Hi Gang I don't know if I posted this in the right place? I realize this camcorder has been discontinued and I do have a manual for the HC-V770 camcorder, but cannot find any info on polarity for the AC Adapter. Its a 5 volt power supply, (the correct voltage), and proper plug. The polarity...

Hey Mark (or anyone) Would use of the adapter card AJ-P2M064AG, P2, AJ-P2AD1G convert the video file to a more universally accepted file format. Or would it unpackage the dual folder issue into ONE video file? SAMPLE ADAPTER Thank You

Hi there Mark Great photos of your AJ-PCS060G and thank you for sending them. :) I'm not tied to my PC's, (I do have a few older Mac G5's with Final Cut), but haven't used them in years. I'd have to beef them up with Lion OS to get compatibility to use P2 cards etc. For much lower cost, (and...

Hi there Imana & mark Thank you BOTH for your comments ... BTW, a current drawback is that the HVX200 video files are written as 'DVC Pro 50' only which may not be compatible in my current video editor MEP Plus? They may have be to be converted (still working on that). From what I've read...

Hi Gang I have an HVX200 and would like to capture (or) import HD contents of the P2 card into my PC Editing Program (not my Mac). In order to edit in Final Cut, my understanding is that I'd need at least Mac OS® X 10.5.8 (Leopard) in order to see/recognize the P2. I don't have my Mac set up...

Hi Gang Hoping I have the right place; (as many older camera inquires are dismissed or inactive). I wanted to purchase a back-up power adapter for both my Panasonic DVX100 and Panasonic HVX200. The existing power adapter (on hand), for the DVX100 is the DE-811. It also works for the HVX. I...

Hello asergi - Thanx for your comment Very sorry for the late reply ... This all boils down to the fact I need at least Mac OS® X 10.5.8 (Leopard) in order to see/recognize the P2 Panasonic Video File. Yes that's correct, I cannot simply point and click to a P2 file and play it without an...

Hi Gang I have an older AG-HVX200A P2 (never used it). I remember there was a complication in capturing/extracting video in need of certain drivers or software? Is it possible to simply capture video as one used to do thru the IEEE 1394 port when capturing Mini DV? Or is it more complicated...

Hi Gang I'm an older dog using FCP7 within Snow Leopard. Also have years experience editing SD with an AG‑DVX100B using FC6. Just acquired a mint condition DVX 200A. Would like to possibly pay for some tutoring and 'Jump Start' trying to extract/unwrap footage from the 200A bringing it into my...

Hi Gang (Thanx for all your previous help) I received a recent Ebay purchase from Adorama for a used HVX200A. I usually prefer B&H but was impressed with the cosmetic condition of the camera. Almost appears they possibly cleansed & buffed the casing, it actually looks 'mint' with 400...

Hi Barry - Hi Gang I'm an older fillmmaker and 'SD Editor' using FCP7 just now stepping up to HD. Would like to minimize the learning curve staying close to similar controls (resembling my old DVX100B). Currently looking at HVX200A's & HVX200's on Ebay or a local sale. I've confirmed its a...

Hi Gang I'm aware many people have discussed this topic before. Unfortunately I started a very expensive documentary 7-8 years ago when HD was still in its infancy, and many people had still not traded in their old CRT TV's for a flat wide screen. When there's absolutely no funding, little...

Hi Gang On page 56, you can see where its possible to Sync Time Code between TWO DVX100B's. Most of my live taping is done outside with 2 cameras; long days, cameras are turned on & off frequently. I, (as director), make the call as far as F Stop/Aperture matching, etc. Barry Green points...

Hello Barry & Fellow Users I'm a 65 year old DVX user; have been working with DVX exclusively on a WWII documentary for the past 8 years. I've learned the hard way; balancing #2 of these cameras together, (if settings are incorrect or sloppy), can be a nightmare. ONE QUESTION: On page 56...

Hi Gang My experience, (7 years with DVX100B), has shown that its very difficult, (almost impossible), to balance between two 100B's if exposures have been too far off from each other, (more than 1 F Stop). I'm talking about the same lighting conditions outdoor or indoor. Even with with FC6...

Hi Gang Most of my material is shot in 24p. However there were a few pieces that were shot in 60i. I have a program called DVFilm which converts batches or singles and drops a frame to simulate the look of 24p. Its a pretty good match to the DVX100B 24p setting. Does anyone know any other...

Hello Gang Haven't been here in a while. 65 year old WWII filmmaker still using several 100B's. Started in 2006. Can someone tell me how to determine if a tape was recorded in 24P basic. Most of my stuff was, but some wasn't. Will I see it upon playback somewhere in the camera display? If so...

My understanding is that Varizoom is the most reliable and best match for the DVX100B for Remote controlling Iris, Zoom & FOCUS thru the unique Lanc Cables Via the Dual Port configuration on that camera. http://www.spec-comm.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=458 I've also read here on...

Hi Gang :Drogar-Shock(DBG): I posted a query here last month about trying to avoid using my two DVX100B's for capture. (Giving them a break). I bought a good used PV-GS29 off Ebay and later realized it absolutely would NOT be recognized thru FW 1394. Not through a PC nor my G5. Luckily I was...

Hi Gang I have two DVX100B's - One has about 175 hours, the other about 190 Hours. I sparingly use a cleaner tape, (they're not recommended). I do have a Mac Warranty that covers Cleaning, but somehow I don't completely trust Mack, or parting with the camera for that long. Anyway, (unless I'm...
