I've posted before that I'm researching my new camera choice, and leaning towards the XLH1. I still have a couple of unanswered questions about the work flow.
1- Right now I shoot with an XL2, and cature with an FS 4 hard drive (sometimes).
2- We just up graded to P Pro 2.0.
Here's wht i've learned about the XLH1-
1-I can only capture to the FS 4 in 60i. (from what I read here). Apparentely, firestore doesn't support 24f yet .
2-If I shoot in 60i, I can capture to the FS 4 while shooting hdv. But unlike the Sony Z1 ( Also posted here), I can't simultaneously shoot in hdv and capture downconverted sd to the firestore FS4. Does anyone know if this is definately the case?
So what do I do if I want to cut footage with a second sd camera,and edit in sd, but want to shoot in hdv on the XLH1? (I figured out that you can't mix sd and hdv footage on the same timeline...DUH).
In P Pro 2.0 we didn't have any problems with the Z1 footage. Hopefully someone here is using P Pro with the XLH1.
Thanks for any help
