I'm an ammature. I just got this camera and I love it! I have 2 problems that I'm still trying to figure out how to fix. 1 is when I try to zoom in and focus on objects roughly 5feet away it seems impossible to get a clear picture and 2 when I adjust the shutter speed, the lighting gets all messed up so whenever I try to take a slow shutter spot, my picture comes out white. Any idea how to fix this?
Sorry. Thought my post didn't go up the first time..
@ Mike.. Ya it gets too bright wen u keep shutter speed at 30s or even at 8s. this mode, i think is to take pics at low light, like to get the shot of a road traffic where u get just the light trails and not d cars..
I've just purchased this camera after taking a look at what was out there and read reviews by professional advanced photographers who do reviews of camera equipment on the Web.
I'm quite pleased with the camera on a whole for its design and user use. Of course it would be silly to compare this with a higher end dsl camera with a bigger CMOS chip, costing much more. I have previously owned the first Hx1 so I am familiar with what Sony is trying to accomplish with this series. I've now jumped forward with this camera based on its working capabilities, being a great travel camera and video camera all in one, without having to attach a different lens or flash as it may be. I know its not going to take stunningly professional quality pictures and it shouldn't be expected to do so at its price point either. Where this camera I believe stands up better that the other prosumer compacts is the Carl Zeiss lens. I strongly encourage anyone who's in the market for this class of camera to take a serious look at it, keeping in mind what purpose your going to use it for and its marketable price point against the other manufacturers. The easy to read and ease of making adjustments within its menu system is something else worth noting.
I wish to select my still shots for professional processing. However, the Sony PMB software does not appear to offer this option.
Previously I stored my shots in Windows and it was simple to order prints online, or create a disc, etc.
If PMB will not allow this, then how can I upload from the HX100V to my pictures file in Windows?
Ravi.. thank you for your help.
To Mike
The focusing issue is because you are using too much zoom, the minimum distance that you can get a focus depends on how much zoom you're using, and that happens with all cameras and lenses, move back or zoom out. I have a filter adapter that I use for protection with UV and closeup filters, that's a solution to use more zoom and at the same time get closer to the object.
The bright scenes with slow speeds can be solved by using the lowest possible ISO and the ND filter that this camera incredibly provides, it's a rare feature that is used to overcome those situations, it's in the menu if you're not in auto mode. There are limits, and beyound that a real neutral density filter is necessary, they are made in many models that will cut the light and allow longer exposures even in bright sun.
Can anyone explain me how to use manual mode.
I tried to increase iso, shutter speed, aperture value by rotating job dial button but nothing was happening, Can someone tell me this step by step.
To Rupesh
Just press the dial to select the function and then rotatate it to adjust. It`s really confunsing till you learn how to to it, but it`s a very fast way to adjust the main settings.
I bought Sony HX100V Camera two days back, I am unable to use macro mode, Is there any manual macro mode in this camera? Its available in Nikon P500 but unable to find in this camera.
Can someone advise me, thanks in advance.
To Rupesh
This is one just one more of the things that makes this camera superior , there`s no macro mode as well as no evf button , it`s automatic. Just get close to the object untill you get focus. I suggest using max 2x zoom , you will get great results.
Thank you Fabio, God bless you..
I want to buy this model. But thinking about it's battery life. According to Sony if once recharged it's lithium ion battery can help taking about 410 shots or for 205 minutes. Is their claim true? May you, who are using this one, highlight upon it's actual capacity? How many still shots or video clippings of what duration can be taken if this battery is recharged once?
@Subhro K Basu : Since this displays digitally the remaining time, it goes up and down. Once u fully charge it u will get 290+mins of battery life. Once u start takin pics , say after 10pics it will show 279mins, then again 282mins and like that. I have never used my full battery life but nearly 3/4th of it. i have taken 200+pics at a go and i still had 75mins battery remaining. i am not sure if u can take 410shots but u can increase efficiency by turning of GPS and using EVF instead of LCD whilst takin pics.
hope this helps
I'm trying to decide between this and the Panasonic FZ150. I've been shooting with a Panasonic FZ28 and love the image quality (but want HD video).
Online reviews seems to indicate (fairly uniformly) that the FZ150 takes a better photo than the Sony, but if the quality is close then I might lean toward the HX100 so I can take advantage of the sweep panorama mode.
Anyone have thoughts between the two?
I'm choosing between the Sony HX100 and the Panasonic FZ150. Reviews seem to show that image quality is better with the FZ150, but (I think) it lacks the sweep panorama function that I really want.
Also, does anyone know if iMovie is now capable of handling the HD video files from either camera?
Finally, is the Sony worth the drop off in image quality?
How to focus background and defocus the front object, is it possible using any setting in this camera
I have this camera and I am really happy with it.
I have some pics I made with this camera on my site. The zoomfunction is brilliant.
When you click on my name you get a demonstration of what this zoom can do.
@Rupesh: Click the center button, it is for selecting d focus, then a white square which runs around will appear, move ur camera so that the square is over the subject u want to focus and place d camera close to the object u want to defocus, and click….
How to change iso ? i didnt get the settings
Dear Team,
Let me know that, whether zooming sound and operating sonds captured during video shoting or not?
plz help me to know this..
Just got a Canon SX40 today. Image quality is really good and can be compared to my Canon T3 wich has a big sensor. Very good job Canon. But if image quality is slightly better than Sony Hx100 and Hx9 , the rest is inferior. Awfull LCD, small and low resolution, inferior controls, no auto evf and macro ( wich is also inferior), movies are inferior, panoramas are very diificult to produce. All that and the many burst modes that Sony models have makes them still a better package.
My current camera is a Sony DSC-HX1 and I embed GPS data using a stand-alone Sony GPS-CS3. I can read it using Apple's iPhoto. I have read a review which says that the data embedded using the inbuilt GPS on the HX100V can only be read using the PMB software (available only for Windows). Please can someone confirm that this is NOT the case. I want to buy the HX100V but the GPS is critical because I live half in Scotland and half New Zealand and travel a lot (thus often forgetting where I have taken a photo!).
I have not much talk in regards to fps or burst mode, does this camera really do this at full res?
It is great camera with good features.If you buy you will love it.
I want to buy a new super zoom and confused between dsc hx 100v and fuji hs20exr. can any of the expert over here help me to decide which one is the best
To Hari
I`m not an expert but had both models and the Fuji model can produce good pictures and excelent macro, looks like a DSLR with many controls but it`s slow to operate and the mechanic zoom ring makes it impossible to get a decent zoom in movies, stabilization is almost non existant and it`s big and heavy, you love it and you hate it. The HX100 can do everyrhing the Fuji does and much more, it`s smaller , lighter has much more features and movies are perfect, image quality is also very good, I sold the Fuji and kept the Sony. Maybe you should also consider the new FZ 150 and if you can wait Fuji will release a super camera by december, a bridge with larger sensor 2/3, and high resolution evf .
i have been using this cam and noticed that pics by it having size 1.2mb to 3mb at iauto, 4:3, 16mp, is that okay with my cam or i need to visit service center?
