    Couldn’t wait.
    Grabbed my EX-1 and walked outside.
    Set the Shutter to Angle 180.
    Must say it looks MUCH nicer. Very smooth.
    Will do more testing later. I’ll let you know how it goes.
    Thanks.

    We’re testing again this afternoon and will try out your suggestions.
    I have great respect for Filmies.
    Thanks for the info.

    Did some test shooting today in 1080p/24p with shutter set to “on” and a 1/48 shutter speed. Must say it looked pretty flickery during the zooms or pans. Locked down looked beautiful.
    What can I do to smooth out the shot?
    Will shots with motion always look that way?
    I viewed them full screen with the Sony Transfer program, not in FCP.
    Could this be the problem?
    Thanks for all the help.

    Thanks for the info Jeff. I’ve been curious about the shutter speeds and how to best use them with the EX1. I’ll be trying this out tomorrow. I have a week to learn this camera and how to best use it with FCP. Every little bit of feedback helps.

    Thanks Again.

    Thanks for the info Rafael.
    I will be doing a lot of experimenting this week and I will put your ideas to good use.

    I guess I’ve settled on either 1080 video in 60i or 30p.
    Could anyone suggest one over the other for a particular type of shooting?
    Edited in Final Cut Studio 2. Keep in mind most of it will be converted over to USA DV for local delivery.
    Thanks for your feedback.

    Do I just drop the 1080i footage directly into a DV timeline?
    Does it create the anamorphic letterboxed look?

    Could someone explain in detail the DV workfow that David Roth Weiss mentions?
    Thanks.

    Do you figure a threaded attachment directly to the tripod?
    I’ve never used a camera this small before. There has always been a tripod adaptor.

    Thanks!

    Any idea when the FCP version that will edit the XDcamEX format will be released by Apple?
    Thanks!
