I'd be surprised if it's caused by the snow as the wobble is happening on the rails too. It looks like it was shot through rising warm air. Was it shot through a window?

CX6 Footage

I recently decided to pick up a small camcorder for family stuff where taking along a bigger camera seemed overkill.

I shot some car footage using fast pans and didn't notice it at all, it's only really going backwards and forwards that highlights it and I can't think why anyone would want to do that anyway unless...

Here's the test I did, I'm not 100% sure of the settings I used, I think it was 720/25p with shutter at 50 (speed).

The camera was mounted on a tripod. I didn't consider it to be a problem, in...

I don't recall seeing a firm indication of the actual focus distance on the DOF bar other than the bar itself, although you can turn on a distance display and set it to either feet or metres.

I agree with Steven, can we please not dilute and derail this thread as it could be an important factor in Sony understanding the problems some of us are facing.

Thanks

No it's not, the Macro switch does not function in full MF mode.

Also carroll, the camera does have picture profiles "CINE1" etc, but you need to apply them to the profiles in the menu.

Yours doesn't look so bad Steven, it seems the sensors are biased to the right side and hence only showing the effect on the right. Eric's on the other hand looks almost as bad as the one I had.

I'm not so sure that's correct. The EX1 does not record audio at all whilst overcranking so that part is certainly wrong.
