Feed back on first dslr edit

[Shabangarang]

Hey NS I just finished my first summer edit with my new camera. I am currently using a t3i and still trying to learn the artsy touch, maybe some of you guys could give me some feedback on this edit and how to make it better alright thanks guys! /images/flash_video_placeholder.png

The beginning shots of fireworks were out of focus, and pretty grainy. I really liked the creativity of the longboarding shots. The shots using the slider were excellent. All in all I would say really check your focus on every shot. For example, the shot of the chairlift was not in focus. Seems like you've had a pretty eventful summer! keep it up.

rule of thumb - never zoom using a lens without constant aperture. hence the flickering

To help with the focusing issue you can use the digital zoom on your camera to look really close up to what you want in focus and then focus it. Then zoom out with the digital zoom and your shot should be perfectly focused for the most part.

also really shouldn't be zooming with dslr lenses while you're recording period

You can use the digital zoom which works fairly well but you have to shot in 1080p
