Transfering X.D CAM HD and HD CAM to Cineform Prospect HD.

Finally a decision has been made for our next feature. We will rend high end cameras in X.D CAM HD and HD CAM and we will edit in Prospect HD. I am still usure as to the simplest way to transfer the tape/disk footage to the hard drive for conversion to Prospect. What do I need to do that? Thank you.

I just spoke to a technician. He tells me the SDI cards have the added advantage of allowing an external HD monitor and allowing multiple in/out formats including YUV, HDMI, RCA, XLR, SDI, etc. This provides for a top of the line fleaxibility.
However... you only really need an SDI card for HD CAM and HD CAM SR. The X.D CAM HD format can be transfered though USB or Ethernet. This really tilts the balance in favor of X.D CAM HD which can de edited natively and without fancy add ons.
Back to HD CAM and HD CAM SR... these formats only make sense if you're going to stay uncompressed (Otherwise you may as well stay with X.D CAM HD or P2). HD CAM means more and faster storage and RAID 5! This means another add on and possibly an acceleration card to punch up the processing power.
The revised chart looks like this:
FORMAT ACQUISITION
HI-8....................RCA Cable (Requires card)
Betacam.................YUV Cable (Requires a YUV card)
HDV / DV................Firewire (Included on Motherboard)
EX1.....................USB or SxS card reader
X.D CAM HD..............USB or ETHERNET (SDI optional)
HD CAM..................HD SDI + Raid 5 (Aja or Blackmagic card)
X.D CAM HD... it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.... :)

  • IPad camera connector and Video cameras

    Anyone has connected a video camera to the iPad through the camera connector and transferred videos?
    Or transferred videos from a digital camera or on the SD card to the iPad?
    Just wondering if it can be done.

    I have done it successfully. However, for it to work the file format of the photos and videos have be supported by the iPad. Not all are. I have a Panasonic Video camera and video format is not supported so the I can't import it. It dose however import stills fine. ALso, the file structure in the camera has to have the photos and videos in a folder titled "DCIM". I have an old camera that does not transfer since its folder is named differently.

  • Camera Raw And Sony Cameras

    I have Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw 2012 version 6.7.0.339. In Camera Raws camera Calibration Panel under Camera Profile it only says Adobe Standard, there is no drop down menu with eg. Landscape , Camera vivid etc.  My Cameras are Sony SLTa65 and Sony A33 which are supported by this version of Camera Raw. Why is there no drop down menu and a different process date?

    I got to that page but clicking on the Subscribe Free had no effect.
    Nothing showed in the Podcasts nor the iTunes U.
    In fact I also subscribed to Stanford's lectures and despite actually managing to DL them there is still no subscription in iTunes U, just the Intro to Computer Science belatedly.

  • Camera connector and Kodak camera

    Hi all,
    will my Kodak DX7630 camera be compatible with the iPod Camera connector? It doesn´t show up in the compatibility list, but perhaps it will although work...

    The Camera Connector is a USB adapter. If your camera can unload via USB to a PC it should probably work. Haven't tried mine yet but it looks slick.
    Actually I just did. Hooked up my Sony T1 docking station to it and it works great. Perhaps a little slower than to the G5 but very acceptable and potentially very handy.

  • Can't see a nikon d800 camera profile in adobe camera raw 8.2

    Hello,
    I can't see a nikon d800 camera profile in adobe camera raw 8.2
    When I open a NEF file from D800, I can see in upper left corner "Camera Raw 8.2 - Nikon D800", but when I open  "camera calibration" and click "camera profile", I can only see "Adobe standard, camera landscape, camera neutral, camera vivid" etc., but there is no "Nikon d800 profie
    I copied .dpx files with that profile to:   C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles     ,but nothing happened.
    Strange thing is that when I open a NEF file from old Nikon D80, in "camera profile" appears: "camera D2X mode1", "camera D2X mode2", "camera D2X mode3". Any ideas?

    The profiles that you see listed are the profiles for the camera that took the photo.  You will not see the camera model listed.  Those are the profiles Adobe created for the camera that took the image.  You cannot change profiles to those of a different camera.
    Apparently older Nikon cameras had the profiles you see listed for your D80.  I have those same profiles of as part of my D90 choices.  But, again apparently, those profiles are not part of newer cameras.  I wouldn't know, because I'm still using a D90.

  • Where to purchase PC-Cam 900 or PC-Cam 920?

    Any info on this? I can't find either of these Creative cameras at newegg or Creative's American site.
    Thanks for any help on this,
    Wayne

    It may still be available in some stores, but the only similar cameras currently available through our own US online store are the DC-CAM 3200Z and DC-CAM 3000Z
    The other cameras on our store are more tradition PC-based webcameras. You should check with stores in your area or stores online if they have the other camera in stock.

  • I purchased a blu-ray of The Hunger Games and it came with a code for a digital copy. I redeemed the code on iTunes but the download has been continuing for 2 weeks now and it never finishes! The time just keeps going up. Never an issue in the past.

    I purchased the blu-ray of The Hunger Games and it came with a code to redeem for a digital copy. I redeemed the code in iTunes and the movie downloaded fine, but the "EXTRAS" have been downloading for 2 weeks! Everytime I launch iTunes it starts the download again and the counter keeps going UP, at one point it said it would take 3 weeks. I have paused and restarted the download, I have deleted the download, nothing works to finish or stop this download! Does anyone have a clue what's up?

    ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

  • Camera Conector and Canon Raw files

    Hi
    I have a Canon 30d, looking at buying a Ipod 30gig to use as a back up whilst shooting and filling a 1 gig cf card rather than keep buying cf cards...
    Will the ipod accept the raw files? and will I be able to view the photos ie can an ipod read canon raw file format??
    thanks
    Steve

    Hi
    Whether or you can transfer raw photos from a camera to the iPod via the camera connector I don't know. However, I do know that on the older iPods (the ones with the color screen which can't play video) you could transfer a movie (mpg) that you had shot on a digital camera. Although the iPod couldn't play the movie, you could see tell if the movie had transferred, and you could then transfer the movie from iPod to the computer with no problems. Thus, it may be possible to transfer raw photos from camera to iPod via the camera connector and then from iPod to computer. However, the iPod CANNOT display raw photos, so even if you can transfer them, you won't be able to see them.
    Hope this helps

    ptp is to go to a printer. i have 3 transfer modes on my minolta and 2 on my sony, they both only work when they are in normal mode.
    one quick note. i had a problem when i was transfering pics on one occasion, it just stopped mid-way and then would no longer recognise the camera. i turned both off then back on, nothing. i did the select+menu reset and everything was back to normal.
    i am quickly finding that the camera connector is a finnicky piece now that i am looking to find a card reader that it will recognize. i doesn't recognise much. good luck

  • How do I delete pictures from my albums other the camera roll and My photo stream

    How do I delete pictures from my albums other then the camera roll and my photo stream

    Photos in albums that were transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are removed the same way. Move the photo or photos you want to delete from the selected album or folder of photos on your computer followed by a sync.
