Sell my dvx and buy XH A1??

I'm hoping Avid will support it in the universal release sometime soon. It would be a surprise this month. Maybe next month, likely, knowing the way things work, Feb.

I will make the switch to the Canon and bump my G4 when Avid rolls out Intel software. The dvx-100 has served me well...
 
Ah, thats nice quality. The only bummer is that i can't find a single shop that has this camera in stock in norway.. by the way, tryed to edit the clip in vegas 6 and it works flawless, so thats a good thing!
 
I just recieved my A1. Gotta say I am blown away. However in saying the HVX is a more flexible camera. I will definitly be renting for a music video and HVX and a good 35mm adapter, is unbeatable, I've not seen anything better. But for bang for buck features the A1 is the winner.
 
Brandon, you can't import A1 into Vegas, but if you use ConnectHD to change it to its special .avi format (works much better with Vegas) you can import. Not sure if FCP can import the .m2t files, but it "supports" them which is different.

You probably knew that, I can't tell how knowledgable you are on this subject.
 
Not sure what you mean by "you can't import A1 into Vegas". You can capture and edit m2t files without a problem from the A1 using Vega.

Even 24f files? I saw the latest update to Vegas 7 adds support for Sony new camera 24p but I didn't see mention of any Canon 24f support anywhere.

Thanks.

Thanks, but I use Avid, not Vegas for my editing suite, and I do not intend to change. I've tried out Vegas and FCP and much much prefer Avid to those two suites.
 
I own a Media 100 component/digibeta quality, in the last years I never heard anything on this board for Media100. You know what, I started editing on a Lightworks, in Germany 'filmwerkstatt Essen' during the time the first Avid arrived...

OK, back to the subject.
 
My pen with the little swimming shark inside broke some years ago...pity! But I must have the book somewhere, lets look...hey! There is the operating instructions for the 'dxc-m3p' ( sony m3). Page 6 button 6. Preheat switch - when this switch is set to PREHEAT power is supplied only to the pickup tubes
 
Its Fridaynight, I think I go for a beer, no steady hands anyway, to much coffee...
 
Disjecta, how did you import .m2t into Vegas?

I went to the search function, and I followed its instructions on changing your capture device program within Vegas, but when I do that, my A1 doesn't show up as connected.
