I think the reason it is lessened on the HJ14 is that they are equipped with ALAC, so that along with the flare files would certainly reduce the chromatic Aberration you are seeing.

It would be interesting to see how you set your flare files up Martyn.

I use both an HJ17 and an HJ11 on my 500 Finbo.

Personally I love my 17, it breathes a bit but its a dream handheld being heaps lighter and more compact than the 11.

The 11 tends to only come out when I REALLY need it now.

Hello forum, A couple of colleagues have upgraded to the V1.2 software on their PMW500's and have discovered that since doing so their cameras throw up an error when using Swit batteries. IDX and Pag seem fine but presumably there is a handshake going on between the other brands that isnt happening ...
