AspectHD, what’s the point now!
Okay,
I just bought AspectHD to use with my HVX200 P2
clips. Then today I see that Adobe now natively
supports P2 files in Premiere Pro CS3(which I have).
So my questions is, did I just blow $500 or is there
still something AspectHD is useful for. Dang…..
I don’t even have my P2 card to go with the camera
yet and I feel like I’ve mis-spent $500…
Oh well that technology isn’t it.Thanks for all comments.

You didn’t get had. I’m a big supporter of Cineform – going from HD Connect (Vegas) to Aspect and now Prospect. Cineform rewrites the preview engine of Premiere and it will run their codec in real time – not just one track but several. This is huge if you ever tried running HD footage in Vegas. That alone would be worth the money.
But the other thing is that Cineform is an editable codec that withstands multiple renders virtually lossless. (Read the website.)
I started with Cineform 2 years ago. I don’t plan on going to anything else in the foreseeable future.

Jerry,
Whew… I thought I had gotten suckered. 🙂 No really
I just didn’t want to purchase anything that I didn’t
need. But after re-examining why I purchased AspectHD
in the first place and understanding when Adobe is
offering you are right. AspectHD will really help with
the HD workflow. I especially like the multiple layers
of HD content in real-time.Thanks for your post. Now can if I just get my P2
card!!!MBW
