Hi Tim,

Either one of your bulbs is burnt, it's defective, or you have the wrong battery. If it's brand new, it's probably the battery. Note the second line:

Sounds reasonable.



Do you have other suggestions other than the AKG? Or if I wanted to research it on my own, is there a particular type of mic that one uses in loud environments?

Thanks...

Okay. How do I avoid this? Is the trim setting on the camera what I change to fix it? Right now it's at -6db. Or does this setting happen too late in the chain?
