  • PERFECT ANSWER TO MY QUESTION! Thank you so very much JOHN. I like to stay in contact with you as I am looking very soon to upgrading to higher end equipment. I’d like to see what you have to offer in equipment and cameras. The work is coming and I am currently working with partners and investors.

  • Good Answer!

    But…You’ll get a biased answer? Not necessarly. But I’d like to hear from all no matter. Like you said Craig…I’ll get all answers and be able to figure out why. That’s all I need. Thanks for your input.

  • I know it can be done……my point was having to go that extra step on converting the original file that the camera makes before being able to edit in Premiere Pro…Sony Vegas etc.

  • Yes…understood. I use the Sony EX1 and love it for the MAC but wish I could use it the same way with my PC in Premiere Pro when switching to that NLE program. Now I’m looking to another Video Camera because I hate the ergonomics of the camera when shooting handheld.

  • Sorry guys if I did anything wrong. Wasn’t meant to be spam. I didn’t consider it to be spam. I just wanted to make sure all 4 related forums got to respond to this with equal time. I couldn’t find the right general forum section with which to get this point across and have the most responses.

    It was very interesting reading this thread as I too am looking for my next ENG Video camera. All the answers and comments are very helpful and I thank all who replied. However…..I’m always concerned about which video camera is actually worth it in terms of performance and ability. There is always some sort of drawback to these cameras. One thing I’m noticing is that on the video card capture features I always see this “The clips are QT.mov format using the XDCAM EX codec and drop right into FCP without any transcoding or rendering”. What gives with this? Why is it like this? I use both PC and MAC and would like to be able to not have to go the extra step in transcoding for Premiere Pro on a PC. Why are they making cameras that do this. More people use PC than a MAC.

    What Cameras have the best rating and worth there weight and price?

    Thanks

    Thanks again!

    “Try changing the name of the project. This helps for a while.” What kind of solution or answer is that? Sorry but this problem with rendering in Premiere Pro should NOT be happening. Especially when using the Text creation tool in premiere Pro. If you try and use a font that may be corrupt maybe yes. But we all seem to be having this problem and I’m included in this on occasion. Now I’m finding out that my favorite plugin from Video CoPilot…”Twitch” does NOT pre Render in the Timeline so I can see if the effect is ok for me. I make the effects from Aftereffects and import the video in the timeline and save the effect. Half the effect wont prerender. I went through all the scenarios from all the contributing answers here in the forum. Thank you guys. A lot of you are right about using still images with too high a resolution…etc. Really frustrating to still be getting these errors. I wish there was some way that when the error occurs that Premier Pro would tell me what is causiing the problem instead of giving me the general error message. Too much extra work and backtracking. Frustrating.

  • Thanks for your reply…appreciate it!

    Thanks for the advice….but I have a detailed question about your answer. What do you mean exactly by “closing your program monitor”? Can you elaborate?
