DVC PROHD to HD CAM SR transfer

[Phil Maker]

My film is completed, color corrected etc. It is DVC PRO HD 1080 24pa, 125 gigs total, edited in FCP.

I'm having it transferred to HD CAM SR.

My question is, how do I prepare the film for the transfer?

My main concern is that I want it to be full quality.

Do I need to export it?

Any help would be appreciated.

I would say export it from FCP as an Animation or Uncompressed. You shouldn't lose any quality.

How do you export it uncompressed? I tried exporting it as a QT movie with current settings, make movie self contained, and it came out 65gigs. The project is 125 gigs. Can you explain step by step what I need to do? Thanks!

I think I figured it out. I'm exporting it as Uncompressed, 422, 10 bit.
