Can someone please give me a little advice on audio settings...
When using the internal mic, whats the wisdom on getting the best balance between Analogue Gain and Mic Boost for a given sound level?

UPDATE:
After a little trial and error here's the gain structure I've settled on.
Obviously avoid any 'Digital Gain'....
Analog Gain - around +6db
Mic Boost - around +20db
A decent enough noise floor without being undersensitive with the built in mic, works ok for a mid-level wireless pack system too (Boya WM6) cranked up to level 29 (of 32) on both the body pack transmitter and the receiver also.
Lav mic placed at mid chest position.
Wind Filter - DC = On   High Pass = On   HPF2 Cutoff Hz = 130  takes care of breathy bursts ok for me.

Headphone monitoring works fine, best to use a headphone amp such as something portable in the Fiio range.

General Help Q&A / 3x crop mode - 7D mk1
October 05, 2017, 12:40:38 AM
Hi, I'm new to this forum and 7Dmk1 (long time 600d/ML user).
On the 600D there is a 'crop mode' activating a 3x zoom @1920x1080 in the std Canon menu.
I'm told the 7D mk1 can achieve this using ML - if so could someone kindly lead me through the steps to enable this feature please?

Thanks, Its
