Native 24F FCP is (almost) here! at DVinfo.net

According to Mike Curtis over at HD for Indies, Apple will be shipping a new XL H1 24F friendly version of FCP in about a month.

Not too clear whether this is a purchased upgrade or a simple downloadable one...I'm thinking we'll have to buy.

I wonder if it will require 5.1.. probably.. I hate changes in my cage...

Yep. Looks like 5.1 is required.

Tim Dashwood has gotten a hold of some more info, and posted in the JVC forum:

Tim's Post:

The reports are starting to flow in from IBC. Mike Curtis has posted some info at HDforIndies, and our very own Chris Hurd is on the floor in Amsterdam collecting information for us.

Bottom line: No more fiddling with LumiereHD, HDVxDV, DVHSCap or MPEGStreamclip.

FCP 5.1.2 will fully support the capture (with TC), editing, and output of JVC's ProHD 720P24 and 720P25 (along with the already long-time supported 720P30.)
The only catch is that we will probably have to wait until October for the release.

This free update will only be available to FCP5.1 owners. If you own FCP5.0 or an earlier version, now is the perfect time to order your Universal Crossgrade to FCS 5.1.

If v5.1 is installed on your system, you should be able to run the software update app from the Apple menu to automatically update FCP 5.1 or 5.1.1 to 5.1.2. (when the update is officially released.)

Rumour is this release will also add:
P2 faster import, batch import, preview before import
XDCAM HD native support for all frame rates and resolutions
Canon 24F native support

I would like to see some 24F footage.

I'm spreading this pic everywhere, but I assume you guys would want to see it too; Mikko Wilson took a photo of the easy setups in 5.1.2