HELP! I'm looking for a new camera to take pics of my grandchildren (mainly). The problem I currently have is shutter lag. When I finally get a smile from them, and take the picture, the image is so delayed that I usually end up with a turned head or worse. I'm considering the HX100V and the Canon EOS T3. How easy is the t3 to use? Would the HX100V be able to capture the picture I want?
Most of modern cameras have very low shutter lag, often your reaction time is far bigger than the time it takes to the camera to start taking a photo.
However, there is the focusing time, in most cameras you can minimize it with pre-focusing the frame by half press the shutter button and full press when the right moment arrives.
Basically, the image acquisition time = exposure time + focusing time + shutter lag.
If you are aware of this already, then I suggest you ask to try the camera in a store. Some review websites explicitly test shutter lag, you can search for them.
As far as I can tell, shutter lag in Sony HX100V, or other modern bridge camera is really low, but photo to photo times vary greatly depending on the shoot mode.
Check some smaller cameras like Sony HX9V or Canon SX220/230 HS, if you don't need the massive zoom, you will thank for the portability they provide.
If you really need/want quality, specially to print A4 or A3 without issues, then T3/1100D is a fine entry level choice… However if video is in your mind, you may want to check 600D as well.
BTW, Some camera take shots BEFORE you fully press the shutter button allowing you to choose the one you see fit. Just remember to half press the shutter button (even mobile phones have it)
Good luck!
To Jean
I have both cameras, the T3 and the HX100v, there's no shutter lag, focus with the Sony is extremely fast and accurate. If you use flash mode with red eye prevention then there will be a lag because the flash will blink to close the eyes iris.
I do not recomend DSLR for movies, specially with children, focusing is very poor, and high quality movies demands a steady subject or carefully manual focus.
The Canon T3 is very easy to use, it's fast and produces high quality photos , the level of details of the skin and eyes cannot be matched by small sensor cameras and when I'm taking pictures of my grand children indoors is my favorite.
I think that a killer combination is the Canon T3 + Sony Hx9. The HX9 is the pocket version of the HX100V and is my favorite camera for general shooting, it's small, fairly easy to use, fast, has lots of features and produces perfect movies. Stills are very good and you will probably be happy with them, but I miss the quality of a DSLR, the pocket size is very important for me.
The HX100V has more zoom and some extra features but image quality is as good in the HX9. By the way I had the Canon SX230 but I din't like it because of focusing issues and widescreen LCD, wich is great for video and awfull for photos.
I don't think you will find everything in a single camera, I'm very happy with this combo, for those moments I know I need the extra zoom I carry the HX100V, if I'm shooting people in a party or indoors, I take the Canon T3, for everything else including movies the HX9V with it's outstanding 16x lens is more than enough.
i purchased hx100v 3 days back can anyone tell me that why there is reddish background when ever i capture any type of image in it….??
Consumer Reports magazine was not enamored with the image quality of this camera: "This Sony may have one of the longest zooms in its class, but its middling image quality and high price tag make it less desirable than most superzooms. It has some unique features (it can shoot 3D photos and panoramas) and claims to have longer battery life than most in its class. But if image quality is your top priority, consider another superzoom."
In the superzoom category, it gave much higher ratings to the Nikon Coolpix P100 and L20, the Canon SX30 IS, and Panasonic DMC-FZ40. (Since the review, some of these models have been replaced with newer ones—FZ45, SX40)
Any possibility on whether video recording can be paused and then restarted???
Purchased Nikon P500…..really awsome cam…superb colour enhancing and backlighting ....just negative point is its not-so-sharp focus.
Picture quality will certainly not be as good as a low end DSLR….but the real fun of this camera is it versatility while retaining a decent IQ in the right hands. The video is superb IMO. For the price I think it does what it is designed to do "bridge the gap" I don't always want to carry my DSLR's and this gives me decent alternative and is a very fun camera to use. Go here for a few examples.
I have gone to buy Nikon P500, but after knowing the features and advantages of Sony HX100V and the look OMG, I really can't resist myself to buy it…..
No doubt this is far above FZ100, SX30 IS, p500 and HS20..
I would check FZ150 as well… But yes, HX100V and FZ150, while not DSLRs, are probably the best ultra zoom bridges of the moment… SX40 IS missed the point by upgrading only the sensor (and while it is quite good, the rest is the same).
Hi All,
Though the comments are mostly in favour of Sony HX 100V, it is a bit costly as compared to Nikon P 500 or Fuji FS 10. What should be the second option (taking Price as one of the parameters): Nikon P 500 or Fuji FS 10. Please mention the order of preference and Pros and Cons of both.
Many Thanks to the Bloggers.. This Blog is really amazing!!
in photos taken by my dsc hx 100v camera, close range, there is change in shape in left and right sides, why it is so? how can i fix it? can anybody help me?
Hx100v is a réal lovely camera
Nevertheless Some enhancement should be intrduced in thé NeXT version :
- video effet : diorama as panasonic GFX or Olympus PEN
- video AVCHD should be the only format peposed (see canon H.264)
- canon Still have thé advantage for those who Wang to capture vid for slowmotion postprocessing ( tape Canon and slomotion on YouTube to see all thé capabilities of canon 550d)
- 1080p or 720p @ 60fps should be proposed @ H264 as canon do ( not only avchd)
- tilting screen should be full a rotation system
Still images are good.Video quality is horrible.Steady shot not works perfectly .Lot of Blur while video rec even for slight movement.Audio capture is not at best.Earlier version was good for both Still & Video.
Hi, I have an Eos DSLR but am looking to purchase a smaller camera for travel. Most important thing for me is speed - both start up and shutter lag. I have been using a smaller canon and it's so slow, quality of photos is fine but just not worth the wait any more. Any thoughts on which is better - Nikon coolpix 7000 or the Sony dsc? Also what about wide angle shots? Have looked on some sites that have comparison tables but don't always trust their details.
any advise greatly appreciated. Kerri
Excellent camera with carl zeiss lens, 10frames/second at full resolution,I.S with the lens
and finlay good pictures.
Best camera in its category
i got it next week. It the best camera.
Does Anybody know if video recording can be paused????
I got this camera a couple of months back. It is just fantastic. It is probably the best in its category. I have taken some classy photos with this camera. Results are good in most situations. Ideal camera for any serious amateur. Colour reproduction is not perfect at times but the overall results make up for that.

Hello Fabio,
I can't quite make up my mind between the Sony HX100V camera and Nikon P500, and since you seem to have used/tested them both extensively, I wonder if you could help me decide.
