This is just a test video for my new camera and lenses. I heard many reviews stating you could not adjust, or lock the exposure in movie mode. I managed to accomplish both, and it's fairly simple. You can even lock and unlock the automatic exposure setting while you are recording.
All of the clips were shot while manually focusing. The auto focus servo is fairly loud, and subsequently picked up by the microphone. If you plan on capturing mostly video on this camera and using auto focus, I would suggest using the hot shoe mounted stereo microphone available for this camera. All of the clips were shot in 720p High Quality, 24fps. My computer cannot handle playback of 1080p videos, let alone render them, so I cannot show any examples.
If you plan on editing the .MOV/H.264 files on this camera in Windows Movie Maker, you need to download the latest K-lite Codec package, which is available for free here: free-codecs.com/k_lite_codec_pack_download.htm
