For all you HV20 owners out there, I have a problem (and I know Kent Bye has the same issue)
Camera Noise!! Check out all the camera noise in this video I made with the camera: http://vimeo.com/475731 Lots of high-pitched noise obviously this is because the internal mic is so close to the tape mechanism. And obviously, when the room is quiet the auto-gain ettenuator makes that noise even louder. I have used lapel mics to get rid of the noise and that works great, but I want a solution for when I am just filming other people and things. I thought about getting a shotgun mic but I am not sure if it would help as much as I want it to. so I am asking these questions: - does your HV20 camera make this much noise? - what do you do to stop the camera noise? - what kind of shotgun works well with the camera? -- Josh Leo www.JoshLeo.com www.ultrakawaii.com www.WanderingWestMichigan.com www.SlowLorisMedia.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
