Thank you Chad!
Yeah it was good adventure to shoot! )
This behind the scene of me could show a bit of atmosphere on the set :)

Most of night traffic is HV20. Also most in car shots. All shot in 25p. One minus I found too late -- it was often missing focus in low light.. When I set it manually some good shots already was made slightly blurry..

About low light settings. The trick is to fully overlap camera lens with white screen of mobile phone and let it autoexpose. Then fix exposure and correct it to "+". White screen brightness should be guessed experimentally.. Current shutter speed/iris can be seen by surpressing "photo" button (if you have miniSD flash card on its place). In this way you can restrict unnecessary gain or shutter slow down and get very good picture in dificult lighting.. I think 25p mode of HV20 is close to Sony 2100 on sencitivity when properly set.

Thanks, Buba!
I'm looking forward for winter drift shoot we planned. This gets adrenaline rush )
