:) Rating the DVX100A ISO? Can anyone tell me what ISO/ASA the DVX is rated at, I want to use my light meter to for my light setups, I'm assuming its rated at around 320ISO.

Further does anyone know the exact equations for the ND filters, how many stops does the 1/8ND bring the camera down, as well as the 1/64ND?

Lastly I'm shooting in the midday sun, anyone got some tips on how to handle the DVX in this light condition?
 
640 ISO in progressive, 1280 in interlaced, using NORM gamma.

1/8 = 3 stops, 1/64 = 6 stops. But it doesn't really end up working that way, for a number of reasons. So use a light meter only as the roughest of guides, it's really not the right tool to use to judge exposure on a video camera. With a video camera you want to be using a waveform monitor or, at the very least, zebras.
