Our new camera - a Fujifilm HS50EXR - asked for a day of testing in the forests of Khao Yai national park.
The gibbons posed well for us (even though the sky was too bright), just like the male Great Hornbill that came to feed the female nesting inside the tree.
Our computer does not seem to be ready for editing full HD 59.94fps footage, or at least it is extremely slow in doing so. We decided to reduce the output to 1280x720, lower the bitrate and keep it short. That meant some of the other animals we saw have to wait till another video compilation...
In the final processing it screwed up the ending a bit, but well, we leave it like that for now.
The videos coming from the Fuji HS50EXR are not bad. The pictures are OK if light is good and shot at lower ISOs, but even then zooming in 100% on the picture will look soft, grainy, and sometimes with not so pretty artifacts. However, for the purpose of internet and printing small size it is fine. For better image quality we have a decent DSLR (however, not with a 1000mm lens...:( ).
One big pro of this Fujifilm HS50EXR is having a 1000mm focal length (equivalent to 35mm format cameras) in a relatively small and light-weight package with a good stabilizer that allows you to shoot handheld at this crazy focal length. A great feature for wildlife photography. And the close focussing distance at the wider angles, together with the large depth of field inherent to a small-sensor camera like this, allows for interesting close ups, blowing up tiny creatures like monsters in their environment.
So all-in-all we're happy with the purchase ;).
BTW if you are interested in seeing this wildlife in Thailand, have a look at our tours in Khao Yai:
