Re: DV Info - Mobile site

Any update on a mobile friendly version of the site, or at least the forums? It's laborious to zoom in and out to read and navigate through many threads in a session even on my fairly large 4.3"...

Re: Will the Audio-Technica AT875 Mic fit in the Ex-1 mic mount?

Philip:

Thanks for the feedback. Do you specifically use it within the built-in mic holder on the top right side of the Ex-1R? Or are you mounting it inside of a shock mount on the top shoe? The...

Will the Audio-Technica AT875 Mic fit in the Ex-1 mic mount?

Anyone else use the Audio-Technica AT875 with the EX-1 or EX-1R? I decided I didn't specifically need a stereo mic on my camera but just a very short mono shotgun to mount on my EX-1 for run & gun...

Re: Separating files shot on one SD Card for two clients?

Thanks, Dave. That was good advice. I am going to start using the Clip Browser for copying and managing all my XDCam EX video files from now on. I backed up the original folders and files as they...

Re: Separating files shot on one SD Card for two clients?

Separating files shot on one SD Card for two clients?

I started using a Sony EX-1 recently and I really love the video quality compared to my old Sony FX-1 HDV camera. I am still getting accustomed to the workflow however. I shoot to SDHC cards in a...

Re: Possible to output XDCam EX video to tape?

Vincent, I do have a Blu-Ray burner and that is what I usually use to ship raw and/or edited video files to clients. Unfortunately one client does not have nor do they want to get a Blu-Ray drive...

Re: Possible to output XDCam EX video to tape?

Thanks for the answers guys. So it is indeed possible to output to a tape in some kind of format resembling HDV that the editing system can manage to output to a mini-DV or a DVCam tape. But it's...

Possible to output XDCam EX video to tape?

Re: Correct settings for built in stereo mic- line, mic or 48v?

So with a mono mic and the proper settings on the EX-1 you record that one mono channel of audio simultaneously to both of the audio chanels, to get a pseudo-stereo result? If you make the two levels...

Re: Any reason to use XDCam EX Clip Browser if I shoot on SD cards only?

Thanks for clarifying. Since I purchased the camera with the Sony SD Card adapter and a 16Gb card (plus added two more new ones), that's what I will be using. As far as media, 54 minutes is...

Re: Any reason to use XDCam EX Clip Browser if I shoot on SD cards only?

I always copy the entire BP4V folder as it is to my hard drive. I intend to start doing it with the Clip Browser from now on. I still have all three SD cards I shot on so far intact so I can copy...

Re: Correct settings for built in stereo mic- line, mic or 48v?

Keith, thanks for confirming that about the EX-1 internal mic. I know the audio with the internal mic will not be as loud or as good, but I was trying to get it as good as possible until I purchase a...

Re: Any reason to use XDCam EX Clip Browser if I shoot on SD cards only?

Dave, luckilly I use Premiere Pro 5 when I do my own editing, so I do not have to convert anything, just import the mp4s. The BP4V folder and the extra small reference files in there are nothing but...

Re: Any reason to use XDCam EX Clip Browser if I shoot on SD cards only?

Thanks Dave. I'll install Clp Broswer later and start using it. As a new Ex-1 user, everyone's quick answers to my questions have been really helpful.

Re: Any reason to use XDCam EX Clip Browser if I shoot on SD cards only?

Bruce, thanks for replying. I probably should just install the XDCam EX Clip Browser on my new pc and try it out. I had thought that it might specifically only work with transferring files off of...

Re: Correct settings for built in stereo mic- line, mic or 48v?

Keith, on my EX-1 when I browse to MENU ---> AUDIO ---> AUDIO INPUT I do not see INT MIC LEVEL option. I only see the folllowing:

Re: Correct settings for built in stereo mic- line, mic or 48v?

Correct settings for built in stereo mic- line, mic or 48v?

Sorry for such a basic question, but I took a couple of test shots using the built in stereo mic with the used EX-1 I just acquired and the audio seems really low so far. I have the switches near...

Re: Small stereo XLR on-camera mic for EX-1?

Re: Small stereo XLR on-camera mic for EX-1?

Re: Small stereo XLR on-camera mic for EX-1?

Small stereo XLR on-camera mic for EX-1?
