AVC Intra 100 vs. ProResHQ at DVinfo.net

Peter Richardson · January 19th, 2010, 07:22 PM

Hey guys,

I have a project that was mostly shot on the Varicam in AVCIntra. The files have all been imported into FCP 6 at ProRes HQ. My question: Now that there is native support for AVCINtra in Final Cut 7, would I see a quality difference if I re-imported all the AVCIntra material in native format, instead of ProRes?

Thanks!

Peter

Dont know about quality but the re-wrapping in FCP 7 is a lot quicker than the transcoding in FCP 6. Once the AVC is on the timeline it is set at pro res HQ in v7 so I would imagine its the same.
