Every day on this topic only hdr, raw, dual iso etc.... bla-bla-bla. I never see the any useful real video with this features from that guys
WHEN audio meter comes to 650D?!!!! looks like NEVER((((( its a terrible disappointment for me (((
Sell your 650D body, buy a 550D, stop complaining. Doesn't have to be in that order. If audio is so important that you come on every week or so to complain about it not being implemented, fix the problem yourself. Become a dev or buy a new camera.
Just because you don't think a feature is important doesn't mean that no one thinks it is important. For what I do, I don't care about audio. I'd prefer there not even be audio because I just have to remove it from every clip.
The audio problem is much bigger than you think. The devs aren't just holding it back for fun. If I understand it right, the audio chip for the 650D & EOSM work completely differently from previous cameras. Not just a different chip, but the code interfaces with it differently. For the non-developer, that means it is a huge departure in how things are done. It is not just finding out where the different registers are located, but what to shove into those registers to make things work. There is work being done on audio, but it is not a simple problem as you seem to suggest.
Nobody really cares if you are terribly disappointed that a free product hasn't implemented the one feature you care about. There are others who want this feature as well and they also state their desire for this feature without the dramatic complaining.
Yes, I'm in a bad mood today.
