I plan to use Quicktime files in the XDCAM codec for FCP7 do work with (I need files as small as I can without any loss in quality) and prores 422 files from PANASONIC TM700 (I guess I should go with 422 and not 422Lt?). But my basic camera (with most of the clips) is Sony with XDCAM codec files. So I’m wondering if I should match my timeline with the XDCAM files and render to
a) xdcam files
b)prores 422
c)prores proxy (and when I finish, throw the render files and render to 422HQ and then export)
c)to match my time line with prores 422 files and render also to proress 422.
