OT: HDV and video gain "noise"
by David Smith on May 12, 2008 at 1:44:23 am

[Ryan Mast] "never ever let the camera go into gain -- the extra noise wreaks havoc with the HDV codec."

I can't speak to that camera (thus the OT heading above) but I would respectfully disagree with the statement quoted above. I've been shooting with a Z1 for several years and am amazed at how well the images from that camera take gain, even at 9 or even 12db, and not introduce much noise at all. At 3 or 6db gain it's clean as can be. I don't doubt you're seeing the noise you report out of the A1, but I'd place the cause with the camera, not the HDV codec.

Regards,
David
