Hi Jason,
Randy is correct in saying that the AVCHD files have to be converted to Edius HQ. A quad core will convert four files at a time. I have a quad core 2.33 with 4 gb of RAM. It takes about...

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your kind words.
Generally speaking, I would go with XP. I know very little about Macs. I don't like to render, so I have stayed with Edius.
For a PC laptop, I would go...

I don't shoot "serious" architectural interiors or cityscapes. My brides don't seem to be bothered by the barrel distortion, infact they pay quite well.
Do you have an HMC150 and if so,...

Hi Dror,
When choosing between the FX1000 and HMC150, the HMC has XLR inputs, which are a big deal for me. Another advantage of the HMC150 over both the FX1000 and Z5 is CCDs. The FX1000/Z5 use...
