Great Forum---Now my question about HG10 or Sony SR11
This forum is great. There is a very valuable knowledge base here.
Please forgive my ignorance. I have been waiting for the SR11 reviews (low light performance in particular) to come out to see how well it will do. The camera has everything else I want so it's a simple choice for me. But the low light noise could be a deal breaker. I really don't think it will come close to the HG10 low light performance based on the real numbers; however, Sony has claimed the software is more advanced to help reduce the signal to noise ratio ot the 3 new SR models. Well I guess I'll have to wait some more. I can get the SR11 for $899 at a local seller when it comes in. I can get the hg10 for $740 now I dont fully understand the workaround for the HG10 to Vegas Movie Studio Platinium8 .MTS to .M2TS But I really like the low light performance and would be willing to learn if the sony SR11 low light is a deal breaker. How would I go about getting the HG10 to work with Vegas Paltinum if I even can. |
I own an HV20 and am trying a Sony SR12. I don't know about the HG10's low light, but I'll assume it's similar to the HV20. I can tell you from my experimenting with both the SR12 & HV20 that the SR12 is at least as good as the HV20. Sony's claims are 100% on the mark, this cam is pretty good in low light!

And if so, that just got me really excited.... I really like the manual focus selection for the front wheel of the new SR line |

Then there is the issue of the 2GB split discussed in another thread, which is only an issue if you shoot long takes. I just find I don't like Vegas Platinum's downconversion to SD video, so I edit in HD, output Lagarith or MPEG2 (depending on how I feel), and use Procoder to downconvert to SD. |
I have a question about the little button on the lens threads. What does that do and will I be able to attach a cokin filter system to it without affecting camera functions.
|
The little button tells the camera if a lens (or filter) is attached, and disables the on cam flash, since it would be blocked by most lenses.
