Thanks guys for all the great info. Philip Boons shots are wonderful.
How does the EX1 compare with the HPX500? Which I almost bought till now.
Are there any example of keying on the web?
I plan to shoot a doco in a remote location. Whats the best way to backup the flash cards? I’ll be traveling light.
Tripod recommendations and other accessories? Maybe that should all be on another thread.

Thanks Shane I read your article on Matrox for monitoring. Hopefully I can do better with AJA

Thanks Shane I started to suspect that but I thought I might see it some how. So the big decision is which AJA and should I buy? and do I really need the next G5 intel? and when?
I’ve still got other MACs with Media 100s lying around and it seems a waste to keep buying. Timing is every thing. I plan on going into HD with the P2 system. Just DVCPROHD.
Thanks for your quick response.

I have an AJA IO and for viewing HD I thought of getting a Kona 3 card. I’ll be inputing P2 card data DVCproHD. I’m on a G5 2,7 with 2.5 megs of ram. maybe going to the intel 4 core G5.
What do you think of the Kona 3 with the 17″ Panasonic HD/SD LCD Monitor.

Thanks
Peter

Its a shame that they can put this on DVD or stream it. Seems like a good policy to get people into understanding the ups and downs of the P2 work flow.
Maybe a DVD has already been made?

Hi Jim, I mainly producing short promo videos for Corporate and Government.
I have a Betacam D30 but I am thinking of buying the Panasonic 500 with the Fuji 2x lens, but I’m waiting for the 32 gig P2 cards.
I have a FCP6 and Media100 edit suite.
I’m a Brit and came to Toronto in 1967 when I was 21 and landed on Yorkville. Worked for CBC CTV TVO spent time in Ottawa and went to Hollyweird where I was a film editor and a cinematographer.
