I'm looking for info on the legendary DX1 NV, in particular:
- The manual setting options does it have? (hide / gain, shutter)?
- 16:9 - gecroppt (ie, resolution loss) or native?
- White footage, or even someone with the short films were realized DX1?
- Any screenshots / Grabs low light footage from somewhere?
- Class would of course also a manual in PDF format.

I am also on the lookout for a NV-DX1-manual. The information that the NV-DX1 identical with the AG-EZ1 has brought me the following solution. Panasonic offers "http://service.us.panasonic.com/OperMan/? Manuals.
