    Is there a way to get “crappy video” out of the HPX500?

    …we are shooting a production that is supposed to include surveillance footage so I figured if I can access proxies or something from our camera we could use it for everything.

    I can muck it up in post, but would prefer “organic” crappy video if you know what I mean.

    Nope, it does not. No add-on option either.

    ProxyMill would make proxies, but the quality might still be too good. Or, playback the vid thru a crappy old monitor and shoot off of that.

    Why not get a crappy sec cam and record that, they are really cheap.
