So... what is your Cam/NLE combination?

[Wilbur Eddings]

Interesting to know what everybody uses.

I has an Af100 and CS5.

 

[Gary Huff]

HPX-170, 60D, Premiere CS5.5 and FCP 7.

EDIT: Hey, Wilbur, what happened to your Starcraft avatar?

Change is as good as a holiday

My long form editor loves FCP7 too, I hate Mac, not sure why, it's kind of a BMW vs Audi thing I guess. (I hate BMW for absolutely no reason whatsoever.)

 

[Gary Huff]

I have both a Mac and a Windows 7 desktop that I built myself. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. I primarily edit on the desktop.

 

[David Jimerson]

No Mac vs. PC stuff, please.

 

[Butcher]

Used to be HPX170 and Avid. Changed jobs, now it's Red/XDCam/DSLR/Alexa and FCP. If FCPX doesn't pan out I'm pushing to move to Premiere. Whatever works best and fits the budget.

 

[Mark Williams]

Panasonic HPX170 and Edius 5.5

Um... With all due respect, that was unnecessary.
I think people should be able to share their differences of opinion within the rules of this forum, regardless of previous trolling, flaming and my preference for a Blackberry Storm 2 over an iPhone. (Unless I am wrong and then I shall happily repent and be on my merry way).

Panasonic HPX170 and Edius 5.5

Edius looks awesome, I had a friend who was trying to get me to move over to it but (like Vegas) I just couldn't get into it. I think I like CS5 so much because of my history with Cubase and Nuendo, it almost feels like I am editing audio.
What is it about Edius that you enjoy? (My friend did some killer grading with it and ended up just using it for everything).

LMAO... wait, that lens on the front of that camera makes the whole thing look remarkably similar to an Af100 with a 14/140. hahahaha
Except the Battery is on the front instead of the back! Rolfmao dude!

 

[awelgraven]

Two GH2's & one hacked GH1(3), and Final Cut Studio 3

 

[James Carpenter]

HPX170 and HMC150 with CS5, no issues with it and love CS5.

 

[Gary Huff]

Interesting combo there, flambe. Do you transcode the AVCHD to DVCPRO HD when cutting the two together? Or just leave them each native?

 

[Alpha Beta Omega]

AF101 and CS5 is a sweet combination and that's what I use. Have been on Avid for fifteen years but the easy of use and the fact one can edit on both WIN7 and OSX is a big plus. Love the integration of the Adobe products also.

How do you experience your workflow speed in comparison to Avid?

Please begin the merry repentance.

 

[Sniper1154]

T2i and CS5 - so far so good

 

[Hawk Teflon]

T2i/H4n and FCP

Ha! Now thread hijacking as well!

Enough of the light saber wielding, come clean on what Cam/NLE you use like the rest of the mortals here! (Ducks a swipe from the ban hammer).

Inherited the HMC from our arctic office but haven't use both on the same shoot yet. I imagine I would keep them native if I ever had to though.
