Xl-h1a

Randy Larioz · September 10th, 2008, 11:24 PM

I was wondering what the ASA/ISO of the XL-H1A is. I know a lot of the other HDV cameras are at 320 but I was curious if this was different. Of course this is me just being lazy asking instead of doing the white, grey , black card white balance test to find out.
Thanks

We've rated ours at somewhere between 250-320. Watch your underexposure. The camera has a high noise floor. However, it blooms highlights very nicely (probably one of the nicest of the breed in how it handles overexposure) so don't be afraid to keep your exposure a stop higher.
