Holly... grall! Green is nice :)

just... wow

I wish I had your steady hand- that alone is impressive but you really captured nice color - your settings were spot on. A must as reference (you actually make green quite nice).

@Maria
Steady hand = the HV20 touched the window :-) and I stabilized the cam with my hand.

The colors and lighting were amazing.... was this shot at a zoo?

that's sick. absolutely gorgeous footage.

I was so waiting for that thing to launch right at the camera lens-
Thanks for the idea of a new to try and film-

I can't believe I watched the whole thing!

When I read LOCUSTS I thought "oh great... another lame macro photography clip!"

But you caught me from the first shot :)

Wonderful framing and excellent focus. The music is wonderful to and matched the mood of the clip. The colours are nice.

You just should've de-interlaced it before exporting :)

Now go ahead... get yourself an HV20 :)

Did you use a DOF adapter? Or is this all in camera optics?

God, it's amazing how cool things look in HD!!!

What music did you use on your video?

That was some huge grasshoppers!
Here up in Norway we just have tiny grasshoppers wich is not able to fly.

Que bellos insectos!
La composicion de video y musica es muy buena, genera un ambiente propicio para no perder atencion

What a beautiful insects!
The composition of video and music is so good, it generates an propitious ambient to no lost the attention

Nicely Done, Live action and a sound beat. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing...

veriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii nice

good example of DOF on stock HV20. Nice!

Ok what were your settings ...because that was just wow!

What setting did you film in, 24p? When you do manual focus like this, if you zoom out does it go back to auto focus?

I'm VERY interested in getting this camera but I need to know just a few more things!

What the heck is Canopus Procoder? How much and did you record this in 720p? I didn't know it could do that...

Fl!nt

I just ordered my HV30. I'm really excited about getting it. Comes in 6/20 from B&H.
Thanks for this upload.

my jaw just dropped so far it fell off.
