Ok. I'm asking another question.
There's a bunch of new cameras now coming out and many of the nice ones no longer use tape. The storage is either in the HDD or in CF/SD/MS or whatever. I believe...

Does Vegas support the EX1?
Does Sony Vegas support editing the files from the upcoming EX1 camera?
If not, are there workarounds like conversions or the use of cineform or something of the kind?
Thanks!

Yes, I have been doing that for almost 2 years. It works. For simple edits, usually with 2 sources, maybe 3, and the edit is basically linear, one instance will do. But if you are doing what you...

A viable option
I agree with Adam. Though an FX1 or some other camera would be better, this is a viable option. Better than using the hc3 or hc7, though they are good 2nd cams or B cams themselves for the price.
