Very nice, Luke. When we had snow I decided to stay indoors by the radiator - I wish I'd gone out with my camera now!

The jerking is something that Vimeo seems to suffer from; I think it may be something to do with conversion from 25p to 24p.

2 pans are still jerky on my 42 inch, the main pan down on the cemetary gate

The White Balance symble for Outdoor is a black dot with rays (dashes) around it.

The Indoor is a light bulb.

A and B are two custom presets for white balance that you can set them switch between. The idea is to point the camera at something white (a piece of card - or an expensive piece of card if you buy them specially) and push the wheel to set what the camera "sees" as white.

The other symbols are the bulb for indoors and the sun for outdoors.

The manual is (or at least was!) available as a PDF download in a sticky post at the top of this forum, by the way.

Luke,
Very nice video. Makes me excited to go out and shoot and get creative again. I'm a recent convert from (still) digital photography to video and love seeing what everyone is doing. Did you use anything for some of the effects or is that all right out of the camera? I've been an architectural and commercial photographer for the last decade and nothing in my world of knowledge doesn't go though post like Photoshop or something similar. Nice work.

Great stuff there! As for WB, for snow I would think doing a custom WB using a white card may be a better way to make sure you don't get blue snow, or worse, yellow snow!

I noticed at the end the girl running had some interlacing artifacts. I'm curious to know how they ended up there since you shot in progressive and I assume kept the workflow progressive for web playback.

I also wonder if you shot with the image stabilization on while panning. When I first got my V1 I did various tests and didn't really notice a difference between on or off while panning/tracking/booming but the recent 25p discussions here have me curious to retest the impact of stabilization on 24/25p.

Anyway, great work!
