    I use Camtasia all the time. It works great.

    I usually capture in a higher resolution than the final output so I have the option of “pan, scan and zoom” within AE later.

    I haven’t noticed the files to be overly large, but I think the quality is pretty good. It sure beats shooting the screen!

    Happily, you can save the lens shading informtaion on an SD card for each lens you rent or own. Changing this setting after swapping lenses takes less than ten seconds. I think this approach really opens up your choices.

    I use “Get busy!”

    My operator responds, “Busy!”

    Hi Bill-

    Yes, I have a HPX500 and thought I was experiencing the same green/yellow shift you are experiencing. I was also posting on the other forum as mentioned above. I am using the Fujinon 17x kit lens.

    My problem really boiled down to two main issues. The first was incorrectly setting the lens shading as described on pages 92-94 of the manual. If you leave it on the default, or do the shading incorrectly as I did, you can get seriously ugly results.

    The second issue was totally unrelated to the camera, although at first I jumped incorrectly to that conclusion. It had to do with a newly aquired first generation LCD production monitor and the angle of view.

    Once I got the shading straightened out, the colors were spot on. Another new owner decided to shift the chroma phase to +2, but that is more of a tweak than large scale adjustment. Lens shading straightened out his green results as well.

    I hope this helps.

    Shawn-

    I’m glad this card and reader worked out. As card sizes increase, and the need to offload cards in the field decreases, having a solution right on your editing workstation to go from P2 to NLE (and I’m not talking about external firewire), makes all the sense in the world.

    As I understand it, the slot for the card reader is on the front panel of the workstation, not behind the computer. Can you comment on build quality how this card/reader changes the way you think about workflow? Thanks.

    Since you mentioned that you are using PCs, you might look at Novastor backup software. It allows you to span discs on any backup session. It’s dreop dead reliable. I’ve used it with tape, disc, and DVDs for years.

    Look about a third down the page. This company claims it reads P2 cards.

    Good luck.
