Well, if one is using the camera to shoot B-Roll, no problem – what’s a 1/4-second? But if you’re shooting dialogue, or interview footage, I don’t see how anybody manages to stay tuned to both the audio and the video – the gap is really disturbing.
And it’s funny – there is no such gap on any “real” cinema camera, right? I mean, no one would CONSIDER putting up with anything like this on a Scarlet, let alone an Alexa, Epic, F5, F55, F65, etc. Even pretty low-end camcorders don’t exhibit this kind of behavior.
I’ve no experience with the BCC, but I’d be shocked if it displayed a 250ms delay in monitoring. How do you do critical follow-focus if what you’re seeing is late?
If this IS characteristic of all 1D C bodies, I think it’s a deal-breaker in a camera suggested as a “Scarlet-killer”.

It’s the person with the comely tutorial voice!
Yes, thank you, Twixtor is now opening in AE. I simply had to do a restart of my system. Apparently.
Cheers!

Yeah, Ryan, I did that. You’re right – I must have done the custom shortcuts as soon as I made the switch from FCP7, and just forgot about it.
Thanks!

Wow. So yes, it IS Zoom, and it IS from the FCP7 set. But what’s truly bizarre is that I don’t remember ever customizing the PPr shortcuts to include just these from FCP7, AND I am used to using the rest of the default PPr shortcuts!
So I must have kept the default CS6 set, but entered, perhaps in my sleep or under in the influence of Ambien, these two ” legacy” shortcuts.
Weird, indeed. Well, thanks, in any case!

Amazing – nope! I still have some shortcuts – like C for Razor, or any of my edit tools (B, N, etc.), but no Shift-Z or Command-+ …
Bizarre.

These aren’t special or personal or custom keyboard shortcuts. These are perhaps the most common shortcuts in the default set, like Zoom Timeline to Fit (Shift-Z). So I shouldn’t have needed to save them – they should load with the install.

Re: Vision’s Twixtor and Twixtor Pro.

Well, I was hopeful, but in this case … no dice! Didn’t remove the crossed lines or the Demo status.

Hey Tom –
Yeah, Re: Vision asks you to enter registration data before it will install, or reinstall, the plug. No worries – did that.
This is an AE issue: how do I get rid of the crossed lines indicating a Demo version of the plug that is coming up in the project; in other words, how do I let AE know that this is an authorized plugin? Do I have to take the effect out, and then put it back in and reapply the settings or something?
Thanks –

OK, check THIS out: even the software that came with the body – DPP – does NOT see this file type! Amazing.
So what I ended up doing was this: I use an editing app called Photo Mechanic, from Camera Bits. Brilliant for very fast edits, because it uses the tiny JPG embedded in every RAW file. Well, the latest versions of Photo Mechanic have an option to Save As a full-rez TIF, so that’s what I did. Converted to TIF in PM, imported everything into PhotoShop, and then worked in Camera Raw on TIF files, instead of RAW files.
Not ideal, but I got the job out.
