GH1 w/ Nikkor 50mm Prime Low Light and Outdoor Night Tests

16 Mar

All audio captured by GH1 internal stereo mic. All shot with the Nikkor 50mm prime on the GH1 in FHD 1080p (mostly ISO 1600, Shutter Speed 1/60) The darkest sections of all the out door shots are disgusting, it could be my cameras settings but as far as I know the GH1 just can’t handle really low lit situations.

My af-s nikkor 18-55mm 1:35.5-5.6GII ED lens keeps jumping and clicking half way through its focusing cycle. i definatly doesn’t sound healthy but it doesnt seem to be affecting the cameras autofocus. I just would like to know if this could get worse over time/use. www.myspace.com/bite_photography
