Panasonic AG-HPX170 Youtube HD Test

James Pence Videos

I've put up a 1 minute 11 second video on Youtube using the Panasonic AG-HPX170. I wanted to see how it would look on Youtube now that Youtube offers HD viewing. Click here to view the video and then click watch in HD and if your bored with nothing to do click the full screen button and see what it looks like on full screen. Youtube, you've come along way baby!
I shot the video in the 720PN mode in automatic with no manual controls and encoded it with Final Cut Studio 2 Compressor as follows:
