    >>I recently read that 30P and -3db gave the most film like quality.

    I’m not sure what either one of those has with “film like quality”.

    FIlm can be shot at 30, but most are used to the 24fps look, so If that
    is what you are going for then HQ 24p is what you want to shoot with.

    -3db is just how much video noise you see. Increasing the sensitivity brightens
    the picture but ads more noise. This can actually be a little reminiscent of 16mm film,
    but not sure what you are getting at here. -3db is good to use no matter what you are
    shooting and will provide a cleaner picture.

    The adapters are a whole other discussion which you can find about 50 million sites and
    message boards on to research.

    Make sure and experiment with the many Picture Profiles floating around the internet.
    There are some with some film-like gamma settings which have a nice look to them.

    See… that’s what you get for assuming! Sorry.

    The A1 outputs 1080/50i. You can remove the pulldown to get 25p I assume.
    After your capture try using Cinema Tools or After effects.

    The EX3 feels like a toy on the Sachtler 12SB if that helps you out.
    It’s so light even a DV4II balances it fine.

  • Direct HDSDI capture is better, but obviously cumbersome for field work. 🙂
    Convergent Designs and AJA are changing that though.

  • We used to capture into a Kona LHe with the original H1 and remove the pulldown
    in After Effects by using the “Guess Pulldown” option. Worked every time.

    Compressor should work fine though.

    Use black duct tape. It’s at least 47% less sticky when hot. 🙂

    >>someone just edited a 30 minute piece in 1080 HDV at it performed admirably.

    Editing is fine, but just have a good book handy when you are ready to render HDV. 🙂

    The Intel macs from 2007 had a long run, and they still seem fast.
