can vegas 7 capture hdv footage from sony hdr -hc3

[Jerry Waters]

Yes, it can. I do a lot of hdv footage and use Connect HD from Cineform. That program will capture, convert to a good editable avi and scene detect. You can download a trial.

Vegas 7 will also capture straight to m2t AND scene detect. Scene detection of HDV is one of the new features of Vegas 7.

thanx guys.

I have another related question. i.e the hd ouput from the dv hdhc3 is interlaced and not progressive, am I right?

I am used to using the standard dv from jvc dv2000 and it has a progressive output straight from the camera.

if it is interlaced , is there anyway I can get deinterlaced progressive frames on the time line?

thanx

Standard DV is also interlaced.
