Washington DC Canon VIXIA HF100 High Definition (HD) Test (720p)

Quick edit of footage taken in Washington DC with a Canon VIXIA HF100. I wanted to see how the camera would perform in low light settings using the cinema mode. Some shots were handheld, while others were using a mini-tripod.

I adjusted contrast, saturation, color, and sharpness in Sony Vegas 9. I think the noise was magnified by the sharpening.

very awesome video! I think this is the low light test I was looking for! Did you use any special affects, adjustments or tweaks when you input it into your computer? Or is this raw footage?

Thanks for sharing!

[Vahkil]

Thanks, it has some contrast/brightness/sharpening done to it. It isn't raw footage.

@199FOE Lol thats why I put mine on too haha.

[MichaelJacksonSpin]

@199FOE I thought so ;) but you wouldent get any comments if you just watch the video on your computer desktop would you, hehe thats why we have to put it up here .

[199FOE]

@MichaelJacksonSpin Oh yea i definatly does, I have the same camera, and before I put it on here it looked worlds better.

[MichaelJacksonSpin]

@199FOE 720, but youtube does alot of tough compression on the video when is uploaded, so i guess i looks better on your computer before you uploaded it.

[199FOE]

@MichaelJacksonSpin What do you have the youtube res set to? Mines set to 720p and looks just fine.

[MichaelJacksonSpin]

full screen, looks terrible, graini as hell

@cookwerth he probably shot 1920 x 1080 and then scaled using sony vegas to 720
