25F is a completely different world. It's just there without "pulldown" in a 50i stream.

Yup. I made an extremely simple menu. I am by no means a guru in that program however.

You can get pretty good HD at current DVD bit rates using h.264. MPEG2 required a much higher...

Yeah George. We'll have to do that! Hopefully the Best Buy near you has it hooked up to the Westinghouse. If the Toshiba's hooked up to a 720p projection TV it's doing the product a disservice.

It looks like a great recording device. My only quibble is it doesn't seem to be all that portable/field friendly. I would want my SDI recording device to be more Firestore-like in form otherwise...

Glad to help. Just wanted to let people know that you can do an HD-DVD right now. I just had to verify it for myself by playing it in an actual shipping consumer player, not just the computer.

I just used the DVD burner in my dual 2.7 G5. (Sony?) Used a memorex 4.7 DVD-R disc, (8X rated speed) and DVDSP4 did the rest with a 3 min. edited 24F piece.

The compression chain was this:

TC will need to be converted from TC out BNC connector, most likely to RS-422 into the HDCAM deck. I haven't ever used one of these adapters before, but I have, as cheesy as it sounds, been able to...

Were you using NR1 or NR2? These increase banding signifigantly, especially with gain on. I've found +12 db...

Greg,

Forgot to say, but if you want the easiest, high quality workflow for 24F HDV, you might want to consider the Cineform/Premiere Pro option. http://www.cineform.com/press/rel-CanonXLH1.htm

For sure. The H1's resolution and color space will really help the image when transferred to film. We're talking a 1.5 million pixel frame vs. a 400K frame. (1440x1080 vs. 854x480...the recording...

I'm guessing the MacBook can handle it, but it'll still be the same old limitations.

I'm not sure about the Avid, but my guess is it is even less flexible than FCP when it comes to workarounds. I...

I don't recommend HDV native editing at all. If you like to color-correct and composite, it's just a HARSH pass of compression to footage that is already MASSIVELY compressed technically. If you do...

Firewire from the Canon will be incompatible. If your 1200a has HD-SDI input it'll work fine if you go that route.

Well said, Chris. It is amazing, and either as a filmmaking tool or an HD camera head, getting quality HD-SDI from a sub-$10K camera is pretty much insane. I agree that it's not really a big deal...
