    [FS: General] HVX205A with P2 Cards and More

    The camera is in great shape and takes great images. From 1080p to 720 24p and 24pn with variable frame rates, you've got a whole lot of options with this bad boy. I bought it to shoot weddings and that just never took off for me. 483 Hours. Also included: 2 64GB E-Series P2 Cards 3 5400mAh...

    Using Two P2 Cards

    I've been shooting with my HVX with a single 64GB card for a while now. If I got close to the limit, I'd have to stop for an hour and download the card to a computer. I've got another card now, just came today, and I'm wondering about the logistics. For instance, can I say, I want shots 1-5 on...

    Horizontal Through The Wall Transition

    Trying to figure out the best way to pull off a room to room transition. Left to right horizontal. Think Aerosmith/Run DMC (it's pretty common, but that's the one that came to mind.) Obviously, no soundstage or set. The two rooms are in two different locations. I don't think I'll have a...

    Audio Interference

    Audio Interference

    I was handed a wedding that was shot on HDV, and every now and then I'm noticing some weird audio interference going on, sort of a higher pitched version of what it sounds like when you're spinning a radio dial. Couldn't seen to isolate it in STP and I imagine I'm just going to have to live with...

    Band Lights Equal Crazy Weirdness

    I don't know what kind of lights this band had up, but they really wreaked havoc with my images. HVX200A, DV - 720 x 480 to P2 There were these green and blue lights focused on the band. Anything that fell within the beams of these lights wound up with these vertical lines. I don't even know...

    Field Dominance Question

    So I thought I screwed up big time. I shot a wedding to P2 at 480i/24p. (Only one card, so I wouldn't have had space to shoot 720.) I brought the footage into FCP on a 29.97 timeline (because, hey, that's what you gotta do when you shoot 480i, right?) Anyway, it was crazy messed up. Flickering...

    Impossible to log from tape on new iMac?

    So I've got a new iMac. You know, the one's with one friggin' firewire port? I got a G drive to go with it, and while I was able to Log and Transfer using a four pin to nine pin cable piggy backing my HVX to the G Drive (from P2), I've got some tape that I need to capture, and it just isn't...

    Setting up the HVX200A for Broadcast Master

    Someone wants a camera that will output 1080 (59.94i) via HDSDI output BNC with embedded audio. My best guess is that we're hooking up to a production truck and this is going to be used for post-game interviews. Anyway, I've got the HVX200A. I just shoot and edit in FPC, so I've never done a...

    Fames Per Second Discrepancy

    So, I had my HVX set up to shoot to P2 at 480i/24p. The thing is, when I brought the footage into FCP, all the clips were 29.97. Does anyone know why?

    Time Code Not Displaying

    There seems to be a problem with the UB display on my HVX200A. I have to shoot to tape tonight, and all I'm getting at the top of the display when I hit play is UB 9, and then a digit that's going crazy, "OF 30" 8 and then another digit that's going crazy. I first noticed this when I started...

    1280x720 v. 960x720

    I'm a little confused as to how my HVX200A shoots to P2. I guess my main concern is whether the DVCPro HD 960x720 project I'm about to create in AE is going to play well with 720p/24n footage that I shoot with the camera in an FCP timeline?

    Too Many Targets!!!

    I've formatted my 500GB WD External drive using Disc Utility a couple of different ways. The thing is clean and I've done it with 1 partition and empty space. No matter what, whenever I plug that thing into the HVX and use 1394 Host to try and format it and dump footage, I always get the "Too...

    Fast Motion to Real Time

    So I can set the camera to 24p and shoot at 12 or 10, but I know I can't change back to 24 in the middle of a clip. So how do I get a smooth transition from fast to normal?

    Splotches

    I'm having a hard time figuring out what these spots are. My lens looks pretty clean, and all the other video I shot that day doesn't have these spots. since this was one of the first shots...I don't get it. http://www.vimeo.com/10293203

    FCP to STP Glitch

    I shot a long (45 minute) interview recently that I needed to edit to about 3 minutes. I cut it in FCP, and I used footage without the audio for cutaways and a 2nd video track. I took the whole thing into Soundtrack Pro to reduce noise, and when it came back, a good portion of the audio was...

    AVCHD and DVCPROHD?

    I have an HVX200A. Sooner or later I'm going to need a second camera. If I bought the HMC40, what kind of problems would I run into mixing the footage from these cameras on the same FCP timeline?

    Formatting External Drive

    Hey guys, So my first P2 arrived today, a 64GB E-Series. I put the card in the camera, shot some footage, and Woohoo! HD, Baby! I love those thumbnails! The thing is, I can't figure out how to get it on my external drive! I had a previous post concerning what I was going to do about...

    P2 Strategy

    I've got a feeling I'm going to be getting P2 media for my HVX200A in the near future. It looks like I can get a 32 and a 64 for about $1600, and I just might be able to do it. Shooting 24pN, this is going to give me about 4 hours of film time, so my question is, what if I'm shooting a wedding...
