GH3 and 35-100 AutoFocus Example
Here is a dance I shot Saturday using the gh3 and 35-100 (2.8, 500 ISP, 30fps, 1/60).
It is slightly over exposed and I will correct and grade later, but I was amazed at the quality of the autofocus tracking as this dancer moved around the stage. This cam was a B cam to another gh3 so I felt fine using auto focus. First time using auto focus and it ALMOST makes me want to switch to auto during bright ceremonies! As a side note, can anyone tell me about the banding in the background? What causes this? Is there a way to avoid it? |

Yes it handled it very well and your manual zooming was pretty smooth as well. Props. Were you just holding the camera itself or were you using any kind of a rig?

Thank you for the kind compliments. My intention was only to show how great this AutoFocus worked.
I am left handed, so I had this camera on a Manfrotto tripod with the stick in my right hand and my left hand (dominant) on the zoom ring. I have found that a professional tripod set of stix and head can mean more for your video than many other accessories. Certainly made this contant camera work easier! I also had middle-back wide camera recording when I did screw up :) |
