Ok, I ripped the right arm off by opening the 3046 legs (with the crank) and the arm got caught on the legs as I yanked on them....pow! Off went that arm. So sickened, I picked up some nice 3192...

Of course a Mac w/o CSX or FCPX is what to me? iMovie really, really has some serious potential...but it's the apps, not the OS that would keep me from upgrading. So while I'm kind of excited about...

I would say nothing a little better white balance and exposure wouldn't take care of. I wouldn't classify this as a TC3 thing.


Focus and exposure are tighter here, so it looks better.

FCP 6 ROCKS for P2 import

3 words. Log and Transfer.

Never you mind P2 Log or anything else. FCP 6 has a sweet interface for all the P2 footage that gets dumped onto a drive. Just copy the entire "card1" or "card2"...

Set pre-roll to 1 sec.

Eric, try a test on a capture after you change your "preroll/post roll" prefs to 1 sec. You will still experience the loss of a second or so at each clip, but it does help.

I'm not sure about the...
