Julián_ttc Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Hi, guys, I'm new n this forum. I have a problem that I have not been able to solve in the last few days. I'm shooting a material with my GX-80. I notice that the exposure varies during filming. I'm in M mode and the ISO fixed at 200. I want to control the exposure manually and I can not achieve it. I researched all the functions but I did not get anywhere. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizz Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Have you checked the files on the SD card? Because you can have auto brightness on the lcd settings and that gives you the illusion of exposure changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azagey Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 There should be a setting in the menu that says something like "Exposure mode" or something similar and it's automatically defaulted to "P" event if you're in the "M" dial mode. If you go into the settings and find that exposure setting and switch it from "P" to "M" it should be good to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean 'M' on the mode dial, or with the mode dial set to 'Creative movie mode' (the 'movie camera' icon) and then setting that into 'M' mode (via the touchscreen). To get full exposure control for video you need to select 'Creative movie mode' on the mode dial. Then use the icon at the top-left corner of the LCD screen to select P/A/S/M for 'Creative movie mode' (only). Pressing the movie record button when the mode dial is in P/A/S/M positions (which control the exposure mode for still photos) will always use auto exposure for video.
