I was at the airport one day and brought my camera.

Auto focus, pro-cinema mode, EIS enabled. Hand-held completely. Audio is 16 bit, wind cut enabled. I had the white balance preset enabled. I'm not sure exactly what it is but I pressed the WB button twice.
Took raw footage and used Virtualdub to compress it using Divx 6.1 (I think it's 6.1). I also deinterlaced it.

The first clip was shot in 4:3 and I forgot to edit it out so it looks weird. And in one of the clips near the end, the picture appears to have a blue hue. That was because I had the camera on quickstart and turned it on real fast to catch the plane coming in. I guess the sensor did not fully adjust in time.

Ouch, 174MB at a snail's pace of a download. Got anything smaller?

Unfortunately not. I wanted to test this codec and see how it was with quality/size. It has the same quality as the raw footage, minus very small detail. 1.14gb to 174mb.

I was interested to watch it. But my browser gave an estimate to take 50 minutes to download. I gave up.

I will try and host it on rapidshare, they have excellent servers but everytime I have it uploaded around 70%, it goes to a "connection problem page".

This should be a lot faster.

If you don't know, to download, just scroll down and press the FREE button.
You will then have to wait for X amount of time and then prompted for a code number displayed.

The footage is ok. But I really think that you should use tripod to shoot. Your hand cause instant shaking to the camera. Another issue is don't use zoom. It will make your footage like video. But it actually is video. ;-)

Yeah, I just brought along my camera for the day. I was just messing around. Plus I don't think the police would like if I had a full scale tripod and everything back there. They kicked me out in the end.
