Better yet, just buy the band… they can then perform live for you anytime you want. Then you not only get “high resolution” but also 3-D without the funny glasses…..

I use the shot watcher by vortex media. Though in my case it is a “one-way” flow. I do not have a second shot watcher for the B cam. I use a wireless communiction however to coordinate camera movements between the two shots. I find that in most cases this works very well.

wish I could help…. but I don’t believe in using fruit to edit…. just kidding. Normally I wouldn’t joke like that but you seem to have a great sense of humor.
Seriously I just got the anamorphic lens (well it on its way) once I have had a chance to play with it I will share my work flow. Though I am on a PC I suspect that the work flow will matchup to one degree or another. I have some buddies that use mac’s and have found this theory to be true with other issues.

I am curious, why wouldn’t you manually WB? Do adjust in post? if so why not cpature it that way to begin with?
I tend to push my whites to make things look a little warmer. I simply prefer the look.

I white balance each time the color temp changes providing the situation allows for it. Let me also state though that my camera holds 3 settings. Two manual setting and a preset at 3.2k. So if I know in advnce the various conditions I will be in I can set these in advance. Otherwise I will stop when appropriate and WB. I purchased the Warm Cards from vortex media (BH carries them too) and keep one of the small cards in my shirt pocket at all times. This makes WB a snap taking only seconds and will save me a ton of time in post.

Sounds like you are not recording with the lav mic, but with the built in mic. This could also explain why your audio sounds so bad. If I am right you need to go into the menu and make sure it is set to the external mic.

That may be true, but from a pratical standpoint the DVC-60 is not well suited for low light conditions. It would not be my camera of choice for covering events such as a wedding reception. I have a DVC-15 (which was replaced by the DVC-60). Both cameras are 4 lux cameras. It requires way more light than my DVX-100. For the amount of money you are talking about you could get a vx-2100 which is much better suited to covering receptions.

Do you mean the AGDVC-60 by Panasonic? I am not familar with a JVC camera by that name.
If you do mean the Panasonic camera you should know that it is not that “big” of a camera weighing in under 6 pounds. I would also suggest looking at reviews of the camera. The DVC-60 is much like the DVC-15 (discontinued) or the DVC-7 (single chipper) in that low light performance may be an issue for you.

I have no complaints with the quality. Granted it is not going to be “completely pristine”, but my results have been equal to a mid range wireless or a MD recorder.

With an iRiver you do not need to record agin the audio. It comes with some pretty decent software that makes the process no more complicated than a drag and drop. I can convert an hour of audio to wav in about 30-40 seconds.
