I have to shoot a 2 camera interview using a HVX for the 2 shot and a DVX for the individual shots. The HVX is going to be recording in DV on tape. Any recomendations on settings to get them to look the same, or as close as possible? Thanks

I have an HVX and sometimes need more than the 2 mic inputs it has. I was wondering if getting a 3 or 4 channel field mixer and running the output of that to one of the camera inputs would work until I can afford a field recorder to the job 100%. If so what mixer would you suggest? Should I get...

I have a bad habit of taking my camera off the tripod before I disconnect the Varizom zoom cotroller plug from the port on the side of the camera and now it doesn't work unless I hold the plug in a certain way.

Currently using Pinnacle Ultimate 14 since I don't need anything fancy for what I do. I am getting an HVX200A, will this software edit the HD from the camera. If not can anyone suggest something that will work but is not very complicated? Thanks

I have a DVX100A that is getting old and beat up but still works fine except for a yellowish color cast in the LCD. The EVF picture colors are correct. I was thinking of upgrading to a HVX200. I plan to only shoot SD for the near future, for the types of videos I do there would be no call for...

My LCD screen has a strange greenish yellow color cast. The eye piece viewer is fine and the recorded picture is fine. Any suggestions?
