I have been using the vx2000 for about a year now and its superb,the settings i use are manual white balance, shutter priority- set at 1000th for on the ground and in aircraft filming, auto focus- on, for freefall or just as i'm climbing out i set the vx to sports mode-why?, because this is really good if the weather is a bit naff or its raining slightly, because in sports mode the vx doesn't focus for the first foot so if you get spots of rain on the lense, the vx does'nt see it and you get good results. Hope this has been of help. Dorz
