A wee video of some plants in my back garden, in the rain. To test the camera, and its result on Youtube. This is using 35x optical zoom (to the full) on my new camera, and a tripod to keep the image somewhat steady. I shot it in 'fine' 16:9 mode, then converted it using Cyberlink PowerDirector to 25fps 344 by 468 pixels (not sure about the last bit), resulting in a 9MB wmv file to upload to Youtube.
The camera itself, and the deal I got from Curry's, both come highly recommended. It ranks with a Psion 5mx and an Olympos mini-mju 500 as the coolest gadgets I ever got.
Not sure regards the H in MG344H, it might be a newer model than my MG344 from this summer. Mine cannot shoot in HD, but can do Wide Screen - I should upload a better clip to Youtube to test, really.
