You need to play with the controls to learn them or check the detailed manual on the CD that came with your camera or online at the below link. You can turn up the sound. The sound recording I get with my videos is surprisingly good & in no way too low. Manual to learn how to change settings is here: http://ftp.casio.co.jp/pub/world_manual/qv/en/EXZ1050_DI_e.pdf

I have no idea why the video is bad, this item I have and the video and pictures when taken are clear, did you update your software? Adjusting the Logitech Pro 9000 for video is case sensitive. Perhaps un-install the software and re install and see what happens, sorry to hear that you are having problems with your device. Thanks TW

I could not get this thing to owrk - I brought an additional SD video card - still does not work right - I used the memory in the camera - and yes - it works well - with that - but the memory feels up really fast - so - its a bust for me - I was thinking about returning it - but - I knew they would kill me - so I decided to keep it. Honestly I dont even use it - its in th closet collecting dust. hope this helps.

i hear this "beeping" as i describe it, as well, and have found others on youtube that experience this as well with this camera, it is quite annoying, although its not nearly as loud as you make it seem.. most people dont notice it even, but once you do it is quite annoying... i wondered if i got a defective unit but after finding many others that also have this it seems to be just how the camera is , i still have 20 some days to return it and i probably will because of this, oh well.

Whatever it is, it isn't just static - I'll be returning my unit for another one after I dig the boxes out of the trash. If the second one isn't better, I'll move on to another video camcorder entirely. If it didn't have this problem and the sound volume being too low, it'd be great. I could kick myself for not looking at enough reviews before buying!

Anthony: I used to have a JVC Everio, the first model out some years back. I loved the size of the thing, and it took great still pics. The only thing I didn't like was the .MOD file extensions for the videos. It was, quite frankly, a pain in the butt trying to deal with the vids. I ended up selling it. I don't know if they corrected that .MOD nonsense, but somehow I don't believe so. Go with the SONY (my opinion). Congrats on the baby :-) Mike

It just doesnt seem like any of my pictures are focused well and that includes ones taken on a tripod with IS turned off of course. I keep reading and trying everything to no avail. I may contact Olympus and see if something is wrong with the camera. I entered a question about my problems in a forum and the responses were so cruel that I wont ever go back to that forum. There is a review that says the E520 pics can be soft... does that mean out of focus too?

I just got mine in the mail today and tried a few small videos around the house and am having video quality issues as well. I would say I'm not even getting 480i quality. The image is incredibly speckly (non-static blotches moving around in the darks). Looks the same whether I play it on my HDTV or on my computer (plenty fast for HD video). What am I doing wrong? Tried wiping the lens with a lens cloth...no effect. Batteries weren't charged yet, but since it's digital, not sure that should make a difference.Also, as a side note, do the people who are getting good quality use the digital zoom at all, or does it degrade your resolution by half?

Dear customer,this is greeting from Loftek. If you want to use the audio,i suggest you install a output audio at the back of the camera,there is a hole there as you can see.

I actually returned mine because the videos were choppy. I had wanted to do the same thing. I watched one movie that worked smoothly, and I could never get it to work again. However, the firmware may have been updated since then and work better.

http://www.learningdslrvideo.com/t2i-7d-disable-agc-rode-videomic/ Its not the mic ... its the camera. Either use the work around at the above link or http://www.learningdslrvideo.com/zoom-h4n-review/ you have to get a separate audio recorder and link it to the video in post. If you get frustrated, just remember the T2i is a PHOTO camera. Just appreciate that you are now shooting movie quality video for under a grand. At least that's what I tell myself to help me fall asleep at night. :)

Hi Giorgi, sorry to hear this. This camera has a built in speaker that when playing back recorded videos, sound should come out. -Vincent

I don't have that problem. I just have a problem with it not recording sound. The video is great, doesn't have blurry issues, I just can't get audio recording. But other than that, it's a good video.

I've had nothing but good luck with this camera. I've had no problem with the built in mic. I thought it worked greast. I haven't noticed any noise. You may have a defective camera. I'd contact Panasonic.

I have never had this issue when recording videos...have you tried wearing headphones while making your video?
