I know they are 2 completely different camcorders but I was really interested in having some feedbacks about how those 2 camcorders compares in low light conditions. I have heard amazing things about the low light capabilities of the HV30.

Thanks!

Hi Stefano,

I'm not familiar with the HPX170, but the HV30 has only decent low-light sensitivity, and only when shot at 24p. The rating for the 30 is 16 lux at 60i, but drops to 6 lux at 24p
