  • Sony HDV camera using DV SP footage into FCP 4.5????

    Posted by Andrew on June 4, 2005 at 6:26 am

    Hey there,
    Is Final cut pro 4.5 able to capture DV SP footage from a Sony HVR-Z1E/Z1P camera?
    Having trouble making it see the camera? What should I my camera settings be?
    Cheers

    First disconnect the camera and than enable HDV>DV conversion in the camera menu. (I don’t have the exact name, but it should be clear)

    Thanks for that.
    What about HDV footage? Can only FCP 5 do it?
    Cheers

    Yes. Only FCP5 can do HDV.

    There is an option though to capture DVCPRO HD via external hardware.
