Audio level indicator on XA10
 
My newer XA10 does not show the audio levels when using the internal mic as my older XA10 does.

I've been through the menu repeatedly and cannot find a way to make this happen, any suggestions?

They are talking about external mic settings, Alan. I'm talking about internal. I'll dig out my manual after I wake up, must go to bed.

The XA10 shows the audio level when it is switched to M but not to Auto. This may be your problem.
Giving my XA10 a workout in the Canadian Rockies at present.

Christopher, thanks. I was in M mode, as I white balance, etc manually at all times, but I'll try switching to auto and then back to see if it will help "kick it" on or something. thanks again!

I see now Chris, go to menu, AUDIO, and you can choose auto or manual gain, and also whether to have indicator on even during auto. I guess I set it up on my first cam and forgot how I did it.
