Song?
do manual controls (focus & zoom) work in movie mode?
@NoSevenProductions nope
@3puncte External Mic input?
@3puncte I think your video is awesome! Your purpose of your clip as your title says is of the “video test review” of this fantastic camera, and NOT the sound! Some of the wind can be heard around 3:15 which shows a bit of the original sound! I did some research on this camera today, and ended up buying 2 bundles (camera, mini-tripod, case, 4 GB memory card) for Christmas, 1 each for my wife and daughter! Your video makes me even happier that I bought this camera! Thanks!
How do you work the manual focus? BTW the terrible rolling shutter is probably due to the fact its a CMOS lens. At least its not a CCD where you’d have a purple streak going through the shot each time theres a strong light in the shot. Good review.
which is better for record??
this camera or s100?
hello is there a macro mode in the sx40? thanks
@Juanod09 you mean can it play pictures in slideshow mode? I believe it can but not video in slideshow mode.
@probacont2007 well, you are right, the sound is not amazing, like any other sound from a built in mic; since it was a windy day the sound was pretty harsh so that has my choice…
@defnyung ….hi , about SX40 ….can it play video in slideshow mode?
nice try but not good enough, you’ve got to test how it copes with rapid exposure changes by moving quickly from dark to light and rapid auto AF changes as well by doing the same thing.
What is the battery life on this Camera?
