Re: HAND HELD 24P
It does, in comparison to 60i, but not to 30P. The shutter speed affects the light in progressive modes, and because with the DVX you're most likely shooting at 1/50 in 24p, and 1/60 in 30p, you'll need LESS light in 24p.

24P requires about 3/4 of a stop more light than 60i does.

Avoid shooting Earthquake shots.

Re: HAND HELD 24P
Grab a five pound or ten pound weight (plate) from the sports shop and strap/tie/attach it underneath the DVX. Hold the plate as you take your shots. The weight will add the heftiness that will balalance your footage and remove much of the little herky-jerkys that a light camera like the DVX inherently has. Good luck.

Re: HAND HELD 24P
That's a great idea. I have a DVRIG XL which seems to work well. It's better than the house made version at Alan Gordon's. But getting it properly weighted with receivers, sungun & battery, headphones, and a wide angle adapter is a bit of a challenge.
Is it smart to keep the ois on in 24P?

Because it's an Optical Image Stabilisation, rather than a digital one, there's no quality loss when it's engaged.

Re: HAND HELD 24P
You'd not want to use it for it's motion characteristics - ie, if you're panning, it'll try to compensate for the pan, and end up wobbling your footage left and right.
But as far as quality goes there's no difference whatsoever.

That'd have likely been it!

Re: HAND HELD 24P
I just shot some concert footage this weekend. Shot handheld 24p with the OIS on. It turned out pretty well. I'd do it again.
