View Full Version : Sony announces HXR-NX3 professional HD camcorder Stephen Gradin November 15th, 2014, 09:19 AM Robert, I have had 2 of these cameras since February. Although I do not use this feature yet, I have tested it and from my experience the MP4 file and the HD file both get recorded on the same card, in different folders. No issues, works great. Stephen Gradin November 15th, 2014, 09:40 AM Is anyone having issues with steadyshot on this camera? I tried using it on long shots from a tripod but once the camera settles down, it automatically shuts off. On handheld shots it works better, but again, if you really hold the camera steady (on a wider shot usually) it shuts off. I literally have to shake the camera on a long shot to get the steadyshot to come back on. The active mode is fantastic, especially on long shots, just wish it would stay on until I shut it off (I use a soft button on side of camera to change from off to standard to active, works great). I updated both of my NX3 cameras to newest 1.03 firmware but that did not fix, what I consider, a problem with this camera.

Damn, that's true. I was thinking AVCHD Simul setting. Yes what Stephen said, which surprised me at first. Tony Maceo November 16th, 2014, 01:00 AM Is anyone having issues with steadyshot on this camera? I haven't noticed that. I have two that pull double duty handheld and tripod. I have to go into settings to turn off Ss when on tripod. Michael C. Ray November 17th, 2014, 09:59 AM Any ideas on the slider used in this production?

That's Den Lennie, probably best to ask him. fstopacademy.com Robert Rinkewich November 20th, 2014, 09:07 AM That's what was happening when I tried it at a local shop. So if you are recording an mp4, you can have HD on the same card, but nothing will get recorded in the second slot? So you cant have a backup on a different card at the same time. Damn, that's true. I was thinking AVCHD Simul setting. Yes what Stephen said, which surprised me at first. |
