Thanks for the reply, Sareesh.
The C100s were recommended to me due to their lower rental costs ($375 for 4 days as opposed to $896 for the C300). I agree that it would be much easier and simpler to use the C300. I suppose I can tell the client that we won’t have to get the HDMI to SDI converters, so that would save some cash, but not enough to make up the rental differences.
The client wants the director’s cut to be done in real time so they have a basis for edits to start the next day.
