Actually, I completely re-filmed the scene at 48 fps and it imported just fine. I may have done something weird with that one setting. I also filmed at 60 fps and it also worked. It was just that one particular scene that wouldn’t work right…

One thing I did do is I created a separate event for each of the slow motion scenes when I imported them, then I just dragged them onto the timeline with the footage I had done at 24pN. They played and exported just fine.

Not sure what I did, but it now seems to be working. One of those things I guess.

Jeremy, thanks for responding but the “remove pulldown option” was off… Any other ideas?

I was in FILM CAM mode then just switched the frame rate from default (shooting at 24pN) and put the frame rate at 48 and then shot the scene.

Thanks Chris. Yes I did try, and it worked, but I am always worried that even though a method is working it might not be something good for the camera.

Thanks Steve. And if I wanted to do a typical slow motion scene, I would create a Scene File and set Operation to Film Cam and the frame rate to 48 if shooting in 24pN?

I understand they both have their own bus.

But if the camera is plugged into the Macbook via USB and the HD is plugged into the Macbook via firewire, the files can’t go camera–macbook–HD using p2cms?

Sorry, another question for transferring in the field.

If I have a Macbook Pro hooked up to the camera via USB 2.0, then have an external drive plugged into the Mac via the 800 firewire port, will this make a problem if I am transferring the files to the external drive from the camera using 2 different protocols plugged into the Mac (USB 2.0 and Firewire)?

Thanks.

Thanks, Chris. Understood. I didn’t mean to sound dense. This is a huge investment for me, so when hearing one thing from experienced users on this website, and then reading a book that came with the camera that was written by another experienced user saying something completely different, it confused me. I just don’t want to break my camera.

I have tried the USB port and it works fine.
