P2 HVX200 slow motion (60P) not importing into FCP X

Anyone have this problem re-occur? I am on 10.0.5 now and FCPX will not import footage direst from my p2 in 60p.

Hi Darren.
I was having quite a problem with this until the update. I now have 10.0.6 and just tried it a few minutes ago and it works great. The problem that I’ve had in the past is that it was erratic, meaning that it would upload some of the slow motion files, and then just freeze up on some of the others. What I did for a work-around was take it into my other tower and do a log and transfer in 7. I haven’t used legacy since X came out. I was pretty much with everyone else about X in the beginning, but like Ken Stone, realized that it was either accept X, or go to another system. I’m really glad I decided to stay with X from the beginning now. I’m doing a golf video tomorrow where I’ll be doing a lot of slow motion (HVX200 w/P2) with 2 cameras. I’ll let you know if I run into any problems.

warmly,
