I took my Hx9v to Mexico for U2, it was basically the 1st time I used it.
scene was set to 'snow' and EV to -2.0 night 1 and -1.7 night 3
"Snow" eh? Interesting. I use "spotlight" on my Sony HDR-CX520v. For my Lumix zs3 I couldn't figure out what would be a comparable setting so I usually just run it on auto. However, this still does occasionally blow out the heads. Now that you've mentioned it, I can see how "snow" would give similar results as "spotlight," making the brightest points normal white instead of over exposed. Gotta try it next time.
Nice work on the U2!
