I went back to Best Buy again a few days ago to play with the camera again. I shot more footage and have streamlined my workflow here at home. I’m still cutting in Vegas then mastering in AE, but I’m converting the HD to SD now using Streamclip. It’s free, fast, and does a great job! My offline resolution is 240, half of normal DV. On my computer though, it still looks good and plays at full framerate.
In anticipation of hopefully getting the camera soon, I purchased two extra batteries and a charger today on ebay. Less than $20 for all three items. No complaints there. I’m stuck now. I will be shooting with this camera.
The visual effects for the opening are coming along. They still need some work, but they’re looking good.
That’s pretty much it for now. Not too exciting I know, but it’s something. Please continue to keep the picture in your prays.