Here's what I'm looking for:
- A bridge camera with superzoom, mainly to shoot live music concerts (photos and videos). So I need something that has that quick/ready-to-use quality of a point & shoot, and also captures well moving subjects, frequently in very low light conditions.
- Something that can consistently produce very good quality photos and videos alike for digital/online display mostly (webzines, blogs, YouTube, Vimeo…), instead of more traditional media like prints or TV screens.
- I have two Apple computers, running on Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard respectively, and it seems that the Sony AVCHD video format isn't supported by neither QuickTime nor iMovie.
Which one of these cameras would you recommend, given that the price tag is also an issue here?
Hi Oaktree
The Nikon P500 ( like the little sister S9100) has 2 major flaws, focusing and stabilization, and in my opinion there's no comparison with the HX100, in wich the movie format can be changed to MP4 and it provides very good quality.
There's a better choice for what you want and it's the Sony HX9V, it's a pocket HX100 with same sensor and software and if you want to use in concerts the small size is necessary , since security usually does not allow cameras that have a professional look like super bridges. I have both and the only time I use the HX100 is when I need more zoom ( very rare) and the EVF, the HX9V has a 16 X zoom and it's outstanding stabilization makes perfect movies. This little jewel has won many awards including one here, It's hard to get now since is backordered but is worth every cent.
Hello Fabio,
Thanks so much, you've been really helpful!
I don't really have a problem with that since I usually have a photo pass and/or attend concerts where over-zealous security isn't an issue. And when in the pit people tend to give you dirty looks if you're carrying any semblance of compact camera, no matter how great it is. :)
I have a Nikon DSLR, an awesome camera that I hate using at music shows, because it's bulky (I like to pack light when attending a show) and morose, with the interchangeable lenses and all the adjustments when using the manual mode, which sometimes ends up costing me that perfect photo…
So I guess I'll throw in the extra money and go for the full package, superzoom and EVF included.
Just one more question, is the quality loss significant between the MTS and MP4 formats?
I am an athlete and I really like the no blur settings…however when using the High bursts, is there a way to have it be long burts in shorter seconds other than the settings available?
pls help me which camera is better nikon p90 or sony hx100v.
I'm pretty disappointed with this camera - particularly the extremely slow buffer to SD card transfer speed. In single shot mode it takes about 5 seconds to clear after every shot - even in "advanced sports" option - and there is no way to stop it from displaying the image after the shot. You simply cannot take consecutive sports action shots. In "burst mode" the focus and exposure settings are fixed on the first image so if the subject is moving towards you rapidly then forget it - plus it takes about 15 seconds to clear the buffer. If Sony can have 10 full res shots in the buffer at one time then they could do better with individual shots - at least delaying the transfer until 10 individual shots had accumulated and permitting the camera to function. I suspect this is a deliberate hobble to push people towards more expensive cameras - but they should make this limitation clear to people. I'm annoyed with Sony for doing this. They have destroyed a good camera with hobbled firmware. If anyone knows how to hack the firmware then please got to work on it!
To Ian (#154)
I would like to disable the display after each shot too but there's a solution, take the picture and immediately press the shutter half way, it won't display the picture and will be ready for another picture, you can take about 1 shot per second this way. The sports mode is just to improve the focus with moving objects and you can take consecutive shots faster with the above procedure .
If you use some scene modes and the AUTO plus it will take longer to clear because the camera actually took up to 5 or 6 shots and then blend them into one single shot, recommend the nightshot without tripod, very nice.
BH shows the HX100V as discontinnued !?!?!
Thanks for that Fabio - when I get onto a straight forward program mode then this does manage about one image per second wtih a very rapid focus. The image is still displayed but only very briefly. In "Advanced Sport" mode it's about one image every three seconds due to the focus hunting - which is a bit ironic. I can't get it to completely stop displaying the image after the shot - but I'd imagine this is what happens to you too.
It's mad! Avoid continuous shooting (burst) and "advanced sports mode" if you want to use the camera for sports. I feel a bit better though knowing that I can get a focused shot per second. That's more reasonable.
Another issue I have is that the adjustment lens ring is not mechanical - it's just another electronic switch. If you take a single shot and keep your finger half way down so as to get rapidly onto the next shot - then you need to coordinate this with a complete release of the shutter button straight afterwards because when it re-focuses you can't use the zoom - even with the lens ring. When these cameras are reviewed the "continuous shooting mode" should be described as a "limited fixed parameter burst mode" The fixed parameters include focus, exposure and zoom. It's practically impossible to get all of this to work at one shot per second with this device. I put a class 10 SD card in and the "ready" time after a 10 shot burst dropped to around 9 seconds from 14 with a class 6. Sony had told me it would make no difference! Can't see any difference with the single shots though. I don't see how Sony couldn't have extended the buffering to 10 "single " shots and made the interval between single shots much shorter and less tricky. If anyone out there can hack firmware then there's probably a job for you there!
plz. help me.
I am confused,Which is the best camera for all kinds of photography? I want super Macro, Clear image, HD video and super telephoto with PS camera.
There is no such thing as the best camera for all kinds of photography…
You have to do compromises, HX100V has an awesome image quality for its class, however I would look at Panasonic FZ150 for something with faster in focus and shooting.
If you want smaller with a bit less zoom you can pick a travel zoom camera… it costs nearly half of a bridge camera…
If you want a step up from that in image quality you can try the brand new Fujifilm X-S1. Problem is that it is a very new, and expensive, camera (problems might arise).
Nikon V1 or J1 provide a P&S experience while having a very high image quality for their size. You can buy several lens to fit your need. The problem is that the system is not mature enough in market.
Micro Four thirds cameras might be a good bet as well as they provide a P&S experience while having more advance modes if your wish to explore them… Obviouly, and like Nikon 1 System, lens are expensive.
IMHO, Panasonic FZ150 is the best balanced bridge camera.
Likewise, in travel zoom segment, Canon Powershot X220 HS looks really good.
Obvious no camera is perfect…
To Pravin,
I think this is the camera you are looking for - but you have to accept compromises with it. The small sensor permits it to be compact - but creates other natural limits. I can't carry half a ton of gear around with me so this works for me. I was just a bit disappointed at the limitations of the buffering to card transfer and absence of continuous adjustments during burst shooting.
I contacted Sony to ask if a faster class 10 SD card would make a difference over my class 6 and they replied "NO". It does make it faster though - even in "single shot" mode although the difference is not so obvious there. Most people will not be affected by this issue - it is an issue for me because I need to photograph skiers coming towards me! At least the images I do get (one per second if I don't try to re-zoom) are in focus and good.) The video and lens stabilisation are excellent so altogether it's an incredible package at a very low price. It would have been fantastic if they had continuous focus, exposure, zoom and visualisation during continuous shooting - but I guess that will eventually filter down from the top SLT model and will be my next purchase in a few years time. The camera is great though and outside of this specific requirement it is impressive.

