    DVX200 Autofocus Speed and Sensitivity

    Good to hear you had better results. Another tip....since the DVX200 is not great in low light, I almost always shoot in HIGH SENS mode to gain an additional f-stop. I very rarely need to add any gain. Yes......I use a 7" external monitor quite a bit to help with assessing focus and to help...

    Copy to USB Stick?

    On occasion I have a client that wants footage right from the camera delivered ASAP. This is a great use of the DVX200's USB capability and I have used external hard drives to do this. I tried a few USB sticks and the camera rejects all of them as soon as I plug them in. I've tried USB2, USB3...

    Advice on AF customization?

    I've been shooting with the DVX200 for over 2 years, primarily corporate. I don't use the AF very often, because the content doesn't require it. Last night I worked an ice show for a friend. He had me shooting full-skater shots (technically a "long shot"). The camera was set for...

    USB Stick

    Has anyone been able to copy video from the DVX200 directly to a USB thumb drive? I keep getting: "This external media cannot be used. Disconnect the USB cable from this unit." I've tried several thumb drives from 1Gb to 32Gb. My external hard drives work just fine.

    Skin tones.

    I was on a DVX200 Facebook page where some folks were having issues getting the DVX200 stock scene files to render good skin tones. This has been posted before, but I find the scene file created in this video to be great at skin tones. It has become my default scene file...

    Video from skiing shoot.

    I got permission from my client to use any of the footage I shot in a promo. They'll be releasing a separate bio piece in a month or so. The camera performed very well! I shot from 7:30am to 4pm. The only camera related issue was the inability to see the LCD in the super bright sun and...

    Toughest DVX200 Gig Yet.

    I'm heading to Winter Park, CO tomorrow to prep for an all day shoot on the 5th of a paraplegic skier in a "sit ski". It will be all types of shots, primarily outdoors in snow. I have a Lowe backpack that the camera fits in, and most of the shots will be handheld with a Fig Rig. The...

    Some wildlife footage.

    Shot this today all with the DVX200. All of it was shot 1080P 100M 59.97 Default Scene File #1. Most of the sheep scenes also use iZoom maxed out. I did minor color correction, no other adjustments.

    Noise in UHD?

    I'm seeing more noise in some UHD footage that I expect. 1) Shot in UHD 29.97 100M 2) Dropped into a 720P timeline (Premiere) with scale at 100% (so it's pushed in) and rendered in 720P. 3) F/W 1.81 4) Normal mode (not HIGH SENS) 5) 0Db gain 6) Iris WIDE 7) Scene file 4 "Still like" with NR at...

    Advice for "pan/zoom in post" process.

    I have a dance studio client that can't afford a true two camera shoot. We came to a compromise where I will: 1) Shoot the show with a fixed wide shot in UHD. 2) Quickly deliver them an SD version online (Vimeo). 3) They will direct via timecode, where I should zoom-in and follow a performer...

    UHD Outdoor Footage

    Put this together "just for fun". All the footage was shot UHD, 59.94, 150M. Audio was all done with the internal mics, auto level. To be sure I could be ready to shoot quickly, I carried the camera in my hand, powered on, full wide, manual focus at infinity, as I walked. Not all the...

    Using HIGH SENS?

    I shoot a fair amount of dance performances with low light. I've been using HIGH SENS mode as a default in these situations, adding 6dB of gain when necessary. More often than not, I'm forced to shoot with the iris open at 1/60th. How are others using HIGH SENS, if at all?
