Re: Creating DNxHD master for later exports? Is this any good?

I always export & save a master of the final project in a high quality, "lossless", codec like Cineform, or DNxHD at the highest settings.
Future transcodes from the master file are theoretically...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

I'm wondering if that's not a typo
It says " XLR Handle Unit with Micropone"
Maybe supposed to say "microphone holder"
Also, they list the part/model number for every other included item, but say...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

It seems to me to be a little like comparing apples with oranges.
I think of the EX-1 as a full-on professional camera with a massive feature set, a highly regarded lens, true manual focus, and etc....

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

In fact, I have been waiting patiently for a replacement for my XA20- the X70 definitely solves that problem.
It's going to be brutal competition for Canon

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

I think you are correct, the 4K upgrade issue has to do with the XAVC codec:
The AX100 uses XAVC-S which I understand to be 8 bit, 4:2:0, long GOP.
I've read that the plan for the X70 is to...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

If the past is any predictor, I ordered a Sony RX100 III as soon as it was available for preorder @ B&H.
The camera was shipped around 4 weeks later.
I'm thinking middle of September is probably a...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

One of the video reports I saw- I think it was one of Alister Chapman's- specifically mentioned that the X70 definitely has the touch focus/exposure feature.
IMO that is a super useful feature- even...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

I notice that the camera is now available for preorder at B&H for Sept delivery @ $2,299.00.
Seems like an attractive price for such a feature rich camera

Re: Frustrated with XA20

I read that as well, but Sony could certainly decide otherwise once the cam is released.

I have hung on to my XA 20 because of the lack of an alternative in terms of size & functionality- particularly as far as the Sony line-up goes.
It looks like that is about to change with the soon...

Re: Go Pro Studio Install for Premiere CC 2014

I uninstalled PPro CC 2014, redownloaded & reinstalled.
There is still no 8.0 folder in the plugins pathway.

Re: Go Pro Studio Install for Premiere CC 2014

Ann
I find C://Program Files/Adobe/Common/plugins/
but there is no 8.0, only CS6 and 7.0.
Did my Premiere CC 2014 not install correctly??

As has been stated by others, the problem is intermittent and not easily predictable except that it is almost exclusively in artificial, indoor lighting.

Exactly my experience:

at X200K- too Blue
at X400K- a green cast, of all things
Very strange...
Again, I don't recall ever having this problem with the XA 10

I find the control wheel on the front (XA 20) to be slightly more ergonomic than the wheel on the back (XA 10), but neither are really a natural for constant adjustment- particularly when hand held.
