To the original author Kevin – sorry I did not register your name when I initially replied. Good to see you here on the COW.

Sorry for the slight off topic reply, but I just posted a question about surgical procedures and forgot to mention that I’ll be shooting in HDV and with an EZFX Junior Jib. Same procedure, sinuses Any suggestions or a link to view Greg’s videos? Thanks

The last time I did ENT surgery, we were able to get great video from the scope. The monitor had BNC outs, which we hooked up a deck and recorded along with 2 cameras.
Even if you bought a DVD recorder from walmart, its a small cost and provides a great look.Tech-T Productions

Great suggestion Terry, but I’m shooting HDV and probably recording to a laptop using On-location. I’ll be situated whet I can film both monitors…you just gave me an idea though, if I did record the actual scope, I could do PIP. I have a Sony DVCam deck, but DV is lower field and HDV upper…am I asking for trouble? Thank you Terry

Are you talking about doing a PIP live? Or are you thinking about doing it in post?
I guess if you were doing it live, the mixer should time the two components and would be fine.
If you do it in post, simply convert one of the formats to the other before editing. (or both – as I often like to transcode to ProRes)Tech-T Productions

In post using Premiere on PC with Matrox card. I guess I could capture using component into an Hdv project and then it should be compatible. Jeff

Greg Ondeira and Mike Cohen are the surgical video experts here – I’m just learning. The only suggestions I have are be on good speaking terms with everyone in the room before everyone starts donning masks and the person requesting the vid needs to make sure everyone is on board with the shoot so you can ask/suggest things to make the shoot worthwhile. And don’t drop anything in the patient.

I agree 100%, which is why I went down there last week. The Surgical manager is very accommodating, he’s even going to have the scope manufacturer on premises when I set up to make the scope feed into my deck is working correctly. Communication is key. Thanks.