Hey All,
I recently took some pictures at my nephew's basketball game. I have a Canon 7D with the new Canon 70 - 200mm 2.8 ii ...one advantage of not having kids.
My brother-in-law loved the pictures and now wants a camera that he can use for basketball, plays, gymnastics…so basically indoor activities. So low light, stop action, high FPS burst that won't break the 4 college fund accounts. Hoping to keep the budget around $500 - $770 USD.
I came across the the Sony HX-100 and thought it might fit his needs. Does anyone have experience with taking pictures at a basketball game? How does it perform in low light AF? I know they won't match my pictures but will they be good enough at the High ISO that he'll be generally happy?
I appreciate any insight or other model recommendations you can give me.
Thanks in advance.
Finalee an camera thad work like it supose to do.
good high iso shots,bright lens at wide,good image qality,good viewfinder,great lcd,exelent stabilization,and usable in low light.
and Finalee one thad work when you zoom to max.
The smearing at 100% view are indeed some what disturbing,but better then the noise of the FZ100
abit downsampled the pictures are bright have good color.and no noise.
Pitty there is no raw mode.But you can lower the noise reduction,but gain noise then.
all in all an exelent camera.
This camera is a gem.
The camera is let down in action photography by a poor buffering system. It can't shoot continually and adjust any parameters simultaneously - so if an object is moving towards you at 50 km per hour for 50m away you will get one shot only with precise focusing no matter what mode you use. I don't think there is any camera in this price range that is any better though and it is outstanding value in many other ways. I just wish it didn't have this fundamental problem. I wouldn't recommend it at all for action photography.
Ian B
just press the ok button for an few temes then the camera jump to continiu focus.
Set the camera on high speed 10 frames a sec.
This allow you to folow the subject.
Afcours you have to see thad the subject stay withing the viewfinder range.
Try it it is easy :p
Claus - you misunderstand. Once you press the shutter button and hold it down there are no more adjustments made - the focus does not track the subject - the exposure setting does not adjust. I assume that you are referring to the "tracking focus" - which is pretty useless for action photography anyway as you don't have time to set it up normally - it's only useful if an object is likely to move off-centre unpredictably and you have the time to set it up - plus if the object is quite close and not too small. Tracking stops the moment you hold down the shutter button. The predictive focus in sport mode is only good for one shot too - and you can't access predictive focus in any other mode - and that closes off the "tracking focus" option plus it "hunts" so badly that you risk missing even your single shot. The camera is in effect very badly designed for action photography because they have put a cheap memory/buffering system in it. It's probably a hardware limitation rather than firmware. It's just bad news that they don't make any of this clear and they fool people into thinking they are buying a good action photography camera. It would probably have cost them next to nothing to have used better technology here as they are using in their hybrid cameras. I won't buy another bridge camera until this sort of issue is properly addressed in future. Saying that I'm quite happy using the camera within it's limitations now that I'm clear about them. The 2 Mega pixel stills taken from HD video are remarkably good and that is all I personally need for pure action shots for multimedia purposes. This camera would however disappoint a semi-pro action photographer.
Afcours it is not perfect.
It is no Dslr,it track down your subject Aslong the object is in the viewfinder.
Ones it is of screen the camera need time to focus again,I think it is not an problem with the sony HX100V
But every camera included the panasonic FZ100 have thad problem,also the P500 do it to.
If you need better tracking I am afraid you have to buy an dslr.
As none of the superzooms do an great job.
The best thing you can do is not hold to long in prefocussing,and use the 10 frames a second.
For sport pictures I am also afraid none of the superzooms do an great job,atleast high iso is better on the HX100V then on the panasonic FZ100
so you get an little better pictures,and focus is faster on the HX100V to.
But yes you are right,none of the superzooms give speed as an dslr.
Its a WOW!!!!!!!!!
Thanks all. After more research and your input, he's decided to look into a more advanced system. Body and exchangeable lenses. Price has become much less of an issue vs IQ and flexibility. Take care.
Well, I need a camera that can take action pictures of skiers - usually coming towards me - and this camera unfortunately can't handle the job. I'm accepting video stills as a compromise. It's just frustrating when it won't do the main job you really want it for. I can't carry loads of bulky lenses and I need powerful telephoto. Some day a bridge camera will exist that will do the job - but it isn't this one. Even the Sony hybrid cameras can do it so I'm frustrated they couldn't (or wouldn't) go all the way with this camera.I'm not going to carry around a stack of interchangeable lenses (once again) - been there - done that. This camera would be great if it wasn't for this problem - but it's a really big problem if you do action photography - it effectively cripples the camera.
To Rob D
If I may sugest an excelent alternative, the Fuji X10 is an outstanding camera for low light situations, has a larger sensor than the HX100 and a 28 -112 mm 2.0 to max 2.8 aperture, ISO performance is excellent with ISO1600 being quite good. The qualiy is the same as an entry level DSLR if not better (my opinion), and some internet reviews consider the X10 superior to 4/3 cameras with standard lens , only those bright pancakes can beat it, but they are prime lenses and zooms are too dark, so ISO must be increased.
If the max 112 mm is enough for indoor use it's a great choice.
I carry a Sony HX100 for the fast focusing , excelent dinamic range ,zoom and movies, a Canon G12 because it's fast to use (no lens cap) and to keep in a pocket and the Fuji X10 for portraits, low light and general shooting. My DSLRs are collecting dust, I don't use them anymore.
It is not going to work for ski action.
I suggest you narrow down,and for example you get an nikon D60 and an tamron 70-300 this scheap lens around 100 dollar will take mush better action pictures.
You only need one lens just one.
And use this one for you action pictures,the rest you can shoot with your HX100V
how to shoot movie in dark room from DSC HX-100V? Is there any setting?I know flash is not working for Movie section?
For sports shooting: If you have daylight, shift the dailer to Shutter speed priority mode, set min of 1/2000 speed, and start shooting.
Vikram - it makes little or no difference from any of the other modes - still have to remove your finger from the button after each shot - still have to use single shot mode - still trouble zooming while doing all of this and the same buffer transfer lag as in other modes. Might work a bit when following something moving from left to right but doesn't when trying to follow something moving fast towards you - which is the standard test for such issues. Sony fails to make this negative point clear and so does the review in this blog and any other review I've seen. They are quick to promote this function when it actually is in a camera so you have to infer by its absence that it just isn't there. It's dishonesty on Sony's part really however you look at it because they know a lot of naively hopeful people will be fooled. It would be a great camera if not for this fundamental limitation in function. The next generation of cameras will not have this problem. I'm not going down the SLR trail again and carrying all that expensive junk around with me so I make do with the frustrating limitations of this technology.
