SONY HDR-FX1 Forums? Tips & Tricks? Tutorials?

[foochuck]

Howdy All,

I've been looking all over for a forum or website for tips on the Sony HDR-FX1 HDV Camcorder. Anyone out there know of a website or forums for this? Thought I'd check here because someone is always helping on this forum.

Thanks!

FOO

The Sony HDR-FX1 has been around a number of years now.

It's the consumer version lacking serious audio (but can be helped) vs. the ZU1 sold by the Broadcast Division that had the pro balanced mic inputs.

What is it that you want to know about the FX1?

I'm good with the pro-audio xlr converter. I'm just trying to learn the camera inside and out and was looking to talk to other people who own this model to share techinques and any other helpful info for different shooting conditions.

I found this one too. If you look at the posts though, most of them are old and barely any of them have replies. I'm looking for an ACTIVE community (like this one)

Sorry, my previous post had to do with this comment.

This was the first discussion site back when the FX1 was introduced. It was Sony's first HDV format camcorder.
