Apple.com finally posted the HD trailer for my IRAQ IN FRAGMENTS documentary film. I originally shot the footage on DVX100 and DVX100A cameras in 24pA mode, letterboxed. The finished film was blown up to HD for color correction and film transfer. I cut everything in Final Cut Pro...

I'm having trouble getting my AJ-PCD10 P2 drive to mount correctly on my Macbook Pro laptop -- and I've tried it on a friend's G5 as well with the same result. The included drivers are installed -- both for the HVX200 camera and the P2 drive. The P2 drive tries to mount on the desktop and then...
