HVX 200e - Gain Switch

[David Antony]

Hey Filmies..

Recently purchased a HVX 200e and although I dont like putting my gain past 0 where possible Ive noticed that flicking that little switch on the left hand side of my camera isnt actually changing the gain.:huh:

Im not sure if its because Im looking through the viewfinder that I cannot notice these difference or if I have something selected that's overiding manual gain selection.

Please dont tell me to read the manual in combination with a playground insult...:Drogar-Evil(DBG):.

I lost my manual in a freak paper accident, and such remarks with only open up my emotional papercuts.

I won't tell you to read the manual, I'll give you the link.

Now you have the manual and maybe your emotions will come back to normal.

Hahaha. Nice.


There is a setting in the menu where you can change each L-M-H position to a certain gain setting. You might want to see what those are set to.

I went into the menu, and set all my gains: H, M, L, to 0dB. That way WHEN I accidentally hit that switch no harm is done.

Read and use the manual - two meanings.
