Here's a Real Estate Promo fimed with the canon wd-72 wide angle converter in 30F. I really like that lens now.

Looks good. I'm trying to get an XH-A1 and WD-H72 now myself.

Wow, nice colours...

Any tips on framerate or colour presets??? The quality, and encode are fantastic...

I was suprised the footage came out good online, I think the wide angle converter might have something to do with it, and using the 2 pass CBR with Vegas.
That day I scored pristine conditions & perfect lighting. I've been tweaking Steven Dempsey's Panalook 2 for the past year and ramped it up a bit for colors. It works really good for the ocean, and when the light is bright. I like using the AV mode, setting the f stop till the color is crisp and nice, then locking the shutter with the EXP.LOCK button, 30F frame rate, -3 gain, no ND filter. I also turned the 'sky detail' off, don't know if that helped, but the blue sky and fluffy clouds look good.

I'm glad you posted this! I've been considering purchasing a wide angle adapter for my a1. Those rich vibrant colors really do it for me.
