  connecting hpx250 to mac

  Posted by Emmanuel Suys on October 12, 2014 at 2:44 pm

  Greetings,

  Since 2 Hrs I am trying to connect my HPX250 to my mac to download my P2 footage. To no avail. Everything was working fine a few weeks ago. My camera does not communicate with my mac.
  Am I forgetting something? Camera connected via USB2 cable. Camera system set to USB device. When camera switched on, I switch to Thumbnail mode. Thumbnails appear on Monitor. Set the Power Mode switch to PB/THumbnail. Nothing happens. Have reinstalled P2 driver. To no avail. I don’t think I am doing anything wrong, or am I overlooking sthg. Need to urgently download as shooting soon again.

  Cheers for any help.

  Also checked my USB2 cable, it works with other devices. So don’t think it is a cable issue.

  Just for info.

  Cheers

  Greetings,

  So I guess this is what happens when one is tired and working with to many different cameras and systems! I have to press the user2 switch when setting it in pc/thumbnail modus. However it would be nice if Panasonic would at leat put this in the manual!!! As the manual is still describing the procedure before the firmware update of 2013!

  Anyway everything back to normal.

  Cheers

  The manual is very descriptive in explaining how to mount a P2 card.
