I have been remiss in not thanking those who responded to my questions.
I am working successfully with my Panasonic 250 and the Firestore FS-100 thanks to the postings by the responders.

Many, many thanks to all.

I am successfully downloading from the P2 cards to my MacBookPro and working with FCP. I have also downloaded from the Firestore device and checked out the files in FCP. This is just my backup original, so I merely need to be sure it works.

As I mentioned in the earlier post, after executing Organize P2 on the Firestore, there are other files on the disk than the directory and lastshot file that FCP wants. I haven’t looked at them; there’s just some other stuff that I didn’t download and who’s absence didn’t affect the ability of FCP to work with the directory and lastshot file.

Again, many thanks.

I Like The Camera. It’s a treat going from a 100B using standard DV to such nice, high-quality High-Definition images.

I haven’t gone beyond a single layer DVD, yet, but will be looking at alternatives. My clients don’t need this yet, but I’ll check it out.

Again, Many Thanks, and best to all, Bill Parsons

Jim, thanks a million. I especially like the explanation of the 2 usb modes.
I had found some of this — and was hooked up with usb based on the ref manual — and then I got blown away by the manual where it says the usb driver on the cd-rom is for windoze.

I looked at my first DV this morning and it’s not brilliant but has g-r-e-a-t definition.

Again, many thanks. I’m going to watch the video link shortly.

I’m off to sync up my Firestore disk now.

Best regards and much much gratitude.

Bill