Am thinking of purchasing this camera prior to an upcoming family trip to Istanbul. I am new to anything other than a compact point and shoot and this camera seems to be a good entree into something slightly more high-end with better photo quality and video capability. Reviews look great and I was ready to make the purchase when I came across this blog with comments that it is not compatible with iPhoto and iMovie. Is this still the case? Being a Mac user, this may be a deal breaker for me.
Any feedback on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Great and helpful blog, by the way.
Hi All,
i have baught my HX 100V a couple of months ago, it works pretty good with super zoom,
I am not a proffessional photographer and i just wanna take some close up shots of flowers, birds and my GF face.
Can i add Reynox DCR-2025 PRO High Definition 2.2x Telephoto Lens,
Will it make any difference in IQ?
please advise me,
thank you,
Yemmm!! Fentastic Camera!!
Really amaizing picture quality
I have both the hx100 and also a Sony A580. They are different cameras. The 580 carries a 18/250 lens which is longer than any SLR lens I previously had and the equal at wide angle, so that lens will seldom come off unless I want to use my old Minolta f/1.4 50 mm lens for portrait.
The hx100 is great for general purpose, but will be limited by noise at high ASA by the physics of the small sensor. Still, Sony has done an amazing job on that issue for such a small sensor. It will reach out farther to catch the bird in the tree with its longer zoom
The 580 is a classical konica/minolta/sony SLR with lots of weight and super optical and other performance. You have to be willing to go the extra dollars to get there and then to lug it and a heavier mini-tripod around.
On an upcoming trip I'll give my wife a pocket point and shoot and the HX100. I'll take another pocket camera and the 580. She will get some pictures I can't and I'll get some she can't.
I like both, but for different reasons. There are compromises in any sensor size and advantages as well. Small sensors work well for long zoom, while large ones are much better from a noise standpoint, even at normal light. The weight goes up rapidly with the sensor size and the zoom range goes down unless you want a lot of optical problems.
Great reviews…. much impressed. Planning to get one SONY hx100 in couple of months..
Does this camera allows you to handle the zoom manually (Such as in Fujifilm HS10/HS20) ?
Pls your response the sooner the better…
Thanks and Greetings
Yes, but it's not mechanical, it's electronic, very smooth, great for movies the only drawback is that you can't zoom if shutter is half pressed, but in general is better than Fuji's
Thank you Fabio!
I hv purchaged this camera 15 days back because i cannt wait for new hx200v.Image quality and zoom is really awesome but difficult to undestand full control.
Have just bought the Sony DSC Hx100v. Excellent results. Have only one minor iritation with it.
The beep is too loud bearing in mind that what ever you press it "beeps". This can be off putting in a room full of people. I can guess why
Sony has made it so loud, but instead of providing hobson's choice of on or off, could they not have just limited it to an autofocus beep?
hi, i am a beginner and i am confused between SONY HX100v ans Canon HS40x.
-price diffrence is marginal
-sony has more features of faded background, paranoma sweep etc.
-cannon has better picture quality..
please suggest which one to buy. it wil really matter to my purchase.
as i found your blog the most reliable one after my 1 month of research
Shantanu, I do not see the Sony as an inferior picture to the Canon, esp in the superzoom field. Sony features a Zeiss lens and that is usully quite special.
The Sony is a great camera and the video is stunning. There are only image issues when looking at the images at 100% on your computer. If this is a really big issue for you then you can try the HX200V which has an improved sensor and image quality but otherwise is the same camera. Sometimes the image quality of the HX100V bugs me but not often.In general the creative potential of the camera is shockingly good.
Help! I have problem with sweep pan on SonyDSC HX100v camera. On Wide it sweeps horizontally and vertically ok. On HR mode it only sweeps vertically. I cannot get it to sweep horizontally.
Hi David
Don't worry, your camera is working ok. When in HR panorama you need to keep the camera in the up position and sweep in to the right or left, it will create a horizontal panorama.
" Alternatively you can change the in-camera sharpening level. "
I have open of these cameras.
Where is the 'in-camera sharpening' function?
Thank you.
I highly recommend this camera, or the HX200V 100%.
Worth every cent….
I'd like to buy a camera, and I'm a beginner, but would like to learn more with manual settings. I hesitates between entry level dslrs and bridge cameras, and realised bridges are more affordable for me (without the need of buying proper objectives as well)
I went through many-many reviews, but I still can't decide.
So i would like to ask your opinion on wchich one's the best! smile.gif
My requirements for the camera:
Price should be among 300-470$ (though prices here in Hungary are more than in the USA)
Manual settings (mainly interested in manual focus, preferably with ring on the lens barrel)
Sharp and nice colorful images with as low noise as possible
min. 12 MP
good (full)HD video
I was considering Sony Cybershot DSC-HX100V (456.32$ here), Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR (481.15$ here), Canon PowerShot SX40 HS (466.43$), and other Nikon bridge cameras (like Nikon Coolpix P510 (452.63$), which has manual focus, but without ring, and others that don't have manual focusing at all..)
Thank you very much for your help!! smile.gif
The Sony HX100v is an excellent camera in its marketplace, arguably the best in overall performance. However if your are a newcomer to photography and want to learn more about manual settings I would advise you to plump for the Canon 550D which offers the beginner a much more encouraging learning curve. The HX100v has some
really interesting features not least the panoramic sweep mode but the 18megapixel Canon offers superior allround quality backed by superior overall instruction. Money better spent.
I am just about to buy the HX100V. However i see the HX200V is about the same price using a cash back offer in the UK.
Should i choose the 200 for the extra features or has the IQ deceased as many commenters elsewhere think?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
To Rich
By all means get the new one, specially if price is very close, the HX100 is very good but the HX200 is even better, no decrease in quality at all, some people who never had the chance to use the camera imagine that megapixels increase is equal to image quality decrease, what counts here is the combination of sensor , processor and software, the lens are the same.
Everything is improved , even low light performance and the new paint HDR is incredible, for me is worth the price of the camera, It takes a lot of work to get this effect that DSLR users love so much, take a look
Since it's packed with everything you can imagine it takes some time to master but the 2 auto modes are excellent, the only thing I miss is a hotshoe and portability, that's why I ordered a HX30 , same sensor , software and 20x zoom, it's the pocket HX200 .
Go for the HX200 , you won't regret.
Could some body help with 1. Playing videos on PC on SONY's PMB- my experience, very poor quality 2. Making std quality DVD using PMB 3.Any other media player which could play the videos anywhere close to HD TV- GOM is my only success with results poorer than PMB.
Thank you I took your advice and got the HX200V. There are so many things good about the camera.
For trembling people like me, the stabiliastion is great and the speed of focus and shutter also. These were all the things i liked on my F717.
