Experimenting with a new camera

During today's lesson we experimented with different techniques on our new camera. These are some of the videos which we made whilst experimenting with the new techniques. We also tried to adjust the focus of the camera manually however we couldn't get it right. These videos are short little snippets we filmed to just get a feel for the camera. My partner Nicola was the one behind the camera for all but one of the shots, as she is going to be the one recording the majority of our video, she needed to be able to set the different effects we need. We did have more videos but I cannot upload them.

 We also tried Focus Adjustments, which we would like to use in our video, but unfortunatly we are having trouble figuring out how to make it work, Frame Rate, which was a little blurry, and we probably won't use it in the video, Image Stablization, which made the video slightly more still when we were walking, but again we don't have a reason to use this in our video. We also used the Low Level Exposure setting, which when viewed looked like I was standing in front of a white light, Manual Exposure which made the video lighter and darker, which could be used in our video, the Manual setting which didn't really do much, the Snow Setting which made the whole video lighter, and the Sun Set Setting which again made the video to dark.
