Have you looked at the nNovia Quick-Capture A2D? Don't have an personal experience with it but looks interesting.

Glad I could help. Here is a interesting article that compares several tapeless storage solutions.

Page 3 talks about the nNovia QuickCapture A2D

Another note is that the unit is available in different battery mounting configurations and one is a Anton Bauer mount.

I believe Douglas Spotted Eagle has a couple of QuickCapture A2D's, you might write to him directly to get his opinion. If I'm not mistaken, he thinks quite highly of them.

I saw a preview of this unit from this site:

http://www.gdbint.com.au/Product.aspx?pID=352&ptype=p

I can't find much about it on the net but it looks so dreamy! Being able to swap out media drives and hdv support via firewire. Lots of cool features that I wish the firestore had.

Does anyone know anything about this unit?

Jonathan Nelson · July 11th, 2006, 01:53 AM

well, I thought it was cool.

Chris Hocking · July 11th, 2006, 02:29 AM

Looking at the photo, it seems quite big. Not really something you can attach to the bottom of our camera and carry around with you. But I could be wrong.

The specs look impressive, although I've never heard of nNovia before. You'd want to test drive it before purchasing.

Interesting never-the-less!

I agree, it does look rather big. I have heard alot of good reports from people using Nnovia and so I am going to keep an eye out for this unit.

The nNovia A2D does capture DV via firewire.
I have been doing it for two years. Works good.

Hello,
I know that with the FS-4 you can open it up, put in a larger laptop hard drive, and void your warranty. Is it possible to do this with the Quick capture?

Thanks,
Luke :^)
