Shot some footage of sand dunes and dune grasses at sunrise along Lake Superior lakeshore, I just have to report for anybody interested that the footage was amazing, very much with a film cinematic feel, I almost expected Kevin Costner to come walking over the ridge like in Dances with Wolves. I am very impressed with high definition digital shot at 24p. I am anxious to film my first shorts (I wrote 5 scripts last month, gathering props, location scouting, will find the actors in a couple of weeks and then shoot). I am sure the film look is there at 24p for just about all HD digital camcorders. I have yet to try the black pro most filter I recently acquired.

Can you post a portion of the clip to give me an idea of the quality?

I am uploading a clip now, will post url later when it is done. It will not be HD, which defeats the purpose somewhat, I had to downsize it to 720x480 or the bandwidth for downloads would sap me for my monthly quota.

Here is a 720x480 one minute clip, originally show in widescreen HDV and subsequently downsized. I also boosted the color saturation and contrast slightly, although much of the color is natural because I was at the beach at dawn to catch the magic hour of warm hues. I added in a subtle soundtrack just to start playing with that skill.

The above link will only be valid for a few days, then I will remove the video so the global internet world does not suck my monthly bandwidth quote off my website. But you guys reading this if interested please do download it, no worries.
