All these videos starting to bring me back to the past when I was 12 years old. :-D
Even though I haven't watch them back then. :-o

[@spencerhughes2255]

Thanks! It does focus well at night. I payed over $2300 with tax..

[@RobtJude]

Those things hurt when they hit you

[@trainsplanesmore]

I love the night shots! Super cool. How high can you crank the ISO on that Canon?

[@trainwatcher17]

Awesome Video! Nice horn on 188. I think the camera is great! How much is it and does it have good night focus?

Hi
Excellent video! That image adjustments you have used in this test?
Regards

Note to myself: Do not stay at a motel built next to a railroad track right where the warning horn will be sounded!
Fail for La Quinta Irvine!

[@AmtrakCal462]

Solidness! Camera looks dope! I like the 182 shot! Cool angle you chose!

[@freeamericausa1]

Too bad you had to set up with traffic popping in, and out so much. Nice shots.

Thanks for a very nice video, I've also got the XA20, its a great camcorder.
I am led to believe that You Tube doesn't actually play back the uploads in true 1080p HD so those on here who have commented on the great picture quality aren't really seeing the video in its true quality.
I know what this camera is capable of and would recommend it, especially for the person who can't afford a truly professional camera with the resultant price that goes with it.

[@AwesomeDesertTrains]

Yeah same with my HDR/CX-240/L at 60p

[@citxsd70m-2]

4:20 nice meetup in the distance.

[@kooldoog8019]

The quality is awsome the best I've seen

[@kooldoog8019]

Cool Dood

Was the first one a K5L or a hybrid K5LA?

[@therookie9276]
