PDF Scene file settings for HMC151 questions

[Aje]

Hi
Downloaded the PDF "Proffesionell Scene File Settings for AG-HMC 150 series"
I´m trying to really get into this huge issue and have some qustions

Gamma question
On page 10 their is a good explanation of Camera gammacurves and TV gammacurves and that they are opposite to each other.
The human eye like linear gamma and therefore you should aim for a counterbalance
So far so good.
But they refer to a CRT TV - seems a little old fashion to me.
Is the gamma curve for a CRT TV equal to a LCD or Plasma TV?
Which most of my clients have!

Gamma SD NORM question (page 8)
Recomend as best setting for end product SD (mpeg2 DVD) - true?

Matrix NORM2 question (Page 18)
Recomended for best setting PAL - true?

Would be glad if any 151 PAL user could tell me their basic scene file settings.
Regards
Aje

I think it was from a Panasonic site but if you give me your
e-mail adress I can send you the PDF in a mail.

could someone please post the link for the rest of us?
the panasonic site is so difficult to find anything on!
thanks.

EDIT: ftp://ftp.panasonic.com/pub/Panasonic/Drivers/PBTS/manuals/AG-HMC150_brochure.pdf
think they're referring to page 5, which doesn't really explain anything.

:)That still leaves the rest of us out of the information loop!

Yes please paste the link so that we can also benefit. I am very keen on getting the settings. On a separate note, can anyone recommend replacement batteries that can work with the 151 . Thanks
