HPX250: Scene file system on the HPX250

[GrahamH]

@tdtinker - as Barry says, just select INIT

Awesome
Sorry for such a late reply to your very quick response
ahah so its the model number i changed the from 59.94 Hz to 50 thinkin that it would be an NTSC _ PAL issue
but this makes even more sense
trying to change now

Woo Hoo worked first time you are a legend love ya work
Now do you know where i can find the original in camera scene files as i regrettably changed mine to suit a couple shoots i was doing
and in a bit of a fluster over it all i forgot to save them

One more issue while im here
does anybody know or has anybody have this issue (pic attached)
the first three (rough sequence) was a dramatic change from blue bars to a complete wash and i had a fisheye on

second time was 2 days after no fisheye and kind of looks like an acid induced trip
both times i turned off and back on and it solved the problem but im guessing that it will re occur
Any ideas?
im going to enquire about warranty but cant afford to not have a camera

thanks i just seen that

 

[tdtinker]

You can initialize the scene files from the camera's menus.

We tried that it didn't work. I think I might have saved over the factory settings.

 

[GrahamH]

Did you use INIT (rather than LOAD)?

 

[tdtinker]

Did you use INIT (rather than LOAD)?

Yes we did. but nothing changes.

 

[tdtinker]

So...... does anyone have the factory setting scene files? I would really like to set both of our camera back. Thank you

 

[tdtinker]

Okay it's official, I'm a idiot. Just figured it out, you have to INIT each scene file.

 

[THoff]

Yeah, you can't overwrite the defaults used by the INIT, so you can always get them back.

Hey again

I was away from home, but finally got some time to make it right.

Barry, you were right, I downloaded the HPX250 files, changed the name and frequency, and works like a charm.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers

I got the "original" scene files saved in another .txt and attached it, if someone still needs it... just change name & frequency to your regional settings (mine is HPX250EJ, 50Hz).

Interestingly enough, Panasonic has put a scene files resource manual together that explains step by step how all of the various options work. They did a nice job. The thing that threw me for a loop was the way they talked about the scene files in the original manual. Once I realized that you could have a 4 sets of six scene settings, it became much easier. Barry's help was great as well.

Panasonic has actually put up a nice collection of other documents as well. This is the link: https://eww.pass.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/support/content/guide/EN/top.html
