Questions from a new owner
I just bought the HVX200 today! So far I like it a lot (what a monster it is!), but have some questions:
- the manual/auto audio control is confusing. Every camera I've owned in the past has a simple auto/manual setting for each audio channel. This one doesn't. It seems you can't have one channel in auto and another in manual. And it also seems that auto is a relative term; that adjusting the audio "wheel" affects the audio level even when in auto. - Is there a black stretch function? I don't see one. - Is the peaking function adjustable? - what detail level are you using? Just curious. That's it for now. I'm sure I'll have more questions as I continue to use the unit! |

Too funny... I was just writing a response, and was going to refer one of your questions to Barry. Went to check on something for a moment, and Barry had already responded. (This is why we love ya, man!)
One issue:... I thought the peaking was adjustable from 80 to 100%??? Am I remembering wrong?

ALC = Audio Limiter Control. Yes it's confusing, other cameras have used those same initials to mean Automatic Level Control, but that's not how the HVX (or DVX) use it. |

Another question: is the zoom/record remote input the same thing as LANC control?

If you search the archives on those two units, you'll find some user reports.
