Obviously HD is alot harder to keep in focus. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for me stay in focus at all times. I shot a wedding last weekend and was finding it a bit tricky to stay in focus. Than again the lighting in the church was awful. What is a good way to practice?

I was using the HVX202 - and found an external monitor with peaking display indispensable for fixing the poor focusing aids on that camera.

Since moving over to HPX172 - the need to carry that external monitor has gone. And 2kg less to huff puff (including one AB battery) :-).
