    New F500LHD Issues

    So, which firmware version did your camera originally have, the one ending in KH or GH? KH firmware is not compatible with GH it seems (GH is the newer hardware revision).

    F500LHD quality

    As an update, I received my replacement a few days ago. After testing, the replacement camera does not lock up (due to light changes) as the old one did. So far I am happy (except now I wish the camera had a higher bitrate for the same price :D). Received great service from estore009. I noticed...

    F500LHD best color settings for video recording?

    If you are brave and your current firmaware version ends in T2L-KH, you may want to try experimenting yourself and updating to Q2-4_7. This is a modified firmware version by Andromedich.

    F500LHD - screen going blank, stops recording

    Opend my camera and it does indeed have the Hynix memory (chip H5PS1G63EFR) which looks impossible to replace with just a soldering iron. Also, by accident discovered how to make the camera lock up every time; by quickly bringing it from low light to a very very bright light! It seems it can not...

    F500LHD - screen going blank, stops recording

    Same issue here. Purchased the camera from estore009 about three weeks ago. Using a 16 GB Maxell class 10 card. Tried two other firmware versions (8.8 and 8.9) and the camera still locks up, original firmware version was 6.9. Tried recording in 720, 1080, microphone on/off and still locks up...
