    The Kona 3 does not do this. No capture card does this. For this you need compositing software, and someone who knows how to use it.

    [Nhan Nguyen Dinh] “- Can Kona 3 fix that green bacground ?”

    Apple Color can fix the green screen.

    For the actual keying, Motion has a better green screen keyer built in than FCP. Or you can download something like Primatte from Red Giant Software.

    Hi Walter,
    Following your advice, I have watched the very good Primatt tutorial which convinces me much.
    May I ask you your opinion about this :
    Before posting on Creative Cow, I visited the website of PHYX Keyer, I copy this Website about the functions comparison of Phyx Keyer with Primatte, Ultimatte, Keylight, DVmatt
    https://www.phyxware.com/NI_Keyer_comparison.html
    As you see, watching that comparison board (made by PHYX !) Phyx Keyer is the best of the best (price, functions etc…)
    But PHYX show only a very superficial Tutorial and I did’nt discover anything new.

    About Primatte demonstration, Primatte have great quality, great number of very good functions if really PHYX is FAR superior than Primat with less than half price, PHYX will occupy exclusivly the Keyer market ?
    Waiting for your opinion
    Nhan
