XL1: No tape = NO D2D recording
I sort of don't get it.
Apart from saving A LOT of time in post, why should one use it? The argument of no tear and wear of the tape mechanism is not standing. My XL1 goes in "stand by/sleep mode" pretty soon after a period of non activity of the tape mechanism. So in order to record direct to disk I HAVE to start and stop the camera with a tape inserted and running. The Sony PD150 seems to stay active for hours, so I can see a possibility of recording direct to disk without the tape running. Is there a solution to make the XL1 stay alive for a long time?

Ejecting the tape allows the XL1 to remain on indefinitely while in camera mode. Hope that helps, Matt McEwen |

aside from taking the tape out, if I'm not mistaken, you can also activate VCR shutdown to keep your camera awake... |
