Stunningly high definition

[desmondekker]

thanks edmundo and barmby. a couple of "tips" if you interested in making your own.

i'm on a 500D body and EF100mm f2.8. i honestly think that the full HD video feature was a gimmick until i tried taking this video with the macro lens. the focusing ring is a lot smoother and more precise compared to the EF50mm f1.8.

remember to off the ambient lights and use the tripod. :)

oh...if you happen to be on a canon this is a good software to use. can add music, fading from scene to scene, adding pictures, texts to your video. and it's free free free! reason being it can process MOV file which WMM can't. saving in avi also preserved the quality

hmmm mine also very shy, always MIA. i cheated in the video by disturbing it so that it will flaunt it's beauty for the cam :)

[benjamin]

Ahh I see. Then how do you know if it has started eating? Mine always hiding. Got several other plecos of different kind in there.

that's a common paranoia. i'm sure it'll do fine. you can dig it out and check the belly if it's sunken. there's a saying a hiding pleco is a happy pleco :)

Agreed, especially for juv. If they stay in the open n not active, something must be wrong.

thats rather reassuring. for now, the sinking pellets that i left in at night have been eaten by morning. pray hard my L25 ate at least one. yeah paranoia, have to admit this L25 was bought on impulse. haha.
