After shooting for a couple years, I decided to look and see how many hours of operation I've logged on the HVX. I was under the assumption that I could find this under "Other Functions" in the menu, but after navigating there, I only found the following list:
____________
Remote
1394 Control
1394 CMD SEL
PC Mode
Rec Lamp
Access LED
Beep Sound
Clock set
(second page)
Time Zone
Power Save
User File______

Shouldn't it be below "User File" at the end? It doesn't feel great to log more hours of on time trying to find the total hours of on time. :huh:
 
Thats pretty neat I never noticed that the hours # count was in there. How accurate is it though? I noticed mine said 47 hours, and there is no way that i have used my hvx that many hours considering i've only used/rechared the batter 4 times sinces i've bought the camera.
 
Tom, I ecountered the same thing. I was like "WTF? I haven't shot that much?!"

It's my understanding that this is for "hours of operation" - which logs how long the camera has been turned on.
 
That seems like it would make more sense. I did leave my camera on once until the battery fully drained after shoots because I have been so used to using my GL2 on off switch which is reversed. However 47 hours still seems high, I guess time must really fly by when having fun.. Anyway thanks for letting my know about that little bit of info.
 
I did that too. Did a shoot, packed it into the pelican case and brought it home. A few hours later I took it out and was surpised how warm it was - it was still on!

Now I double check that I have turned it off before storing.
