    Using SonyHDV camera as converter from FCP to NTSC (or HDTV)??

    Posted by Ben Ged low on August 21, 2006 at 5:12 pm

    I’ve heard conflicting rumours. Can I use my SonyHDV camera to act as a throughput (as I once did with the PD150) to output my clip or sequence to an NTSC (or HD?) monitor?

    I haven’t found a way yet.

    Hope this helps-

    You might be able to do that but why would you put that many hours on your camera?

    The answer is a definite NO.

    This question comes up weekly at the moment!

    Thank you Steve,

    I suspected as much. I’m off to check out the Decklink and AJA Kona cards.

    Much appreciated.

    Hi Steve,

    I got a $45 DVI adaptor … DVI out to consumer HD. Plugged it into a Toshiba consumer HD. Works just fine. I have to sacrifice an LCD screen, but I can at least be sure what the final output is going to look like on a consumer HD TV.
