Luna Ultra - is Low light enhancement identical to PureVideo?

Hi, I can't seem to figure this out. While in standard video mode, if the starting scene is dark there's the "Low light enhancement" pop-up which brightens everything. Is this basically switching to the PureVideo mode?

And related question: if I start a video in a bright scene then enter a dark room, will the Low light enhancement trigger? Is it based only on the start time of the video and stays on until the end, or can it adapt afterwards only for certain parts of the video?

Thanks!

ISO MAX serious bug - Manual setting affects Auto

When in M (manual) mode if you switch the ISO to a MAX value, it will carry over to Auto mode.

To reproduce: go M and set ISO to Auto-400MAX, then switch back the main setup to Auto. From now on Auto will always be 400 ISO, as dark as if you switch back to M.

This is on my Go Ultra. Not sure if it happens on other models, currently I'm waiting for my Luna Ultra to arrive.

Please try to get this bug fixed... I was wondering why most of my videos look darker than usual on Auto in low-light, it was due to having a low ISO MAX value in Manual mode which I set and forgot about.

Thanks!

Edit: am on the latest firmware 1.6.25.
Short video of the issue: https://imgur.com/vzs59bf - check the corner of the desk in white, it disappears on 400MAX both on Manual and Auto (bug), it reappears on Auto only when resetting Manual mode to Auto ISO.

Can the Mic Pro be attached to Luna Ultra directly?

I'm usually recording without voice so there's no need to have it clipped on, I'd rather maximize ambient sounds.

Also regarding wind reduction, is the Mic Pro more efficient vs Luna Ultra's own Wind Guard foam?
Does it even make sense to purchase if mainly recording no-voice environment?

Can't seem to find this info in the reviews I've seen. Thanks!

If STRC goes back to 100$ mid-month as usual, it passes a great test

Pretty horrible market conditions now just 10 days before ex-div date, AI stocks getting crushed after the huge run, I see QQQ having its worst day of the year, all putting additional pressure on crypto which was already oversold.

If we still get STRC pegged to 100$ mid-June I will be very confident in it going forward, bad market conditions like this for BTC are pretty rare.

Go Ultra - anyone else use 50fps as the optimal setup?

Hi, in Europe we need to use 50Hz to avoid flickering in low-light, and my understanding is the FPS is required to be a submultiple of it for best quality, which means 50 or 25 fps.

This makes 60fps not practical here. But a great plus is that 50fps has "Active HDR" whereas 60fps does not.

So to me this means 50fps with Jitter Blur Reduction and HDR is the best possible setting for this camera.

Otherwise decrease to 25fps which is too low for my taste, as I prefer smooth videos.

Or is it something I am missing? I just received mine and trying to optimize the settings.
