Rather Urgent: Kona 2 and HDV set up.
Working on a project shot on Sony Z1U HDV camera in HDV 1080i/50i.
Have Kona-2, FCP5HD, SATA Raid, HD Monitors, and AJA HD10A analog to component HD converter if needed.
Final product will be NTSC SD.
Camera is video source for Kona-2…So should I use the firewire or HD analong outs using converter?
What should my FCP easy set up be? …and how should I configure the Kona-2 control panel for this particular project?
Any workflow tips greatly appreciated…thanks!

Just went through this debacle this weekend.
HDV is sluggish and a bit of pain in general…
Rendering takes almost three times as longer than DVCPROHD.
However, i must say it doesn’t look terrible and it plays out through the Kona pretty well.
When finished cutting we laid it out in real time to HDCAM, easy.I never could figure out how to edit back to HDV tape tho… (not like i needed too, but that was annoying)
Looking back, id like not to have to work in that format again in the future (unless it gets converted/new master tapes prior to editing).