I have found that DSLR such as Olympus E410 and Panasonic G2 are just not focus fast and stable enough for me to get pictures I wanted. So for example in a 1000 shots i have 3 blurred with the sony, a blur rate of less than 1%. The G2 gave me about 20% blurred pictures, the olympus 10%, Fujifilm f70EXR about 15% and Kodak z915 about 5%.
I found the grip too large for my hand, and at the end of day it was quite sore. The EVF was also uncomfortable without a rubber eyepiece and positioned and too small.
In respect to IQ, I am not impressed. Fujifilm F70EXR indoors daylight at iso 400 is better than than Sony iso 100 in daylight. Instead of taking photos whilst filming (excellent quality video btw) i took screenhots from video at 1900x1080 which were far superior to those in camera.
But i am returning the camera because there are missing pixels in the EVF. I also had memory card errors using a brand new 32gb Samsung SDHC Class 10 card. One time I even got the dreaded C:13:01 - looks like has not resolved the firmware issue since 2002.
This error cost me my lovely F717 and stopped me buying any sony products for the last 8 years. If sony could solve this and put all the latest technology into the body of a f717 with a better sensor, rather than producing a broad substandard range for marketing purposes, they could become the market leader between the future phone and DSLR markets when point and shoot is dead.

TAMPA — Akila McDonald had a season-high 16 points and 12 players scored for USF in an 82-53 victory over Jacksonville on Wednesday night at the Sun Dome.
Every Bulls player saw action in front a crowd of 1,294. Courtney Williams had her third straight game scoring in double digits with 15 points, and Shalethia Stringfield added 13 for USF (2-1).
Shavontae Naylor had a career-high 10 rebounds as USF finished with a 57-36 edge on the glass.
"We attacked the glass, and that's what I've stressed the last two days in practice," coach Jose Fernandez said.
USF, which improved to 10-0 against Jacksonville (0-2), cruised in the second half despite turning the ball over a season-high 21 times overall.
NO. 7 KENTUCKY 103, GA. SOUTHERN 38: Reserve Bernisha Pinkett scored 19 for the Wildcats (3-0) in a morning home opener before about 2,000 sixth-graders.
NO. 16 TEXAS A&M 76, PRAIRIE VIEW 27: Karla Gilbert had 15 points and seven rebounds to lead the Aggies (2-0) in their home opener.
NO. 18 PURDUE 76, IUPUI 56: KK Houser had 20 points to lead the host Boilermakers (2-0).
NO. 23 IOWA ST. 88, S. DAKOTA 72: Hallie Christofferson had 25 points and 12 rebounds to lead the host Cyclones (2-0).
NO. 1 UCONN: All-America forward Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis has a nerve bruise in her right elbow and is out indefinitely. Forward Morgan Tuck will miss four to six weeks after having arthroscopic knee surgery.
kansas tops duke: Andrew Wiggins scored 16 of his 22 in the second half, outplaying fellow freshman Jabari Parker down the stretch and helping fifth-ranked Kansas knock off No. 4 Duke 94-83 late Tuesday in Chicago.
"Big players make big plays," Wiggins said. "I think our whole team, whoever was on the court, every possession we made a big play. That's why we came out on top."
Parker, a star at Chicago's Simeon Academy, had 27 points, nine rebounds and two steals for the Blue Devils (1-1). But Wiggins made the biggest plays in the final minutes. He hit a stepback jumper to give the Jayhawks (2-0) an 85-81 lead with 1:33 left, then had a fastbreak dunk as a trailing Parker picked up his fifth foul.
OLE MISS: Senior guard Marshall Henderson will return for Saturday's game after being suspended for the season opener.
WASHINGTON: Forward Jernard Jarreau will miss the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

What we're about
If you look at our mission, you'll see that we're about creating change. Our vision is a world where violence against women isn't tolerated, where women get equal pay for their work, where access to reproductive health and information is so obvious a right that anything else is simply absurd...where racism, homophobia, classism, nativism etc. simply isn't tolerated.

Our method is to create space for growth and change. Those spaces can be online, in real life, or in your mind. We invite you to use this online space to float ideas and questions, research things you might not have known about, and broaden your mind in ways that encourage you to see the world as bigger than you, bigger than your family, bigger than your city, state, country, etc.

whats wrong/unhealthy about being in ketosis? (misinformed CWpeople do confuse it with ketoacidosis - a completely different thing)
whats wrong with complete or near-absence of carbs? - your body can easily produce as much glucose as it needs
the presence of additives will be a problem if you go the Atkins frankenfoods way - a big nono!
foods high in antinutrients are avoided when avoiding carbs - no legumes/grains/veggies/fruits
i guess atkins as a "diet" is very well as long as you eat REAL FOOD.
whats so great about primal is that ist a LIFESTYLE that includes so much more than "diet" and the "diet" part allows for a big levy among us primals when it comes to carbs as long as we avoid the neolithic agents of disease.

FILM CREW ON EVERY BLOCK?: Over the last several years, New York City has enjoyed a massive increase in production — from 69 films shot in 1993 to 221 in 1999. Now the City Council, in its infinite wisdom, is trying to pass a resolution to slow up the permit process. Film crews may currently obtain a permit from the city overnight; the Council wants to send the applications on to community leaders for approval. That could take weeks or even months.
One City Hall insider says New York can kiss most of its film production goodbye if the resolution passes. Film crews will go to Canada where space is available — and the government gives you money.
The reason for the Council's move? Local neighborhoods are upset at tripping over cameras, cables and grips without any prior notice.
(I, for one, couldn't stand it when "Law and Order" shot in my Upper West Side neighborhood because I couldn't park my car. But since "Law and Order" is one of my favorite shows, I excused its domination of the local streets.)
City Hall also points out that notices are posted as much as four to six weeks in advance.
Love him or hate him, under Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, the city has truly grown cleaner. As a result, studios and indies want to shoot here. Nobody, save a few irate neighborhood activists, will be happy to see them go.
WHAT? ME WORRY ABOUT A STRIKE?: Are the studios, as some cynical Hollywood naysayers indicate, actually looking forward to an actors and writers strike?
A quiet survey of high-end studio types reveals that while no studio topper will go on the record behind a WGA or SAG work stoppage, many admit that it might be nice to have a breather. In this age of monolithic studios, films become the minimal tail that wags the house-sized dog. Films are regarded as loss leaders as studio profit margins rarely rise above 12%.
So heads are enticed by a potential force majeure clause that means the studio or network can absolve itself from any long-term contract that is affected by the strike. Any pricey multipic deals with actors or writers can be dropped without any recrimination.
According to some estimates, that means savings could reach $400 million-$500 million industrywide.
But ultimately, that's not the answer. The studios still have relationships with actors and writers. And if a studio yanks its relationship with talent, there's a pretty solid guarantee that talent won't be seen near that studio again.
Even the cockiest of studios can't afford to alienate too much of the talent.
Yet one studio chairman says he's had enough of the bickering. "If they strike, they strike," he says. "I'm not worrying about it anymore."
