    Hi out there

    did my first testings, everything went smooth. To me, the best is to import the files via camera directly into FCP5. If you copy the whole harddisc from the camera, all files are locked, so you have to unlock each first, before you can delete them. There are a lot of files to unlock first. The new tiger works smooth, so does the new production suite. If you have old projects in FCP don’t import them in the new 5.0. A lot of rendering has to be redone, and it takes a lot of time. At the moment I’ve got still the two systems running (FCP4.5 with 10.8 on one HD, FCP5, Tiger 4.1 and the new production suite on another HD) If I work on an old project I restart with Panther.

    Good luck to all of you

    Rainer

    I had asked one of the Panasonic reps at Cinegear if the footage captured in 24p mode both as 720 and 1080 would be at be at 24(23.98) fps minus the 2-3. I was told that if capturing at 720 it would be, but not at 1080. 1080 footage would have 2-3 in it and would have to go through the NLE or some other software to remove it.

    This is unfortunate if you have a lot of clips that need the 2-3 removed. It wastes both time and storage space.

    Maybe this will be resolved before the production camera ships or will be corrected in a future revision.
