Hi guys.

Quick question.

How long does your 110 take to start up? (From switching on to seeing image on EVF)

Cheers
Mat

1-2 seconds? Its nearly instant.

Hey Hunter. Thats interesting...mine takes 5 secs although I'm sure when I first got it it was switching on more quickly.

Anyone any ideas on this ?

Oops. I was talking about the hd200. Maybe its different? I will count just to make sure next time.

Hey Mat
my 110 takes 5 seconds

I just checked the hd200, its less than 2 seconds for me.

Hi Joseph.

Ok thats sounds more like it then....I would be interesting to see if 5 secs is about the norm for the 100's. As I said I'm sure when I first got it a couple of weeks ago it was starting up faster....

Anyone else?

Hello Mat
to be honest with you i never thought about it 2 seconds 5 seconds
as long fires up and works that's all that counts to me
I use IDX BATTERY SYS.

My 111 is in SA at the moment, so I can't check; but it's certainly more like 5 secs than 2 - and I think actually more than 5. I remember being disappointed when I first got it about how long it takes to fire up, compared to my previous Sony broadcast camera.

That said, power consumption on the HD is so miserly compared to my old Sony, that I can afford to leave it switched on and in stand-by most of the time.
