Hi Guys,

(My first post so let me know if i've left any obvious info out)

I have a Sony Handycam DCR-SR72E currently editing with adobe premiere elements (i know i know...full version is on its way). I am attempting to record a friends band during their rehearsals but am having difficulties. It will record for about 20-30 secs then it will stop, a message appears saying "buffering overflow" then "recovering data" it will then be ready to start recording again.

The audio that i do capture, when viewed on my editing program, is very 'hissy' and 'tinny' and there also doesn't appear to be a lot of data there (judging by the lack of any 'waves')

Is what i'm recording too loud for the internal mic on this camera? and is there a way to record loud music at close quaters with this camera?

thanks for your help
Ian
