Ben Pendlebury: (video on top) “I’ve just finished another video that may be of interest to your readers.  It’s all about filming family movies on Micro Four Thirds cameras.  A lot of people use cameras in their profession or as part of their hobby, but don’t consider using them for filming family events, such as birthdays, Christmas, holidays or even just regular day-to-day life.  I love capturing these special moments and creating short videos that you can treasure for years to come!  In the video I wanted to share some tips and tricks I’ve learned for how to use the cameras to the best of their ability for this particular task.  Also, I wanted to show how great results can be achieved regardless of whether you have entry level gear, or the top of the line models.  As with my previous videos, I’ve tried to include lots of sample footage to show what can be achieved, even with older cameras such as a Panasonic G6 with kit lens.  I thought it might be quite relevant at the moment with Christmas just around the corner!”
