    My client wants to provide me with a product like quick stream? Is there other products out there? Does it work well? We edit on a FCP system, so we’d like it to be compatible. What are your thoughts on Quick Stream or any similar products?

    I’d stick with tapes. I’ve yet to see a Hard drive recorder for DV that I would rely on 100%.

    I’ve used a QuickStream several times with my 100A. It doesn’t work consistently. There’s a particular cadence you need to go through when powering it and the camera, and my experience has been that when the camera is powered down, or even goes into standby, it loses communication with the drive. You need to keep your eye on the drive constantly.

    I’m about to go into a series of road jobs where we’re relying on using it. I’m about to buy a 100B, and hopefully it will work more consistently with that camera.
