Handing footage over to Avid editor?

I am shooting something tomorrow for The History Channel and the editors are using Avid. I use FCP, and have yet to deliver XDCAM EX footage for Avid, but am wondering what the steps are for that. ...

Robert,
You are a genius. Thanks.

If I am playing a QT file on a computer that does not have FCP will it look washed out?

Why do QT videos look so low contrast?

When I look at a video file in FCP and then view it straight in Quicktime, the QT viewer looks very low contrast and low saturation. This is on my newer Mac Pro on Dell monitors. On my MacBook Pro,...

It's pretty hilarious though. I was shocked when my cam came back from Sony and Fed Ex left it on my doorstep. I was home, so I heard when they rang the bell but the Fed Ex guy was back in his...

Again, I doubt Sony has any interest in switching out viewfinders. Probably the only real option it to buy a Z7 and get someone to replace the viewfinders. These are not ENG cams with removable...

Mine is an 8, and it may be beefier than the current 6 (although they look they same). Used it with EX-1 and Brevis and Letus and JVCHD100 with Brevis, so fairly big loads.

My guess is that Sony would not want to start treating their EX-1s as lego-type designs, switching parts out with their other models. They create a better model and want to sell it to us, rather...

I don't think it works that way. I think it is always 35mb/s when in that mode (I guess because of the VBR it can go up to about 38 I have heard, but that is it). But maybe I am not understanding,...
