Re: Realistic card options with the PXW-Z280?
Points well taken, all. Just saying there are potentially more economical ways to shoot, particularly if you're in need of a larger studio config style monitor for following presenters around a stage...

Re: Realistic card options with the PXW-Z280?
Quality-wise, I see less of an argument for going with ProRes files. But, ironically, workflow-wise, perhaps more of an argument can be made, depending on the nature of the shoot, of course.
If...

Re: software update
Doubtful... What probably happened was that when you installed the new version of Catalyst Browse, it installed the newer codec, which is now available to Vegas. In any case, good news!

Re: software update
Vegas Pro is on version 15. Perhaps you just need to upgrade? I don't use Vegas, so I couldn't tell you, but there seems to be a fair bit of chatter about this issue on Google - check around.

Re: software update
I'd be surprised if it does. The software predates that format. They don't update it, because people don't need it anymore.

Re: software update
With the file structure in XAVC S, you don't need to bridge any clips - everything is together in a single MP4 file from when you hit start to when you hit stop. So, just use the raw files, and...

Re: HXR-NX3 HDMI out format
Earlier Blackmagic ATEM hardware needs interlaced signals all conformed to the same format (60i in our case), so while we have the cameras set to roll ISO to their own media cards in native...

Re: software update
The camera is always 8-bit. The HDMI output is uncompressed 4:2:2 8-bit. The internal codecs are always 4:2:0 8-bit.

Re: Anyone use these new circular Genaray LEDs?
I gave up on the lights altogether. Their power supplies are super-flaky, and after I lost the third one (with gentle handling), I realized they just aren't professional grade.
That, of course,...

Re: NX3 Picture Profiles
Those are helpful, but the FS5 is even further removed than the FS100, the camera for which custom profiles are readily available online that I have been using as a jumping off point for the NX3's...

Re: software update
The XAVC S codec records at 50 Mb (Megabits)/sec. The FX quality AVCHD codec records at 24 Mb/sec. So, it's just slightly more than twice the bitrate, and so that's borne out in the number of...

Re: software update
I did the update yesterday, and it went well. You have to update without a card in the camera, which is something not immediately obvious in the instructions. You also can't update when powering...

Bo (and anyone else who has bought these), how are you carrying them around? They seem an odd shape, and would make for a difficult arrangement in a manageable case. I'd love to be able to throw...
