The only way I know to calibrate an ACD to color bars is through an MXO, but with an Imac, I can’t see a way you could hook one up. Plus, it would cost more than a cheap monitor and A to D converter. Imac is more or less a consumer machine, you can’t do many things or add cards and such the way you could with a a tower or MacBook Pro.
So I think the answer is no.

Wow, this thread just jolted my memory (Oldtimer’s Disease) about a week ago I was trying to capture to ProRes via FW on my G5 (same setup as DRW’s) and it kept bailing on the capture after a few seconds. I think that machine is still on 10.5.4. It still captures via FW fine for DV material, so I dunno.

Todd,
In the short term, you’d get better results with FC2. Why? Motion is pretty good, and pretty easy to learn, plus, you’d be getting FCP so you could edit too. After Effects, while incredibly great, is equally complex, and the learning curve can be considerable.

I know that, but it’s not uncompressed which is my point.

I am one of those like your friend who is more than happy with 8 bit. A lot of my work goes out on Beta which is 8 bit, so 10 bit is a total waste of space and render time. For banding issues, I just add a tiny bit of grain. I never work in 10 bit. Actually, these days I do nearly everything in ProRes.

Pete,
Are you sure this deck can read Canon A1 30F footage?

The Canon footage will work in Sony decks if you shoot 60i. The other frame rates won’t work.
