Paddle steamer Elizabethan

I got my new Canon 650D yesterday and I tried my hand at some videos. We occasionally see the Elizabethan, a restaurant boat sail past our house and I took the opportunity to make a short video of it.

It is operated by Thames Luxury charters and takes tourists to the Thames Barrier every few weeks.

This was my first published video recorded on my Canon 650D DSLR and I am still practising. I used my Canon EOS EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM lens for this. I found that it was reasonably easy to capture the video, even at the full 300mm zoom. However, the camera does seem to hunt for focus sometimes.
