Chris, Given your experience with the FX1, how would you expect the audio on the new HC1 to compare.
Thanks D Kane

I don't have that much experience with the FX1, but I'm not expecting the audio recording spec on the HC1 to be any different from what Sony is already using on its other HDV camcorders.

As for the on-board mic... well... the camcorder is the single worst place to put a microphone. Let's just be happy that there's a pro version with built-in XLR inputs for attaching external mics.

It seems the camera is using so much of same technology as FX/Z1, it is probably using same audio circuitry but you never know.
