Pxw-x70 ev

Can exposure value be shown on the sony pxw x70? If so, could you please let me know how to get it to show up? Thanks, Ray
 
Ray, what do you mean by "exposure value"? Do you mean the "EV" value when AE Shift is being used? For example, "-2.0EV".
If so, yes it can be displayed in the viewfinder. In fact, it is turned on by default and you can't turn it off unless you entirely clear the viewfinder of all displays. So if you're not seeing it, then you may not be using AE Shift correctly or you are talking about something else entirely different.
 
Is it just me or does anybody else think it is strange when someone asks for help and then disappears off into the woods never to be heard from again?
 
Hopefully, he got a last minute call and is now in Nambia shooting a feature on lithium mining. Or something. But yeah, other than that...what you said. :thumbsup:
 
Amazing isn't it. I help others in an editing forum and most of the times not even a thank you....just a disappearing act.
Think I'm going to post the same as Doug in the future.
 
For what it's worth, the OP hasn't logged in (at least according to his or her 'last activity') since their post in this thread.

Probably hasn't seen any of this...or does not feel like following-up (you can still read without logging in).
 
What's your point? What difference does it make if he asked a question and never bothered to come back to see it, or if he read the answer but never bothered to acknowledge it.
 
lol...just pointing it out since you actually took the time to follow up with a nonsensical post on why he or she didn't answer you like it really matters knowing very well how forums work after all these years.
 
If they didn't see it, they didn't see it, and we don't need to have everyone jump down their throat like they owe you and anyone else something.

You have a privilege of helping others on here and you don't do it to acknowledge your great presence or to hear, 'thank you'.
 
You're wrong. There is such as thing a simple etiquette. I thank someone for holding a door open for me but I know that's not why they did it.
 
I'm just approaching it philosophically rather than like a simpleton.

Although I don't agree with you, I don't think you're wrong in the sense that how can I tell you that your opinion is wrong in a discussion unrelated to facts? What gives me the right to do that and how am I correct?

You're telling me I'm wrong like you actually have the final say in humanity.

Nevertheless - if it needs to be reiterated - being your age and having your experience, I don't know how you can think that way.

A person who has 5 posts in 10 years - which immediately tells you what kind of forum user he or she is (at least on this forum) - didn't acknowledge your help and you complain about it.

Some people - for years - have written essays on here to help others, and barely ever receive helpful posts or acknowledgements and don't say anything.

That's all I got; no more from me.

Two wrongs don't make a right.
And I find it ironic that you took the time to post just to tell me I am wrong for telling someone else they are wrong. Well, at least I was wrong after I did something to help someone else. You just jumped into a thread and made no positive contribution to the thread at all. Now that is wrong no matter how you look at it.
 
Doug, I never said you're wrong. I expressed my opinion towards your actions.

All I did was mention that the OP's last activity was at the same time he/she made that post to hopefully provide another reason why he/she didn't answer, and you jumped down my throat.

It's a contribution that I hoped would enlighten others and maybe at the same time teach them about viewing someone's profile and seeing their 'last activity' before making an assumption.

You're being super defensive right now - and I apologize for even bringing it up as an intelligent conversation is just not possible at this time.
