Hello everyone!

I got my HV10 yesterday. I chose it over Sony and Panasonic, mainly thanks to this forum! :)

The camera is otherwise perfect(!) except the low battery life and poor low light performance... oh well, you can't have everything in a such small package... ;)

So far I have discovered that the only way to disable the gain at the low light situation, is by choosing a SPOTLIGHT or SUNSET preset. However, with these setups, you can't use a manual white balance. So is there any way to reduce the gain in P -mode, where the white balance setting is enabled?

I prefer dark but high quality picture over a grainy picture with vertical stripes... :/

Thanks!

Off topic - but have you bought a PAL version of the camera (Finland) ??

I am still waiting for a PAL version to hit the UK... :(

Lee, yes, I have a PAL version. I ordered it four weeks ago and this unit was in the first batch they delivered to Finland...
