Re: Sony Vegas 10.1 Blotchy Video after rendering.

Hi;

Good to hear the audio has manual gain. AGC is good for most stuff, but for live music you need manual. Does your cam have a mic input? If it does, I recommend the Rode Stereo VideoMic. For the price has unbeatable quality.

My current video project is a 20-minute time-lapse + other epic scenes of El Paso. I'm trying to really, really focus on proper camera work and editing. Trying to break out of my home-movie rut.

Regarding the NX70 - it is not really all that special. Any cam under about $10K will have a lot of flaws. But, as my friend Drew says, "the best camera is the one that gets the shot." I'm trying to treat the little prosumer NX70 as a "proper" camera, being careful with tripod work, framing, focus, WB, even doing some stuff on improvised tracks. Still have months to go on just the shooting, not counting the editing.
