Very nice, crisp and clear!!! The guys with slow connections will hate you and the ones with dial up will wish you purgatory... :-)

man that spray on "artificial" dust on the air vent is realistic !!!!

The clarity on the video is excellent, I can see a new addition to my Christmas list :smile:

Very Nice! Looks like you have a good eye behind the camera.

I like the editing and music selection too.....I kept expecting the voiceover to come at any second like the show "Rides" :D

Any chance of you getting us onto Poplar Creek for a round of golf? You had better hurry though, the snow can may start falling at any time.

OMG!!! The image quality is beautiful...even on a standard def. screen!! I could only image what that looks like on "the real thing". Great shots!! :-D

Just out of curiousity, what camera was used for that?

Very, very nice! I loved the music! Reminded me of Keiko Matsui. Anyway, great film and the camera has excellent detail and definition. Your perspective was great on "Life in A Day". You capture so many ELEMENTS! Other vehicles, birds, planes, copters, the clouds with some contrails, the sunlight as it reflects in different hues. Man! Though being a cop, the police side of me was trying to figure out where this was. I saw plenty of Illinois plates. Also after the security guard directing traffic, it goes to an office building either at sunset or sunrise and you can see something flying in the background. Airplanes or UFO's. We may need to notify the X-Files on that. :D

Would love to see another production from you. Maybe different aspects of the Element in travel. E-Shen did one at night and it was at high speed and I mean super high speed. The lights were fantastic. Anyway, put together another for our viewing pleasure. Thanks for sharing and again, great film and camera!

PEace!

Got it figured out, after the security guard directing traffic, the office building that is shown and to the right of it there were some objects flying in the background from right to left. Well there not UFO's but some sort of bird but the HD has them looking so smooth in flight and the way the light reflected off of a couple of them, I thought maybe we needed to scramble some jets for unknown bogies!

Again, great video! What kind of camera, make and model?

THanks for the comments..

I don't think Canon makes anything cheap or should I say inexpensive. For that price, I that price I think that was a good deal considering what I saw and I'm sure it will do much, much more. Nice!

Cheapest I've seen is $649 and the high end is $899 to $969.

$599, you got a pretty good deal!

It might sound good with The Soprano's theme song playing too. :)
Next time film a car (not the Element) running over a fruit cart or being chased by a police car.

Cool! I have that camcorder! I bought it when it first came out (for double that price because had to have it in time for a vacation!) I'll shoot some HD video of my E soon!
