Filming post Haiti earthquake recovery with HMC150

[Mark Turner]

Hi - I bought an HMC 150 middle last year. Learned how to use it, then was a little lax until now.

I was living in Haiti before the earthquake, but on holiday when it happened. I was hired by the International Organization for Migration to do a range of communications work.

HMC 150 is proving a great tool. I went to a distribution the other day, and quickly edited it into something reasonably watchable... would be grateful for any tips.

One question - how can I set an auto switch off feature? I have had a couple of scary moments when leaving the camera on and draining the battery.

You can set the auto power save in the menu..

OTHER FUNCTIONS / POWER SAVE - ON


Nice job on the video!

HORRIBLE audio, I cannot even watch this clip due to the audio. Basically it's hard panned left and then you have distortion coming out of the right side, almost blew my monitors..... You need to fix that ASAP!

Audio not that bad here. Obviously the audio panned left for the girl talking and right for the middle man talking. Some distortion but certainly not horrible. I am running through a mixer.
