Yeah they really are better. I’m just moving up from a canon Vixia HV40 and in low light it was pretty bad (as far as grain goes) As I said. I’m new to this so I didn’t realise that 1.8 would be such a huge difference than 3.5 in low light, but it is. the 50mm 1.8 lens is really cheap and is verry good. Only thing is it doesn’t have zoom, but in film, zooing is usually done with the dolly anyway.

Hey man. Don’t send your camera back. I was having the same exact problem using the lens that shipped with it. I’m new at this too and I realized that I didn’t know how the aperture control worked’ so I thought that I could only fix the darkness by adding a higher ISO (Bad Move).
You change the aperture by holding down the “Av+/-” button while scrolling the wheel in front of the ISO button (Sorry if I’m being captain obvious)
As far as I know when I use the lens that shipped with the camera (18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens) it only allows me to lower the aperture to “3.5”, but my 50mm f/1.8 lens gives me the option to lower it to 1.8 of course.
the “Av+/-” button is located near the right top corner of your screen. if you lens is at least an f/1.8 through f/2.4 you should be able to drastically brighten your indoor shots. I’m only stating this because I just figured it out as I am a noob also:)

Yeah you are absolutely right. I just tested it. It makes 7.0 crash also. Did the earlier versions of quicktime work with it? Because they won’t even enable certain features in AE if Quicktime isn’t installed.
