Here are some of the things I learned while making this video:
- just because you think an area of the frame is in focus, that doesn't mean that it is!
![Disagree :no:](./images/smilies/disagree.gif)
- a 70-200mm zoom lens is useable for video but you must use a monopod/tripod! I presumed that having IS in the lens and stabilization in post would save the footage. I was wrong for most of those clips. A monopod would have been the ticket!
- the Pilotfly H1+ stabilizer was more useful than I anticipated. Using it to capture "walking shots" was great. I will try to incorporate it into more videos moving forward.
And I LOVE the music from Kevin MacLeod on this video. It is called "The Show Must Be Go" and it is comical.
We had a lot of fun at the zoo and I hope the video captures some of that. Feedback appreciated!
