Fujifilm HS20 focusing issue while shooting videos

[saketb]

I was confirmed that I will buy a Fujifilm HS20EXR camera as its available in my country, but certain issues have backed my intentions...

After reading and seeing some videos on youtube regarding the focusing problem of the camera which on video shooting, I think that Fujifilm has to address this issue and come out with a relevent solution so that the camera becomes a great asset.

At one site, someone has recommended that switching off the Advanced Anti Blur in the set-up menu may work with the trick of focusing during video shooting to work.

As, I personally do not have the camera, I would like to request the forum members who are proud owners of their HS20 to check this setting and shoot some video and post comments, replies and sample videos.

Thanks in advance.

I found that when you zoom in and out fast yes it takes a second to get back in focus but when I zoom slowly it keeps in focus. I have the advance anti-blur mode turned off in the main menu. Granted I only shoot in the 640x480 mode.
