I dunno… after Steve’s comment, it was like a roomful of people passing around a quart of bad milk, saying “Does this smell bad to you?”. I managed not to inhale. 😛

This is indeed their moment to make a BIG stride forward in industry acceptance.

**I heard** that PPro 6.0 is going to have auto-focus correction detection…. so when any out-of-focus or soft-focus shots are being ingested, the system recomputes the bokeh and collimates the vectors so that any uncorrected pixel shift is redirected into an aligned state, thus producing perfect focus and framing.
Or, as Todd suggests, wait for NAB. 😀

THanks guys. That’s right, Jeremy – I’d forgotten about the AV Foundation issue. And with the question about path conflicts resolved, that makes it easy; I’ll stay on SL, running both on same drive. At such time as I deem necessary, my current system drive will, as you put it Jeremy, get “locked off” as a secondary boot drive.

Just looking back through the comments, and a VERY important thing to note on the PPro-AFX workflow: when you plan on sending multiple segments from PPro, send the first, save the AFX file, then ALWAYS ALWAYS use the SAME AFX project for any subsequent “send to’s”.
If you create multiple AFX projects (like I first did) then PPro WILL get confused, and your timeline will be firmly bollixed.

And to add a suggestion for a “switcher”; when there’s a chance you may want to revisit the original edit after the AFX roundtrip, start out by copy/pasting the timeline clips above themselves, and send THAT to AFX. Disable the originals, and there you go – the originals are saved in place. (Though of course, any serious amount of work in AFX will negate any time savings of reverting to the original clips, but it can help simply to locate a replacement clip that can be brought separately into the AFX project).

Tape? Oh… tape! I remember that stuff. 🙂
THanks for this – I’ve filed it for future reference. Good stuff.

Absolutely true. There are plenty of better arguments about the direction Apple is taking. Away from pro editors, that is.
