  • Sony SRW-1 HDCam deck compatible with FCP?

    Posted by Arielle Amsalem on April 4, 2007 at 2:46 pm

    I am looking into the possibility of shooting with a Panavision Genesis camera in HDCam format. I would like to edit on FCP 5.1.4 on a Intel chip mac pro with a ATY,RadeonX1900 graphics card. Panavision recommends using the Sony SRW-1 VTR with this camera, will that be compatible?

    Thanks.

    What capture card are you using? If you are using AJA products, then only the Kona 2 or 3 will accept this machine.

    What capture card is your FCP using ?
    Are you going to edit at a lower resolution or in full HD res ?
    The SRW1 has HD SDI dual link in/out,monitor out HD SDI and SD SDI video,plus HD and SD sync inputs,so you could take an SD downconvert in to FCP.I’m not sure if the SRW1 requires any optional boards to do this.Beware of complications if the SD downconvert is of 23.98 material.
