Z1P - Headphone Output not working
Hi,
After months of trying to work which camera to upgrade from my pd150 i went with a slightly second hand Z1p in extremely good condition. Took it out for its first shoot last night with a shotgun mic plugged into XLR input 1 filming a concert. I get there to find that im not getting any audio coming out of my headphone jack when i've got my sennheiser cans plugged in. I am definately getting audio levels coming though, however nothing is going to my cans. I then changed from the XLR input to the camera mic and got sound through the cans. I also played with audio settings but found none that were to do with my problem Am i missing something here or will the Z1 (or maybe just my Z1) not play out anything to my headphones when using external Mics? Thanks. |
Well after some more testing i figured out it was working, but the levels coming through the cans were just very low, a lot lower than my PD150 ever was. Time to try some new cans.

Hi, you can adjuste the headphone output level, in the camera setting
output level, 1vms or 2 vms try this |
Also, volume control for the headphones is with all of the VCR controls that are with the LCD display. Pump up the volume.
|
Yup, i tired both of those suggestions, and it still seems lower than my PD150 - i guess i'll just up the dB in the audio settings.
Thanks |
Try another set of headphones--I had a similar problem recently and swore something was wrong. It ended up being the headphones, which were a bit pricey, so I was upset.
If that doesn't work, try calling Sony's tech support--Z1 is pro, and they're excellent. heath |
