Also be aware that the camera might drop frames if you are NOT shooting in “M” (manual) mode. If the camera automatically adjusts it’s aperture with an EOS lens, it will drop 3 frames.

The P2 Gear only offers one flavor of 1080…60i, it does offer 3 kinds of 720, but it is set correctly for what I am outputting.

Timeline and deck are both set to 1080i60, so is output. All Frames is on. View is in Image. The “deck” is actually a P2 Gear, which I am using as a gateway to get from firewire to HDSDI to give me a final output to a HDCAM deck, which only accepts HDSDI.

I can see the correct timecode running in the FCP capture window from the camera, just as I would if I were capturing from tape. It is only when “Capture Now” is clicked that the error message appears. If this worked, it would minimize the need to download P2 cards since they would be a backup to the captured footage, as long as the timecode is identical.
