If 32gig cards were $200 how many would you buy?

If P2 cards were like water

If P2 cards were like water

If P2 cards were like water I would use them for archival purposes. I like the idea of keeping data on solid state memory cards instead of hard drives. What would be nice to see are hard drives made of solid state memory cards that are hundreds of gigs. I've used the firestore a few times and I just enjoy the ease of use with the P2 cards. The production company I worked for was very hesitant to use the HVX because of the workflow issue. As P2 cards come down in price and increase in size it's really going to make these Panasonic cameras more valuable. DVCPRO looks better in my opinion than HDV and is a lot easier to edit to boot. I really like the workflow a lot. I just want more cards and space. I never considered the camera a documentary camera but with the 32gig cards I can. If I could only afford a bunch of 'em!

I was also wondering if cheaper P2 cards could increase the sales of cameras the same way good software can drive the sales of a good computer system.

.. i still only have one 4 GB card. but truth be told ive never really needed anything more yet. coming up ive got a live event (which is very very rare for me to do) that i think ill run straight to a laptop with "On Location", but other than that for any dramatic production purposes ive generally only needed to offload about 8 times a day max. and thats just if im not deleting any obviously unuseable takes right away. its just so easy to offload in between setups or locations that i dont really see a great need for more card space unless i start working the live event scene.
 
i'd buy 17 of them, take them apart, and use my transformer cube of life to put all the pieces together to assemble a mean hvx200.
 
32 GIg P2 Cards

32 GIg P2 Cards

Would buy 1, because I always have enough free space on my 2x16 Gig P2 Cards so why buy more???
 
I would buy at least six... I often shoot for a few hours in a single day.

Now, if HVX's were $200 each...
