Always something. Here I shot 5 clips and all of them drop audio about 1/2 way through the clip. This is the Ursa Mini Broadcast G2 using internal microphones. Any ideas? See attached:

Found it! I'm an idiot. Somehow I pressed the HFR button. Probably searching for the F2 button. Clips were videoed in 60fps. Didn't notice it on the first shot because it was not moving. Second shot people are walking like they're on vallum.

Yeah you shot slow motion.

It records the audio real time so it always makes people think the clip is missing.

That button is not placed very well, you are not the first one.

Chalk it up to a learning experience. Nothing I can’t do over. Turned out I didn’t bring enough lenses to get everything I wanted to anyway. The only parking spot I could find was 15 minutes only. Better next time :D
