Hi Guillaume,

I tried to watch your video but it looks like you’ve taken it down from Vimeo.

Did you figure out what was causing the noise?

I just got an XF100 and also noticed noise on mine, as well as kind of muted colors.

Wondering if you got yours figured out?

Thank you, Rodrigo. That was the issue and the Macbook Pro solved it!

Rodrigo,
thank you again–I have only a Macbook, which is perhaps where the issue lies.
When I bought the computer two years ago, I was mainly shooting photographs but I think a Macbook pro would be a lot better for video?

Hi Steve, Thanks for your response. You guys have all been so helpful.

Well, that probably answers it best–I should upgrade to a MacBook Pro because this Macbook does not have a firewire port at all.

It’s such a relief to know there are people out there who can help with really specific questions. Thank you all. 🙂

Hi Rodrigo,
Thank you for your response. I will look into the Lacie HD. Do you know, though, if that can work with a Macbook? I have a USB port, but I don’t know if that’s the same as the firewire port? is the firewire port the smaller port next to the USB ? How would I find out if this is 400 or 800?
thank you!!!

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for your quick response. Purchasing an external drive like iStorage 2 would be the best option? is this better than purchasing a new, faster computer? I wonder if there are Macs designed to work better with HD footage.

Thank you!!
