In the book “After Effects 5.5 magic” there is a very good tutorial on that effect.

Why Steve, you have made me blush.

Just to point out that the camera can only capture HD to the P2 cards. And from what I here they are $1700 for an 8gb one. That means 16 min of footage on one card.
Doesnt seem like quite a bargain to me yet.
Now if the lottery happens to come up my numbers, then panasonic….we got a deal.

Oh I am not an engineer, I am a technician. Engineer’s maintain the equipment. I run the equipment and calibrate the equipment. I guess in some circles that could be the same.
I understand where you come from though. Some engineers can be a major pain in the ***.
I actually am in Canada. We spell colour <--- this way. I work for the CBC as an editor/technician. As an editor I make the content, and as a technician I line up and air the content. At home on both sides of the coin. Ryan

Your best bet is to listen to steve and get a waveform/vectorscope.
Also, use colour bars, and set your levels to match the colour bars.
ie. The brightest part of your images shouldn’t go any higher than the brightest point of the colour bars. Same with the blacks.
As long as you stay within those ranges there shouldn’t be any issues.
The correct level for black in digital is 0 IRE (If you want to be ultra conservative you could set your blacks to 7.5 IRE analog). White is 100 IRE.
As long as your footage is setup the same as your bars, no engineer can say boo.
Just to let you know I am a broadcast technician, so I know a little about what I am talking about.
