't normally done while filming, however, dollying is one thing to worry about because that is moving the camera, which means the distance will change.
One thing I notice is that this test footage appears to be dark when it looks well-lit on my HDTV. Furthermore, this footage has not been modified in post. This is straight from the camera in AVCHD format. Also, YouTube usually gimps many videos in terms of quality and artifacts, but this video turned out pretty well, surprisingly.
