  AG-HMC150P vs FCP

  Posted by Greg April on August 30, 2010 at 8:16 pm

  Hello all,

  I work at a college and we have 6 fresh out of the box Panasonic AG-HMC150P cameras, each has an 8Gig SD card. Our post area is using Final Cut Studio 3. The question that I have is what is the recommended camera record format and FCP ingest codec to go with it? I wish that we had more time to play around but the students come back tomorrow!

  Any help on this that I can get will be a big help! thanks

  You don’t have much choice as the AG-HMC150P records in AVCHD. The best editing codec for FCP is Pro Res, you shouldn’t need to worry about ProRes HQ as AVCHD maxes out at 24Mbps.
