Re: Analyze my footage...why the varying light?
The AF/AE Lock button is your friend.
Imagine the ability to press this button once and both AF and AE are locked no matter where you point the camera. Press the button again to unlock.

Re: GH2: Alcatraz Island (The Rock)
That is a fine lens collection Jeff. I'm convinced we all need a more objective measure of what low-light means to each of us. Where low-light to me might be a small room lit by one window, your...

Re: Analyze my footage...why the varying light?
A possibility:
Using M, S, A or P on the top dial provides full control for photos, but not video. This can also result in the strange LCD shift that some mention. For example setting the dial to...

Re: GH2: Alcatraz Island (The Rock)
Thank you for the good words Jeff.
The Lumix 14-140 is indeed a fine lens. For my last three projects, though I carry the Lumix 20mm f1.7, I've used the 14-140 for all indoor shots as well. Many...

Re: GH2: Alcatraz Island (The Rock)
Jeff,
I primarily shoot at 1080-60i, Vibrant, and +1 Saturation. Edit the files natively with Vegas Pro, then render 720-30p.
Thanks for watching.

Re: Relic (Abandoned Phoenix Trotting Park)
Thank you for the encouragement Jeff. The GH2 is a constant performer. Some of the interior was shot at ISO 3200 with the Lumix 14-140 and not a hint of noise. I'm still getting over the days of...

Re: Relic (Abandoned Phoenix Trotting Park)
Thank you for the good words Evan. I'm happy you and your friends enjoyed the project.
Like you, I've been driving past the structure for 30 years, and couldn't resist a closer look.
