AF100 / AF101 + nanoFlash

It would be wonderful if you could elaborate on your experience using the NanoFlash. I'm especially curious how it interacts with the 150 -- as that's one of the things I may be doing.

So far, it works great. No problem noticed, and it adds a few features that the 150 does not have, which will be included in the AF100.

I just had a review meeting a few hours ago with the results of the first testing, and we are quite glad we added it to the production process.

All the best.
 
Dear Friends,

I would like to report that we have been testing 128 GB CompactFlash cards with the nanoFlash for approximately the last month.

These Axtremex (a new brand) have passed all of our tests.

Thus, the nanoFlash, at Broadcast Quality, 50 Mbps, can now record, uninterruptd for approximately 10 hours and 40 minutes, using two of these new cards.
This 128 GB card also supports up to 220 Mbps, which is much higher in quality than required for broadcast.

And we have also tested an Axtremex 64 GB 600x Plus card that supports up to 280 Mbps.

These cards will be available in approximately three weeks.

Great news Dan. Any word on pricing or who will be carrying them?
 
Dear Friends,

I waited a long time to reply.

I wanted to wait until the CompactFlash cards were almost here.

The 128 GB CompactFlash cards, a 600x card, with up to 90 Megabytes per second for Reads and up to 60 Megabytes per second for writes.

In the nanoFlash, this card has been tested and works well at 220 Mbps. In fact, our lab has been testing this card 24/7 since about November 1, 2010.

These cards are on the way to www.nanoFlash.net from the UK at this moment. The price is $489.95.

Since they are due to arrive tomorrow by Noon, one can order these cards now and have them shipped tomorrow, December 23, 2010.

The cards have a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer and are the world's first shipping 128 GB cards.

Hi

Just gotten my AF, am looking for an external recorder. Nanoflash sounds terrific but I have done some google searches and realised that FCP crashes often when dealing with XDCAM 422. (nanoflash mov is XDCAM 422 codec right?)

Am new to FCP 7, can anyone verify this?
 
I have been using the NF with FCP for years and I have not had it crash using the EXcam codec. I am currently using 7.0.3. No problems. Fast drives preferably raids help a lot to keep things running smoothly. I can do this on my MBP or any of my MP's with 4 and 8 cores just fine. I use anywhere from 35mb/s to 280mb/s with no trouble at all.

I also use AJA Kona cards and Matrox MX02, this really helps to see what you really have on Pro Monitors. Computer monitors are not good for editing.

I always set the sequence to render Prores422. This is in render settings in the sequence settings, but the timeline is set to EXcam codec if that is the first clip you drop in it, or set it that way from the start.
 
I have been using a nanoFlash for a year in conjunction with Final Cut Pro. No issues whatsoever. Like Olof said, set your sequence render settings to render in ProRes422, it speeds up workflow in in the end. Never had a crash from using nanoFlash generated files. I've had crashes from bum frames in Sony XDCAM EX files but not from the nanoFlash.
