I just got my FS-100 today and read the instructions, but I can’t get it to work.
Could you share your settings?I have a 4GB P2 card install inside also that I plan on using when my Glidecam comes in. I know that it should be simple setting that I have to fix, but my brain is fried already.
Thanks

The image of 1080i is about 2X the 480i DV so yes you can zoom in.
What is important to note is that you can shoot HDV transfer to a format that would be easy to edit and make an SD DVD and get a much better image than with DV to DVD.Douglas Villalba

Yes it is mpg2 and just like on a DVD you get them sometimes. It has been reported on other cameras too. I can’t remember if I read it on the DV net JVC or Canon. It is not only on the dark, I had artifact on a reflective silver curtain background.

Thanks Peter,
“Did you tweak the aspect ratio for the web version?”
Yes, I first converted to DVCPRO HD square pixels at 1280X720 to show right out of my PowerBook to an HD 720 monitor to show it at Bridal Shows. It looks even better than the 1080i HDV right out of FCP5. I guess that the computer can keep up with it better in the DVCPRO HD format. I use a 1 Ghrz DP G4 with 1 GB RAM to edit and 1.33 Ghz with 512 RAM laptop to demo it.
I took the DVCPRO HD file and converted it with Sorenson 3 preset but I think that I half the size.“Stage performances are going to be outsatnding with that setup.”
I have used it, but sometimes you can see compression blocks on dark flat areas.
“How will you deliver to the client?”
That is why I started testing ways to deliver it since their is not an HD DVD still. I think that if someone contracts me to do an HD wedding the won’t mind using their computers to connect to an HD TV untill there is a delivery system.

Well we had our second day of shooting and everything went well. It happends that this particullar TV personality has a very estrange low frequency voice causing the mics to peak. We just had to keep the studio mic. 4 feet from him for the loops and instead of the Senn M67 we used a lesser quality mic.
