I am thinking about purchasing the Letus35 Mini for my HV30 (which Crank 2 used 12 of Canon HF10/100's), and have been looking at some smooth videos on Vimeo with the HV30 and Letus combo to solidify my decision. But the SLR angle is also tempting me... <br />One thing I would like to share with you guys is a trick I learned and tested with my camera; first I bought a ND2 filter and put it on, then I got my daughters to stand in front of different objects but about 50 to 60 feet away from them, then I stood maybe 25 feet away from them and had someone about 3 ft away from me for the over the shoulder shot, then I zoomed into my daughters and this drastically narrowed the depth of field, making only my daughter in focus, giving the world around a great out of focused look with good looking perspective.<br />Sorry to be long, but its a great trick with prosumer camcorders and it works.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04624211195663096062noreply@blogger.com
