I don’t believe so.. though of course you might be able to Applescript/Keyboard Maestro or Textexpand up some sort of workflow.

Yeah they would be converted though- not played directly.

Yeah unfortunately at this price point there’s no guarantee two cameras are going to have perfectly matching images/LCD screens out of the box. That said, with a good monitor including a Waveform/Vectorscope you should be able to calibrate them pretty closely to match. And if you can’t perhaps one camera has a repairable issue.

I’m thinking that doesn’t work in X but I’ll check…

Hehe- “dirt cheap wireless video” = junk. There might be some really cheapo RF adapters you could Google for that are under $100. But the quality is godawful…

Step one- get better audio gear and use it. The onboard mic is useful for exactly one thing- a guide track to sync up your proper audio that you’ve recorded using a good mic, preferably a wireless mic or a shotgun mic on a boom pole and generally into a much higher quality outboard digital recorder (double-system sound).
The onboard mic is the absolute bare minimum quality there is and it’s about as far away from the thing you want to hear (generally a person on camera speaking) as imaginable. So work on that part of your production and you’ll achieve much better results.

Half way up- hmm that doesn’t sound like you were getting close to overmodding. Which is where you want to be with your loudest sounds. Digital audio is what it is- i.e. the waveform doesn’t lie or change when you copy a file. Are you sure you had the recording level set high enough?

As long as the holder itself is sealed from dust and moisture inside- should be good to go. I use a Pelican case with bare SDHC cards inside- no issues.

Are you asking is it technically feasible- absolutely. I’d recommend simply getting enough SDHC cards to bang out the whole day without stopping to transfer. Compared to P2 cards or HD tapes- they’re cheap as dirt. For me it’d be more a question of, do I think I can do a good job with the lenses I have to work with. That’s a question of skill level, practice and the quality of your gear. I’d say go for it…

The data rates you’re working with in DSLR video end up making CD card and SDHC card performance pretty identical. It’s more an issue when you’re dealing with say 6fps full RAW stills. that’s a lot of data being pumped through at once. 25 megabit video, not so much. So just be sure to use a decent brand and get at least the speed class card level recommended by the manual for the video format you’re planning to shoot. And you should be good to go…
