It is working. I don’t need to worry about any of this. All I do is upload the photos to them and they take it from there. Done deal.

Well he messed it up this time because he didn’t realize that the release of Final Cut Pro X is the rapture!

June 6, 2011 at 5:57 pm in reply to: Optimum Strategies for Shooting Stills and HD Video Simultaneously during Photoshoot?While I’m not shooting stills & video exactly simultaneously, on some shoots I am utilizing (and being paid for) both capabilities. I’m doing an ongoing series of physician interviews for a large medical entity. Normally, they would have the doctors go in to a photo studio for headshots that go on the website and ID badge. But, since I’m already setting up nice lighting and doing an interview I can easily switch my GH2 over to photo mode and get some high res headshots. I get paid extra and they save the trouble of having to schedule the doctor for one more thing. It’s a win-win! My Panasonic GH2 has paid for itself more quickly than any other camera I have owned in over a decade in this business –while enabling me to deliver a higher quality product.

[Sean Winn] “Not sure about your card link though – for the 7D it’s CF cards, and the Lexar 16gb 600x cards I’ve looked at through B&H (130.00) do not indicate Class 10 anywhere. I’m not sure if CF cards do.”
Sorry about that; my GH2 uses SD cards. I’m not sure what the speed designations are for Compact Flash.

[Sean Winn] “I sent the 7D off today to have it looked at just in case. Will hate that if this just turns out to be a card issue – dangit. I’ll look into getting better cards.
When you say Class 10 or Extreme II, is that going to be listed on a card or does class 10 simply serve as a class descriptor but the cards themselves will not indicate that – rather just be a certain speed, etc?”
I can’t believe you sent the camera off without trying a different card first. Can you say “basic troubleshooting”? The faster cards generally show the class designation because that’s the big selling point. These are the cards I got: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HFER6O Wow… just checked the price and it has dropped $30 bucks since December. Compared to P2, these babies are dirt cheap!

[Sean Winn] “Thanks Jason, what do you know about the professional Lexar 600x cards – is that the top end?”
Sorry, not a brand I’m very familiar with.

[Peter Corbett] “I’m having hellish problems after just installing CS5.5 My Kona LHe is not being recognised on legacy projects and is crashing Premiere constantly.”
Did you have Premiere CS5 working with your LHe? Can’t get it to work here and no response from AJA support.

Grab a Sandisk class 10 card and give that a whirl. If you get the same problem, you know it’s not the card.
