Man – NO DOUBT!! You’re right on with this. I’m pretty much stuck now for a while and have to figure out a way to make this work for me. I do like the Matrox hardware that is connected with this, and I do like the other Adobe apps. But that is why I am so frustrated that I was suckered into thinking that Premier was up to snuff. Matrox made some professional gear here with the Axio – why would they not discuss these issues with Adobe? They even had digisuite FOR YEARS before Axio, and no one laying a show back to Beta in those days ever complained??? No f-in way! And you’re right about this so-called file-based horizon. I have always felt like anyone who touts the death of tape in the very near future obviously has not had to deliver a show to a major network. I’m sure there have been some file-based deliveries of a final product to a major network, but I’ve never seen of heard of it, and I deliver to 3 major cable networks. Oh well – gotta make due with what I have now. Luckily I have a huge amount of storage, cuz there ain’t no way I’m going to try to recapture clips on a timeline with this thing.

Well – that argument, if made by Adobe developers, would be sickening. Let’s say everything does completely file-based. You will STILL ahve timecode on the files, and you will STILL need to occasionally replace (or recapture in a file-based way) deleted or archived clips. Then once you have the clips in there, you will still need to be able to see the clip timecode. Highlighting the clip to get timecode info in unacceptable. It’s a complete stoppage of work, and is therefor unprofessional. With this one reason alone, if I wasn’t totally beholden to After Effects, Photoshop, etc., I probably would have gotten something else. Although, I was an Avid user for well over 10 years, and their inexpensive hardware solutions suck now, so it’s hard to know where to turn. At least they have the timecode issue down, along with Velocity.

Oh, hey Mr. Bunker, I thought you were dead. I was merely referring to equivalants. No worries, I will do all the testing myself in a month or so and put an end to my own speculative banter. Thanks.

Well….dang on both counts, even though I knew the likely answer for both Qs. Great reply though – thanks. Hopefully I can find a good lens for he HDX in the 15k and under range. One other thing – do you think that paint settings transferred manually from an SDX will render very similar results in the HDX in terms of color, contrast, range, etc?
