Thanks. I liked the song so much I even started a Pandora station for it.

Thanks! You're definitely right that I enjoy doing it. In fairness, when I read the earlier comments, it sounded like they were comparing my video to professional work. Usually people compare it to other family videos...and I tend to fare pretty well. If they're comparing it to the works of...

Thanks! I think the problem with the HF G10 isn't the camera, it's the operator. I need to really sit down and go through the owner's manual.

The first week of June is usually Gay Days at WDW. I couldn't agree with you more, but that gets back to the problem of capturing spontaneous moments, and also enjoying my vacation with my family. I use mostly prime lenses with the DSLR, and there's no way to switch lenses without missing a...

Thanks! That's very kind. I came from the other direction. I'm a camcording Dad with no experience in photography!

I really didn't even plan the opening transitions of the sunglasses. I started to notice how I could lay them over each other as I was editing, and I couldn't resist. As for the song, I just desperately wanted something that wasn't Disney. When we do these family videos, I always use a song with...
