I had used a bad card reader to upload footage after a shoot yesterday. The card reader doesn't connect properly and ejected the harddrive(SD card) several times before I was able to just pull it out. I am now unable to access the information on the card but its all still on there. I had used a...

So this year is going to be my first time using my DVX with shooting skiing. I've mainly been shooting 30p with it, but I want a more filmic look, but at the same time I want to be able to slow mo any clip I feel like without having to shoot in 60i to get that smooth looking slow motion. Also if...

A while ago I saw in a video a clip sliding into another. I can't remember where I saw the video so im going to explain it as best as I can. The camera was set on a tripod and panned one way and ended at a tree, the clip it went into was panned in the same direction but started at the tree. It...

In FCP my footage looks sharp like it should, then after I compress with either quicktime, or mpeg streamclip, I get this weird pixel effect flickering in the background. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Heres an example to show you guys...

A company has asked me to do a powerpoint for them. They wanted some video clips in it as well. The whole thing will only about about 4-5 slides and hopefully when they are explaining it, it will be about 10 minutes like they want. How much do people usually charge to do something like this?

The front piece of my mic has popped out and is just hanging by a ribbon and some cord. Im guessing I have to take apart the handle to get it back on. Has this happened to anyone who can tell me how to put it back into place?

I sent mine in on time and I still didn't receive one thing. Did anyone get their MIR money?

Im guessing it has something to do with the logging settings and what not? I searched found this in google http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/dvcpro_hd_workflow_balis.html and followed all the instructions and still get the look of my clips being interlaced before I go to capture them. Any...

I shoot a lot of different sports, and I don't really feel the whole digital look anymore. What is better to use for slow motion, 24p or 24pA? Which progressive mode do I have to use the pulldown in FCP for also? If anyone has links on this please post it. Thanks

So every now and then in a video you might see a clip that is sped up a lot, but at the same time it looks smooth and not shaky from the camera at all, and you can also get a glimpse of what is going on in it for a quick second. I tried to produce this in FCP by just speeding up the clip to a...

So im trying to get a sharper image without getting some noise, I've been playing around with the 3 detail settings and so far this is the one I most like. Detail: +4 V Detail: +4 Detail Coring: +7 If anyone has ever shot with a high detail and has screen shots, please post them. Any...

First time I used my DVX. Went to this crick to get a few shots. Tell me what you think. http://s12.video.blip.tv/2000003216600/Xnick11-ToTheCrick735.mov Compression sorta sucks. BTW does anyone know where I can find good compression settings for h.264?

What's the best way to go about doing this? 24p,30p,60i? How should I go about editing it in FCP to make it look the best, I want the flowing water to actually look like fogish if anyone knows what I mean. Im new to my DVX so im still not sure what progressive mode would be best for fast motion.

Im selling my Vx2100 which I had babied ever since I owned it. There is only one tiny paint mark on the body but it is barely noticeable, other then that nothing is wrong with it. About 2 months ago I was having some dropped out frames in my tapes so I ran a head cleaning tape in it and nothing...
