Hi
Maybe this could be an issue on the editing software – maybe some software/editing hardware are able to generate the right pictures from the long gop in the timeline and some are not. That could be the explanation why some have sharp pictures at every eight pictures and someone else do not have that problem ? just a thougt… -
That is why I always use the clock as timecode – gives you a perfect view of the days recordings.

And something that is very important, when it comes to focusing: You can put an HD viewfinder on the 2100 and only an SD on the 500. HD is much more difficult to focus than SD – With a low resolution monitor you have no chance to focus…

When you need a progresive output – never record in an interlaced format. Can’t figure out if thats what you had been doing (1080i 30p ?) . I have tried a lot to make my HDV 1080i recordings look right in a 720 25P progresive projekt but I never found a goodlooking way to convert. It seems better to record in progressive and then convert to interlaced later – if needed.

Hi
I also wonder what would create the best result when recording on my HPX 2100.
Would it be best to record 720-25P naitive (for more space on the P2 card)and afterwards upscale the recordings in the editing system – or to record 1080-25P DVCPRO HD letting the camera do the upscaling? Still I do not what HD system we will end up with in Europe but I guess it would be 1080-25P.
I think it is almost a standard today in nature documentaries… -
Can’t find the update yet – hope it comes soon.

I have not maked it work in vista 64 bit !

Had the same problem – wonder what the “ingest” buttom are for. Why can’t the panasonic software copy the files to a specified directory and the delete the files on the P2 cards ? I think that would be a very normal way to do things – now you have to do everything manually.

When you move the contens folder on the P2 card to your raid or hardisk you have to format your P2 card again. This could be done with some software downloadable from panasonic p2 downloadpage. If you copy the Contens folder it’s still on the P2 card and all the Mxf files are there still too. This is very anoying. Panasonic launched some new software called”P2 contens management software”. With this you can ingest the footage but it come up with a folder for each clip, why ? Then I cannot import all the files at once.
If you have to get the P2 card fast back to the camera for more recordings to be made – what is the fastest way to offload the P2 card and get it back into the camera – formatted? -
I have 16gB cards for my HPX2100 – now just waiting for the driver !
