I'm a new owner of my Z7 and I've been playing around with the slow motion feature.

Here's a raw clip of my daughter's crazy hair.

This has been captured in HDV mode and when placed on a FCP timeline and played out through my G5's BlackMagic SP card, looks like very useable SD footage.

I've tried down converting in the camera and the footage is pretty similar. However, when I tried in DVCAM mode, there seemed to be a degradation.

Any similar experiences people?