NEW LINE TROUBLES: New Line Cinema has had an ugly year. This much is true. But the Time Warner executive committee, which used New Line's problems with "Little Nicky" to illustrate all of TW's film woes in its earnings report this week, might try some navel-gazing. Flagship studio Warner Bros. has been equally irksome in the fourth quarter. WB's "Red Planet" has racked up an unmemorable $17 million B.O. WB's "Pay It Forward" limped along to $32 million in ticket sales. Yet there was no mention of either film in the Time Warner earnings report.
And though it can't be lumped into this quarterly report, "Proof of Life" looks as though it'll need resuscitation. Pic has grossed $18 million after 10 days, and last weekend's take was down 47% from a week earlier. Let's not also forget the frightening "Get Carter."
The point is that, since TW acquired New Line from Ted Turner, it has seen outrageously successful perfs out of both "Austin Powers" pics as well as "The Wedding Singer" and "Rush Hour." In addition, the company usually gleans profits out of its low-budget efforts.
As for production chairman Michael De Luca's future, which my colleague Michael Fleming discussed in his column just yesterday, sources say New Line is trying to restructure some key-man clauses that tie incoming talent and projects to him. This would allow New Line to maintain a production slate if he leaves.
Despite New Line's troubles, De Luca has ridden tough times out before with such big-budget nonperformers as "Last Man Standing," "Long Kiss Goodnight" and "Lost in Space."
A LONE LION: While Lions Gate staffers are packing for sunnier climes in L.A., Lions Gate Releasing co-prexy Mark Urman has cut himself a deal to stay in his beloved wintry Gotham with a spanking new contract. Reports had the former publicist ankling Lions Gate because of the L.A. move. A longtime denizen of the Gotham film community, Urman refused to leave because his kids were approaching that point in adolescence when they refuse to leave. Urbane and urban snob that he is, he also simply prefers New York.
Urman and at least one assistant will vacate the trendy Soho offices for a more modest uptown abode on 52nd Street. They will give Lions Gate a small, if not potent, New York presence.
Urman claims he had no choice. "It had a lot to do with who I am and my identity," Urman waxed. "I love the community here. I've been a member of the film community in New York since 1973. And it is a community, not an industry. I know and like everybody. It has sustained me."

Okay, I love Fashion Week. Yes. I read fashion blogs, I go through the look-books. I adore the stuff. Last year marked one of the very first years that bloggers received press credentials for access into the hottest runway shows. The downside was that because cameras and computers aren't allowed in, some bloggers had to return to their hotel rooms before posting.
I was thrilled to learn that the site HauteLook and Sony Style partnered up this year to host a media lounge during New York Fashion Week at the Bryant Park Hotel. Media (including bloggers) can use the lounge as a remote office, just steps from the Bryant Park tents where the shows are held.
We are even providing a variety of fashionable electronics for the lounge including VAIO Signature Collection notebooks equipped with complimentary Wi-Fi access so folks can quickly & quietly write about what they see without the worry of electronic logistics. Selfishly this means we can read about the latest shows as they happen from our favorite fashion writers. We decided to feature the Signature Collection since this collection of notebooks is all about fusing that bold design with peak performance.
Now for Sony Style customers: If you live in New York, you can head to the 550 Madison Avenue Sony Style store because we'll be offering select Signature Collection notebooks there for purchase. This includes a few of the Crocodile CS series notebooks that are sold out everywhere else.
If you don't live in New York, you can still look the part. Sony Style is giving away a coupon code for a free gold clutch carrying case ($89.99 value) with a purchase of any new P series VAIO notebook. Simply place both the P series VAIO notebook and clutch case into the cart and then enter the code: VAIOFASHIONWEEK09 during checkout. (Some restrictions do apply so check below for those details).
Anastacia, one of Sony Style team members headed over to the lounge to see it come to life. She sent over some photo to share. It's always fun to see things like this come together!
Okay so we all may not have secured our seat on one of those lovely little white chairs so neatly lined up inside a Bryant Park show tent, but heck. At least we can strut our stuff down our own hallway carrying a piece of it with us 🙂
For more photos and onsite details about the lounge, you can also read " Fashion Forward VAIOs Invade Fashion Week Press Lounge" on the Sony Electronics blog.
Coupon restrictions for use: Limit 1 per customer. Cannot be combined with other offers or bundles. Expires 9/22. Valid only at SonyStyle.com or in-store at the Sony Style retail store on Madison Avenue in New York. Available only while quantities last.

Simple Motor Mount
Heres the simple motor mount ive been using,light ply but anchored into the foam with some bamboo skewers.. orginally i used tooth pics but after the stress testing with the plane way overpowered i figured i should make the mount a bit more bulletproof. The original method worked.. the foam broke off and pulled the mount off with it. You can use what ever works though,building up the area around the nose with extra foam or adding light ply skin so to speak around the nose will work to give it more surface area to spread the force and bond to. Heres some pics to give you a better idea.

Here you all go...THANKS again Getreal.... you da man!
Thanks for the plans. Not familar with DXF files but can open the pdf fine. Just a note,the rudder height is 12 and 1/4'' tall but the plans are very close and are great overall,its easy to tweak the design more to your flying style. Not difficult to give the ailerons more surface area or enlarge rudder length etc to your liking. Gonna take it out for a couple quick flights to check the thrustline and make sure the plane is fine after the repair . The motor seems fine inside during static run ups but better to see how it does in the air,in about a week i should have some revisions done for the original and get some flying in with it,still need to get some parts to get it done(should have them by next week). I might have some pics and probally some video from todays flights .
Get Real, the print settings on the dxf have it set to print at 8.5 x 11 (letter size paper) which is incorrect...someone needs to get the print scale right on the pdf...I am looking into it, but I think someone else with more pdf & tiled pdf experience would be able to do it faster...
Anyway...the PDF attached is at 100% scale - KevBeer - I moved some things around a little and dropped the dims off - forgive the edits!
I *THINK* my version of Adobe Acrobat Designer will allow me to tile this baby down to "Letter" size or 11x17...unfortunately I'm at home, not at work. In the meantime if anyone wants to mess with this...well...here it is. Not sure it helps.
P.S. if I think of an even-more funky way to do this I'll post it.
OR...you can try this...
Tiling Instructions
Cool thing about the Posterazer program is that you can define your final "poster" size. As mentioned elsewhere in the thread, it doesn't print alignment marks.
At full scale - with some clever printing - you might be able to output this on 50 "letter-sized" sheets - If you decide not to be clever about your printing...then it 70 sheets.
Of course - bigger paper...well... you get the idea...
Below are tiled PDFs of the file I edited - it's not KevBeer's original file...but it's gosh darn close...If you want, say, a 126" version of this plan...well...you'll have to download the above mentioned programs and tile away...
