Since I still didn't get my DN-60 I contacted Datavideo Europe. They promised me that the DN-60 is to be delivered from the end of March.

Kees, have you got your DN 60 yet and if so, any views on it?

When filming on tape, you've got the perfect back-up, for once and forever. Whatever goes wrong during you're editing process, the tape is still there as fall back. Even AFTER YEARS !!!

It may be more expensive, but I still prefer to have "hard media" in place instead of files, wandering around on systems. One glitch destroys them all.

In a purely digital workflow, you have to rely on the back-ups of your system. Assuming you make them frequently - any back-up ANY backup might bring you something back you didn't expect.

We should always keep in mind the potential for external HD's to crash as they have for me twice.
