  EX1 – Disable Some Options

  Posted by Peter Chambers on August 26, 2009 at 9:42 pm

  Hi guys,

  How do you disable:

  1) The red record light while recording.

  2) That annoying beeping sound when battery is low?

  Thanks.

  You can certainly disable the light, front and back but I can’t remember which menu it’s under, just scroll through to find it. As to the battery bleep I don’t think you can disable that one, I know you can’t do that with the low media bleep. They stop when you are actually shooting but come on while in ‘standby’ which can be a nuisance. There are bleeps which you can disable, just search through the menus, it’s all there.

  The red light is a Tally light and you can turn if off from the Others menu (at the bottom of the main sub menus) and you can turn on/off the front tally as well as the rear.

  In this same Others menu is the Battery Alarm can be set as low as 5% remaining and I don’t believe it can be turned off.

  I was using the Anton Bauer Gold Mount that plugs directly into the DC in port and I can tell you that when the Anton Bauer battery dies there is no warning, and for me I am use to this warning beep.
