I'm a videographer. I have an internal and external micro configured in Manual -30db mode (low sensitivity).
Every time I turn on the X-H2s, the micro works in Automatic mode (image 1), ignoring the saved manual adjustment, being necessary to enter the volume adjustment menu (image 2), not changing anything, then exiting again to for Manual mode to work (image 3).
I compared two clips in an editing program (image 4), the first one on the left, I didn't go to the micro's menu. In the second, from the right, I went to the menu and came back.
It also happens with an external microphone. I have a extrenal wireless microphones and this manufacturer recommends reducing the camera input volume so that the sound does not clip.
Please, help me, because it's very annoying to have to change the menu every time I turn on the camera, a bigger problem if I forget.
