HVX200a with Canon EOS RedRock M2 Encore

not trying to be argumentative. but i havent heard any reviews from anyone who loves the af100. everyone i know who has one is kind of "eh" on it...
 
I like that from my HVX I can either log and capture through firewire to FCP or use my Citidisk HD(also firewire). I got the impression I could do neither from the AF-100. Is that right?
 
Not argumentative at all- But I love both my AF100 (as do many, though not all, on the AF100 forum) and my HPX170.
No regrets. Can't be beat for the money. There is a learning curve in dialing it in though.

Renee, I don't know FCP, but I think with an SD card reader you can L&T to FCP without any problems. Many are using FCP + AF100.

I would imagine you could rent an AF100 in SF, I think they can be had for $250ish/day in many areas (I think some out of state rental houses even deliver at $250/day), though you'd be dealing with opening the EF aperture on the Canon body as I noted before.
You could try it at your office in a controlled lighting situation.
But a test drive might be beneficial in seeing if the look of the camera, and the editing workflow are something you and your boss would be interested in.
 
Before I even do that, groveChuck, would you send me like, a minute of footage off a card? I could noodle around with it and figure some workflow out.
 
Sure. I don't think I have any 1 minute clips right now, and especially none with the entire card structure (which FCP needs, but CS5 doesn't), but I'll get you one ASAP.
 
I have CS5 Production so I could use Premier, I just currently don't use it! If you gimme your email I can add you to my dropbox.
