So here's the link (below) to my very first completed HD spot using my new XH A1s. It's for the Superbowl commercial contest being held by CareerBuilder.com.

I shot it with exposure lock ON, No presets, 30fps, in Auto mode, manual WB, gain on low. Color correction in post.

Thanks for watching.

Don't forget to click the "Watch in HD" button if it is not already selected;)

Yep, great in all departments. And great audio, the secret for TV spots. Maybe blow the burning ticket shot up to emphasis it ... you think?

Tell that guy to register as an entrant so when he loses the next ticket he still gets the $80mill :)

Cheers.

Well thanks Clare and Allan, much appreciated. I do like the wide shot for the ticket burning scene however I do wish I had used much bigger candles. I was originally going to throw the ticket onto a red hot lit cigar in an ashtray but changed it at the last minute to the candles. So on the way to the shoot I stopped at a thrift store and didn't think much when buying the candles. Oh well...

I'll let you all know if I make it into the top 10 where it will then go to public voting.

Thanks again!
