dear yuks, i love you.

I liked this one A LOT! Very cute, very dynamic. You used quite a high shutter speed when capturing it, what was it?

Quick note:

I'm not sure why little gray boxes are flickering up at the beginning, anyone else seeing those?

That's called artifacting. It happens when your connection is either not so good or the video was recorded improperly.

I actually don't see them, so I dunno what is up with you.

AND SHUT UP. I'LL "LIKE" IT WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT!

That's awesome. What a cool little guy.

Perfect. You give these things a life of their own, Taylor.

Okay, my favorite parts-when Yuki is half in view but you can see his pokey things sticking up--then he inverts under the step-way cool shot there. Also, when the percussion kicks in (great track selection, too) with the timing of his scadaddling across the deck. Enjoyed it and you know how hard sequels are to pull off--great one.

Quality of the movie is once again magnifiscent! The V1253 has a depth of field I like I have never seen before in any camera under $1500. I investigated the sensor size of this camera, it's a near full 2/3 inch sensor! All the other consumer and prosumer camera's use an 1/3 inch sensor AT MOST! DOF is really important to get that cinematic look. The large sensor size also gives great dynamic range of the colors. It's a pity this camera has no manual settings and the progressive X264 codec is a little sparse (13Mbps), although still much better than the Sanyo's (9 Mbps) and the interlaced AVCHD format.
