Its a toy but a damn cute and yummy toy, and even more insane is the fact that the Brevis 35 mini 35 adapter can be used on it haha

Check out the link - looking good ;)

Basically ive seen a few hdv shorts made from this and for a consumer it does exceptionally well, and if i was getting my first cam this would be the first id save for (for that budget)

So congrats mon amie!

Can i ask one question? Was that video a live shot? Reason im asking is cos that bird did look a bit cgi, if it wasn't then its a good camera

I already knew about the DOF adapters as Zacattack might be making one soon.

It's a real hummingbird and the zoom was done in post, showing only small grain which made me happy. I changed the shutter speed to 1/100, yes it has variable shutter speeds and can shoot in 24 fps.

Point isnt that you should know cos er Zac's making one - its cos the Brevis 35 (one of thee most popular presently along with the m2, and the SgPro for us indies that is) has a special set up especially for the HV20 ;)

Nice, edible camera there. You should keep that footage, would make a great opening shot for some early mornign sort of thing... (when cut down). The plot in that film was great. Good job.
