Got an HMC 150 in front of me for the first time. Sorry for the dumb question, but I don't have a manual, and I cant find PH mode?

Under recording format, I get options for:
HA 1080/60i
HG 1080/60i
HE 1080/60i

No more. How do I shoot 720P??
 
if the card is not fast enough you cant record to the fastest "PH" format
I have some old SD cards and i can only do the first 2...
 
Thanks. That's what I was starting to figure. It's just a quick shoot... I'll stick with HA mode for now.
 
You could read what type of card it is inside the camera... it'll say class 4 or class 6... something to that extent, HA is still very good quality!
 
It's all good... just finished the shoot. I'll post here in a couple of weeks. I used steadicam, dolly, and some other goodies, but just ended up shooting in HA 1080.

cheers
 
i thought the same thing when i picked it up for the first time... but i had to push up on the format page to get to the rest of the formats.

Oh. My. God.

Well... you were right. I just woke up, checked it, and sure enough... all I had to do was push up.

REALLY wish I would've seen that yesterday. I looked at the footage last night, and it all looks good, but it's interlaced AND I used a steadicam with fast moving shots. Fast moving shots + interlaced footage = poopy footage.

Looks like I'll be spending some time in AE to make something fancy out of it...