Im sure all these formats are great,ive just never built a foam plane from plans. Looking forward to seeing some of these,if someone builds them be sure and post some feedback with pics and video if you can. Im interested in the likes and dislikes people have about the plane after they fly it. A couple strips of foam cut at a 45 to go along the fuselage will stiffen up the design,its a popular way of making foamy fuselages more rigid but its not a nessesity for slow and floaty flying. I got one quick flight on it again today before i had to leave. It was a bit windy at times,i'll have the video posted later.
Get Real...Dude...I was just gonna PM you...but then I figured I'd splash it here instead...
For those that don't know...I picked up GR's proto shown in the start of this thread on Friday (sans gear) and threw a bunch of my old spare hardware onto it...my other gear was;
4 x HS-65s
pull-pull rudder with spare 3DHS phenolic arms on rudder servo & elevator
Turnigy 3536-1100 motor
APC 11x6 prop - this is subject to change but my next step was 12x8.
Amp draw with 3S 2200 was about 36ish so I've got room.
It was THE most fun I've ever had with a chunk of insulation! Once I got over the embarrassment of walking through the baseball crowd with this big Ol' Owens Corning Advertisement - I got her up and going. 1/2 Throttle and off she went.
For me...what a great training tool. I was used to big rudder requirements...with the side area on this thing you almost don't need one! Ended up one of the pull-pull anchors wasn't fastened tight...it popped out so I couldn't fly more. That'll be fixed in about 3 sec when I find the right nut.
Never flew flat foam before - what a blast - talk about NO PRESSURE flying - Get Real - Boy, you rock Dude!
No video from today, maybe this afternoon...but really...my flying doesn't compare so much with GR's anyway...so check his out and you'll get the idea.
great plans, i could scale it down to 35" and 38" for the people that want to use 2208 and 2215-7 motors
I have no other profile bird to compare it to - but at the current size - I still have a smile. Who'da thought!
Cfisher,Glad your having fun with it,If the pink is a little embarassing.. you can always cut one out of blucore or paint that one(didnt have any bluecore when i went to the home center). Embarassing... Kinda like a dude at a hobby shop wearing a santa hat in the the spring huh? . Might spray a paint job on the next one.. made some revisions for more manueverability and less pattern like flight characteristics .

Dassie is a unique and beautiful female name, originating from Hadassah. Dassie's are generally creative, smart, well-liked, popular, fashionable and fun. Another noted charachteristic among Dassie's is their ability to flirt, and their extreme amount of sex appeal. They are usually lusted after by many guys, and are very good dancers. Dassie's are also known to have a slight wild side; more often than not you'll see them dancing with two guys with a drink in either hand :).

Predawn Thursday (September 9) in Jackson Square, "Today" show executive producer Jim Bell expressed a fascination with HBO's "Treme."
Later, between live shots by Matt Lauer and Al Roker, "Today" visited the music-history-rich Treme neighborhood in a piece reported by Roker.
The story featured a snippet of John Boutte's "Treme Song" opening theme music, and interviews with "Treme" writer Lolis Eric Elie, musicians Glen David Andrews and Kermit Ruffins, and Lil Dizzy's proprietor Wayne Baquet.
"Some say Treme is where jazz was born," Roker says in his narration. "People here take pride in that history, and on any given night, that brass band tradition is in full swing. It's standing room only at the Candlelight Lounge, and the music is infectious."
Here's the clip:
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
The "Today" visit was prelude to Thursday night's season-opening game in the Louisiana Superdome between the New Orleans Saints and the Minnesota Vikings.
The Saints won, and so did the city. The NBC pregame – which otherwise featured music performances by Taylor Swift and The Dave Matthews Band – concluded on a "Treme" note when Kermit Ruffins, Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews, local brass bands, second-liners and Mardi Gras Indians joined Matthews for a rendition of the Talking Heads' hit "Burning Down the House."
Here's a clip, while it lasts:
Meanwhile, in an essay in The New York Review of Books, New Orleans native Nicholas Lemann reviews the season.
Some of it, he liked.
"(E)very episode of 'Treme' has quite a lot of wonderful, and wonderfully filmed and recorded, New Orleans music," he writes.
Much of it, he didn't.
"The procession of New Orleans signs and signifiers is relentless to the point of being exhausting; I found myself longing for a character just once to sit down for a meal and have a hamburger and a Coke instead of mirlitons and a Barq's," he writes.
Still, the piece supplies essential historical and cultural context, so check it out.
The essay's title: "Charm City, U.S.A."

- I have been told to avoid carbohydrate after 2 pm because it will turn to fat. Is this true?
- What are some alternatives to meat for a vegetarian diet?
Q. I have been told to avoid carbohydrate after 2 pm because it will turn to fat. Is this true?
A. There is no reason to avoid carbohydrate after 2 pm. The body gains weight when more kilojoules are consumed than used through daily activity and exercise. Carbohydrate, protein, fat and alcohol all provide the body with kilojoules. Therefore, you will gain weight if you consume an excess of any of these nutrients. Popular weight loss diets usually employ a number of 'rules' which sound scientific but are actually just a way of causing you to reduce your food intake, and therefore your kilojoule intake. Avoiding carbohydrate after 2 pm restricts your food choices and therefore may cause you to consume a smaller number of kilojoules. However, it is possible to achieve a similar reduction in kilojoule intake with a more balanced and enjoyable meal. It is preferable to choose a more balanced meal which provides a greater combination of nutrients. Avoiding particular food groups may cause you to miss out on nutrients which are necessary for good health. For further information, see Weight Loss.
Q. What are some alternatives to meat for a vegetarian diet?
A. If you have decided to become vegetarian it is important to include food choices that fully replace the nutrients found in animal derived foods. Some nutritious meat alternatives include:
- Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) - This looks a lot like mince however is made from plant and soy protein. It is a rich source of protein and iron and can be used to make dishes such as pasta sauce, lasagne, chilli con carne and casseroles.
- Ready-made meat alternatives - there are many specialised vegetarian products in the supermarket. These products are generally found in the 'health food' section of the supermarket. Vegetarian luncheon meats, sausages, hot dogs etc. can be found in the fridge section.
- Legumes (e.g. lentils, chick peas, kidney beans) are a rich source of protein and iron. Search through recipe books for suggestions for using these products. Many legumes now come canned pre-cooked making them much easier to use.
- Tempeh and tofu are good protein/calcium food alternatives and can be found in most supermarkets.
The Recipe section of our website includes some vegetarian recipes. Also have a look at our fact sheet on Vegetarian Eating.

8. Provide technical training to commercial and residential plan reviewers and inspectors on applicable state code, structural and civil engineering principles, details and construction practices.
9. Supervise commercial and residential plans examiners performing general supervisory functions including work assignments, review of work products, mentoring and performance evaluations.
