So since I’ve been glued to my camera since my daughter’s birth, I’ve found one other thing that can be a little annoying. In the quietest of conditions, you can hear what seems to be the lens focusing constantly. Normal use, no problem…however using it around a baby it’s generally quiet and you can hear the tweeting of the motor running for it to stay in constant focus.
Now let me go back to one other thing…it’s comfortable! Being so small and light is of course a major plus but it’s only one part of it. The fact that is has the angled lens lets your hand sit comfortably without the annoying strain on your wrist. Those 3 factors – small, light and the comfortable position of the wrist – made filming during labor and the hours after tolerable. No doubt I wouldn’t be able to do it with any other camera without a tripod.
