You won't want to use MF for travel videos, I also shoot HD video with MF until I got a HD videocam (but it has a small sensor with huge DOF). Now with the FZ1000's 1" sensor and great AF capability, I won't MF anymore but I do manual exposure most of the time.

BTW, the FZ1000's video is sharper than my 5D II, if not for shallow DOF, there is no reason to go back.

Michael,

I shoot a lot of video with various cameras...I always use manual focus and manual exposure.

Thanks CH.

I experienced video shooting with my ex-LX5 and the format of video was not friendly as it couldn't be played in my MBP directly and the format must be
converted.

I appreciated that MOV format for video of Olympus digital camera, I may
easy to play & edit the video.

I hope Panasonic will change the video format to MOV that I will have more
option.


Cheers,
Michael

You may try FZ1000, the video AF works for me. It do 50p while the E-M5 is only 30p, not good for panning videos. There are also much more control on the FZ1000's focusing and video settings. The zoom action and lens quality
of FZ1000 is not perfect but excellent at that price (I paid ~$677 for
mine).

Thanks Moose's advice.

Video shooting is a new task for me and I have to learn more about it.

Recently, I joined an video shooting related safety at work with training
department of my working company. I found the official video production
team in my working company that they use Sony A7 for video shooting with
Zeiss Cine-lens. Yup, they use MF focus.

Video shooting will be a gimmick for me so that I won't invest for
professional video shooting stuffs. I probably go to buy some accessories
for my Olympus M4/3 system for video shooting.



Cheers,
Michael
