I am sure you will dig the EX1R, it is a great camera. A producer friend of mine is shooting a green screen feature with that exact setup, EX1s with the NanoFlashes, he just asked me my opinion about doing so the other day. I wrote an article in this month's HD Video Pro Magazine about outboard recording devices, the NanoFlash is a pretty impressive little box. I reviewed the NanoFlash, the AG-HPG20 P2 recorder, the Ki-Pro, the Focus...

I have to agree with Noah. I would contact an attorney. Not all laws are set in stone. Hard drives today are at an all time low cost per gigabyte. Burning the data to Blu-Ray and backing up to LTO/DLT are also reasonable options. Steve Eisen Eisen Video Productions Board of Directors Chicago Final Cut Pro Users Group

One thing I do know is not to pose a question to an attorney client that I don't have the answer to. They look at us as their outside consultant/expert so I need to find out if any case law in IL is relevant to erasing the media the original event was shot on. I have a post into the LinkedIn Litigation Specialists group and the Yahoo Legal Video group so perhaps someone on the legal side can let us video folks know what's up. I do...

It would probably have a nice image, but unless they do something with the 12 minutes limit and lack of sound control it would probably be of not mush use as a main video camera.

Sorry Cliff, the only way to get the camera in that mode is to hold down the button for 2 secs, this is true if you are hooking up the camera via USB or Firewire. Skimmed over your post because I know nothing about Vista. So just clarifying, that is not a fix but the actual procedure that is in the manual.

Can I ask why?

Yeah I doubt highly the law has bothered to catch up specifically with P2 cards but that's why I recommended discussing with the attorneys involved. In this case it's less about what the law specifically states than what the parties agree to accept- isn't it? If there's a doubt, yeah go with a tape. No reason to blow a gig over something where they probably are not caring what it's shot on so long as they follow the...

I have found the settings in the manual. Still not shure about: -The difference between 'Letterbox' and 'Squeeze'. Is Letterbox a true 16:9 or does it just but the black bands on the footage? - The small black line on top of the footage (recorded in 4:3) when viewed in Sony Vegas. Thank you. I want to learn...

Nicholas, can you let me know what solution you ended up using. I am having the same issue...we had a 3 cam shoot and the cams were set to 720/30PN, but one of them was in "film" mode which I guess recorded it at 23.98. Like you said, the footage plays fast when loaded into FCP and I can't seem to find any setting to get it normal speed. Thanks! HPX-2000 w/AVC board P2 Mobile with AVC board MBP 10.5

I would be curious if anyone has used the Sennheiser ME66 as an external micropone on the HPX170. I have these two units, but as I understand it, the Sennheiser ME66 is a low impedance microphone while the XLR inputs on the HPX170 are high impedance. That makes me, a newbie, think the two are incompatible. Radio Shack and others sell impedance adapters, http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062443 but they all seem to connect...
