Searched but couldn't find it.

Does anyone have info on the XLH1 comparable ASA rating at 0 gain for:

- Standard 20X lens

- 6X lens

Thank you in advance for the help.

Info needed for using an incident light meter.

Found what appears to be reliable info over on the dvinfo forum for the XHG1/A1 that gives that camera an ASA rating of 320.

I am wondering if this ASA rating might also apply to the XLH1 as they share the same sensor and CCD's ?

But then there are the lens differences between the 2 models.

It certainly does. We rated the feature we shot with the H1 at 320 and got reliable results. Maybe rate it a little lower if you want to really avoid the noise floor.

I've always used 320 ISO and get good results.
