I am a new user of this forum and am thinking about buying a Canon XL1s or a Sony PD150.
On reading I hear that there are more problems with firewire cards and software for the Canon as opposed to the Sony.
Can anyone recommend a tried and tested card/software for the Canon. I live in Australia and the Camera is a PAL system.
A tech at Canopus here in Oz felt that I would have less problems with the Sony. He indicated they had problems with the XL1 but did not know about the XL1S.
I really like the Canon, but I need to have a trouble free setup.
I will be editing large video files. (60 minutes of video). This will not be major editing - Titles, a few transitions and maybe moving a few frames. I also need to be able to record back to the DV tape in the camera with the final result.
Any help would be much appreciated.
