Is that from a Xacti? Has it had any filters applied or
post-processing, e.g. been graded? They're excellent cameras for the price.
Have you manually white-balanced the camera? There's a shot where the
sky's chrominance changes suddenly as you tack onto port and I'm
wondering if there's some sort of automatic thing going awry.
Depth-of-field is huge, although you're losing some of the background
(maybe camera optics).
Really good effort - you're going to have fun trying to get that perfect
shot with sailor, boat, water and surroundings in, but it's worth the
effort.
Will be nice to see a finalised clip from the rushes you're making
-what sort of system are you using for editing?
