View camera settings in FCP at DVinfo.net

Is there anyway to see the camera settings in FCP? Gain, shutter, iris, etc.

Thought there was a way to do this, but can't find it in FCP or through search.

I have something shot with a EX1 that I wanted to look at the settings of the camera when it was recorded. Footage was imported the footage through Log & Transfer.

Nope.

I think you can view acquisition data in EX Clip Browser or some other software, if you still have the original media and not just the logged and transfered clips - details in a thread here:

Short answer is no. Long answer is that this information is not recorded in the video file nor is it usually recorded in the metadata that's attached to it.

Actually for many formats it is recorded in the video file. DVMP Pro will display it for AVCHD, HDV, DV and Sony HDD/DVD formats, but it is a standalone program and only available for windows.
