  Editing HDSLR – Pick-up shoot in HDV – 1080p and space ?

  Posted by Rosie Walunas on June 11, 2012 at 7:25 pm

  I’m editing HDSLR video footage at 1920×1080 at 29.97fps, ProRes.

  I’m doing a pick up shoot using my friend’s Sony HXR-NX5U.

  I see listed on B&H these shooting formats:

  AVCHD FX (24Mbps) 1920 x 1080/60i
  AVCHD FH (17Mbps) 1920 x 1080/60i
  AVCHD HQ (9Mbps) 1440 x 1080/60i
  AVCHD LP (5Mbps) 1440 x 1080/60i
  AVCHD FX (24Mbps) 1920 x 1080/24p
  AVCHD FH (17Mbps) 1920 x 1080/24p
  AVCHD FX (24Mbps) 1920 x 1080/30p
  AVCHD FH (17Mbps) 1920 x 1080/30p

  Should the new footage be shot at:
  AVCHD FX (24Mbps) 1920 x 1080/30p
  or
  AVCHD FH (17Mbps) 1920 x 1080/30p

  My guess is that “AVCHD FX (24Mbps) 1920 x 1080/30p” would be the way to go.

  Please let me know if this is correct, and anything else that should be considered.

  At this rate / setting – how many hours of footage could I record at once on to the camera? This I need to know just as much because I expect to shoot 3-4 hours of material.

  Thank you kindly.
