  SxS card – XDCAM Transfer equivalent for XQD cards?

  Hi one and all,

  Does anyone know if there is a SxS card – XDCAM Transfer equivalent for XQD cards?

  I used two cameras at work a PMW-300 (I think) and a PXW-FS7. Both and good cameras with pros and cons. The biggest negative of the FS7 for me and the team I work with is the large .XML file it creates.

  With the PMW-300 we import the card’s data through XDCAM Transfer and it creates a neat .mov file. The import process is really fast and being an .mov it allows us to preview the file easily using Finder which I like (we are using the Mac OS).

  I’ve looked around online to find a comparable solution for the XQD card but have had no luck.

  Does anyone know if such a program exists? Or if there is another workflow solution that will do the job.

  My team and I currently use the Adobe suite. I’ve thought about using Media Encoder but don’t see that as a workable solution given the time it would take to Media Encoder to encode the footage.

  Thanks in advance…
