I have EX-1 and both Canon DSLR's, 5D and 7D.
The Canon's need to be converted. The 5D conformed from 30p to 29.97
and then to 24p for some projects. So I have original footage, Conformed 29.97 footage, and as I said some of that gets converted to 24p. So that's three versions of the same file.
Question is? What do I keep and back up? Original footage? Or converted.
If I don't really have this straight I'd love to hear strategies for conversion and backup.
