Trying to figure out the record times. Say I was using a 32mb card and shooting 1080p 24fps, how many minutes of video will this card hold? Also, if I was shooting with a 5D mkii at 1080p 30fps with the same card, how many minutes? I can't figure it out :badputer:

This question has been sort of asked here but never answered... I have a consumer grade DVD recorder with a firewire port. I tried to plug my G5 into this hoping that I can hit play on FCP and burn DVDs realtime. Problem is FCP doesn't recognise thar something is pluged into the firewire port...

I want to create the "Saving Private Ryan" look with DVX100a. So I switch the cam into fast shutter speed mode (24pA) and the white balance starts to drift from orange to red to violet to blue and so on. It continually cycles thrue the entire range, non-stop. This happens with speeds from 1/250...
