Transferring Scene Files

[Marco Rodriguez]

Trying to transfer Scene files from an HVX200 to an HPX500P using an SD card. Wondering if this was even possible. Im saving, at least I think so, the scene files on the HVX, but when I try to read the card on the HPX it says no file. Wondering if I'm not seeing something or this can't be done. Thanks a lot

Not possible. Each camera will only read scene files generated by one of the same type of camera.

You could probably copy & paste lines from the HVX200's scene file to an HPX500 scene file in a text editor, but that might be more work than just going in and manually configuring them to match in the menus. Even then you have to watch out because the settings aren't necessarily identical; for example the HPX500 master pedestal goes -99 to +99 or so, whereas the HVX goes -15 to +15.
