MY HVX-200 Keeps automatically powering off! why?

[Keston Karter]

Can anyone help me and tell me what's going on with my camera. My HVX keeps powering off automatically. Itll be on for about 10 minutes without a problem and it'll just abruptly power off. The battery is fully charge and It even does it when i connect the power supply. The camera has never been dropped or handled violently. I actually barely use it.

 

I also have the RedRockM2, and Micro X connected to it.

 

Anyone know whats going on?

If it's not while you're recording it could be a power save mode? if it's happening when it's recording... then I'm flummoxed.

oohhhhh ok.. thanks a bunch.. since i have the best cinematographer on this site's attention... lol... i am looking for the best mode to shoot in. I want the mode that looks the most "movie like". would you recommend shooting 720p 24pn? or 1080I 24pn?

[Adrian Sierkowski]

720, but only because I feel it's less uprezzing on the camera. That's just my opinion, of course.
